You're either a sugar or salt guy. I'm addicted to salt. Will you pick up a bag of ranch sunflower seeds for example or a bag of sour patch kids. What side of this fence you on? If you straddle the fence do not repond to this thread.

Salt until about 10pm. Then I'll eat every cookie or cake in the house, if I can find them. Don't know why, but it just happens.

BOTH are addictive. Corporate has it added to everything we eat because they're afraid we might forget to add it ourselves thus ending the addiction.

Have been canning my own spaghetti sauce and the way I feel compared to when I eat Prego from the store is like night and day. The corn syrup and salt that I DON'T add makes my home-made sauce so much more tasty and healthy. I can tell in how I feel. I can actually taste all the flavors including the Parmisian cheese instead of it being overwhelmed by high-fructose corn syrup and salt.

Both together, sweet and salty has to be one of the best combos.

Chocolate covered bacon, or chocoloate covered pretzels. Can't beat em

I like salty vs sweet most of the time.

It's salt for me. I rarely eat sweets.

Have you tried these?

Salty for me. Can't wait to get my hands on some quahogs.

Have you tried deeznuts??? They're salty from what I've been told.

I just googled little neck clams and it looks like we are talking about the same thing. These ones tatse like concentrated sea water, go unbelievably well with cold beer and the bigger ones have a purple color on the inside of the shell

Yea for sure. Just wanted to make sure you knew I wasn't slurping no cherrystone or chowder quohogs.

Gotcha, here they are just sorted small, medium, large. No confusing names to make people think there are different species of identical looking clams.

Have either of you ever had razor clams? My neighbor brings quite a few gallons back with him from Alaska every summer, and I had some last year. They were pretty freaking awesome, but we don't have them around here.

Yes they are very good. They're on longisland but I would always trash them with my clam rake cuz they are so fragile.

That's yet another reason to use your feet. Using a rake is too much like work, and not enough like beer drinking listening to tunes in the summer sunshine. I've never been out-clammed by my friends who insist on using rakes.

Drag your foot across a razor clam and you'll going home to drink shine

Nonsense. You don't drag your feet, you walk.

Razor clams are very comon around here, but barely anybody goes after them. They taste great, but Bar clams live in the same places, taste almost the same (better actualy) are easier to catch and are much, much bigger. Razor clams can dig faster than you can, so digging one is hard. The trick is to find their holes at low tide, and pour VERY salty water into the holes. Then you just wait for them to pop out of the sand on their own.

I also prefer feeling around with my feet for quahogs. Or sometimes I will snorkel and feel with my hands. Its pretty cool the stuff you see while snorkeling that you would miss otherwise.

It is amazing how fast they dig. That's a sweet trick. they take time to steak out as well. They are sharp as hell and if you try diggin those with your feet you're gunna go home in a body bag.

Just had to Google them. Is the easiest difference that their shells are black/darker?

Razor clams?i

Bar clams

They are shaped a bit different than little necks, or whatever you call quahogs, live in different habitats and are much bigger. 9 times out of 10, that is what you get if you order clam strips at a restaurant.

little necks or quohogs


Razor



steamers

The bearded clam is the best.

False. Its a scientific fact that a 2-2 1/2 inch quahog on the half shell is the best.

I'll take a bearded clam(pussy) over that any day.
