There's Nothing Finer Than The Love Mussel

MONCTON, NEW BRUNSWICK--The Maritimes might be better known for their lobster and their cod, but one of the tastiest treats to come out of the Atlantic Ocean is the Love Mussel. This muscular manly mollusk is so desirable, it has been known to cause women to feint.

The Atlantic Love Mussel is a delicious female favourite.

The Atlantic Love Mussel has a unique shape, and it gets its name from its reputation as a lovemaking enhancer.

"It is said that the love mussel, like the oyster, is an aphrodisiac," said Pierre Bonhomme, a 4-and-a-half star chef at a popular Atlantic eatery. "In fact, it is by itself a true tool of love."

Women seem to enjoy this delicious salty treat more than the men. They just can't wait to get their hands on the love mussel. Of all the shellfish in the sea, its popularity is second only to the bearded clam.

The love mussel is popular steamed, smoked, or even raw. But everyone will agree that it is best swallowed whole.

"I love the way it tickles the back of my throat as it's going down," said Loretta McDougall, a love mussel enthusiast who can't wait to get her hands on the firm, pink meat. "I can't explain it, but eating a love mussel is almost as satisfying as sex."

The love mussel is very potent in soups, and very stimulating as an appetizer served with vegetables or rice. Sometimes it's just as good when it comes on its own.

Size isn't important when it comes to ordering the love mussel, as it can be bought by the pound, or served by the bucket-full. But wherever the love mussel is ordered, it always comes to the table gushing with flavour, often bubbling in its own juices.

Although the love mussels are mostly served in the finest seafood restaurants in St John's, Halifax, and Dartmouth, the succulent seafood also can be cooked at home. Most recipes suggest that the love mussel be boiled until the tender meat is entirely swollen.
