Sorry to break the news to you ianhlnd, but high aluminum levels do not cause Alzheimer's, but rather Alzheimer's causes high aluminum levels . . . according to conclusive research done years ago, busting this 20 year old myth.

Alzheimer's Society Factsheet

We love steamed clams and mussels gathered from our local waters, along with the wide variety of other sea foods, including New England lobster. During season we live on the stuff and have many recipes to share . . . later when I have more time.

I took a glance at your gallery shellfish photos - nice presentations. One thing that turned me off with the mussels though, was the appearance of barnacles and beards still clinging to the shells. Could be just my way of doing things, but I always scrape and pull this stuff off before cooking . . .
