MUSSEL

an almond shaped shellfish, cheap and plentiful, found along the coasts. Many connoisseurs consider it as palatable as the oyster, but it has never yet attained full popular favor. It can be eaten raw like the oyster, but is generally cooked.

Bottled pickled mussels have recently found some demand.
