OPEN POST: If it looks like a phallus what does it taste like?




Introducing the Geoduck! I love eating Geoduck. It agrees with my body, and it is quite healthy to consume. Do you know how you find Geoducks? They squirt a briney watery liquid straight out of the tip. You dig it out, and the fun begins. Some are so thick you can barely get your hand around them. Others are long and thin; some are little stubs; no two look alike for the most part. 

The word Geoduck comes from Lushootseed, a dialect of the Native American language called Salish spoken in the Washington area. It is not pronounced how it looks-Geoduck is Gooey-duck. So when you get your hand on one of these, you will know how to pronounce it correctly.


Geoducks can be found in the North Pacific from coastal Alaska down to Baja, California. In China, it is considered an aphrodisiac; Korean and Japanese people consider it a delicacy, and cooks sometimes use them in various street foods in all three countries. Some restaurants in the Seattle area serve it in the States; usually, you can find it in places specializing in Asian cuisine.


I had my first Geoduck in Portland, Oregon. I will always remember the experience because the flavor was slightly creamy and had been on a special menu in a Japanese restaurant. I am no longer a virgin to the giant clam, and it would be nice to have a large, tasty, tender one again; Yummy. Try it. I know you hors will find it divine.
