sugar or salt

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.
I've heard that it's incredibly stupid to fuck around with a crazy man's head.

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

I like salty vs sweet most of the time.
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.” ― Samuel Adams

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

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?

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.

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