Well, I hope he went digging for geoducks. Now that is a dirty job.

In Washington State there is (was?) a limit of three geoducks per licensed digger.

It is not to protect the geoduck. It is to protect the digger.

Something Jim Beard wrote about geoduck came to mind when reading this but naturally I've given the book away to someone and can not find what he wrote posted anywhere on the internet (in a quick search).

Instead there was this interesting entry on the Wine Lovers Page quoted from David Kamp's Food Snob's Dictionary .

Quote: Puget Sound Geoduck, an "alarmingly phallic siphon that hangs, John Holmes-like, out of its shell."

Curious. I wonder who John Holmes is.

Off to search.

Amazing the things one learns each day.
