...The majority of shrimp sold in the U.S. is imported. This is unfortunate not only because of the problems of habitat (mangrove) destruction and the use of chemicals and antibiotics in other countries, but also because some of the world's best shrimp come from right here in the U.S!

A rare and unusual treat that we love have been popping up lately—Maine Razor Clams. With a long shell shaped like a straight razor and a foot that's as long as its body, it's one weird looking critter...Some of the reasons that these clams are rare at market is because harvesting is difficult and they are very brittle, fragile, don't travel well and are very perishable. Our Razor Clam supplier, Harbor Fish in Portland Maine, gives us a heads-up whenever they have them but unfortunately that is not often enough.
