Did you know?
Razor clams get their name from their shell’s resemblance to an old-fashioned straight razor.
They’re fast burrowers, often disappearing into sand in seconds when disturbed.
In the U.S., razor clamming is a popular activity in Pacific Northwest coastal states like Washington and Oregon.
They’re a sustainable seafood, as they’re wild-harvested with low environmental impact.
Drawback
Can accumulate toxins like domoic acid if harvested in unsafe conditions—always check local advisories.
Their shells are very sharp, so caution is needed when cleaning or foraging.
May cause allergies in sensitive individuals, as with other shellfish.
Always check for the MSC label.
