I don’t know if the Maryland river has mussels in it or not, it’s pretty wild down there at the moment.
I wouldn’t eat them but it’s the prepper in me that would like to know.

Have them with plenty of salt then it will be salt & prepper.

> seawater was introduced into the lower Vasse River in south-western Australia to control harmful algal blooms … Carter’s freshwater mussel.

Damn environmentalists, killing off natural algal blooms.

Anyway, the mussels will recover.
