shellfish --> oysters, mussels, clams etc
Honestly I think the first neanderthal to open a mussel would have been thinking "there's no way I'm eating that! -..where's its eyes, hands and feet???..." but then ...starvation crept in and they ate it out of desperation...
I do however LOVE crayfish and crab Yummy - anything with claws ( in the sea )
