Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Now here's something I just can't do: bring myself to think about fried clams on November 1. November is the time for apples and Thanksgiving and football. Fried clams belong in July or August, the months of humidity, beaches, and sides of cole slaw.
But today is National Deep Fried Clams Day (not really sure why the word "deep" has to be in there). Confuse your family tonight by insisting they go to a seafood place and order fried clams and nothing else. Or use one of these recipes: this one from Gourmet uses clam strips, while this one from RecipeZaar uses the bellies too.

Deep Fried Clam Strips != Deep Fried Clam Bellies!
Clam strips are made from the foot of sea clams (yuck!). Clam bellies are the ONLY way to serve deep fried clams. Period. :)

clam strips were made from cardboard. Amazing the things you learn here.
