Clam is a common name for several kinds of bivalve mollusc. The word is often applied only to those that are deemed edible and live as infauna, spending most of their lives halfway buried in the sand of the sea floor or riverbeds. Clams have two shells of equal size connected by two adductor muscles and have a powerful burrowing foot. [1]

Raw fish should be frozen to an internal temperature of −20 °C (−4 °F) for at least 7 days to kill parasites; home freezers may not be cold enough.

Harvesters locate the clam by looking for a "show," which can present as either a hole or depression in the sand. [8] Some clams expose their siphons as the surf is receding making them far easier to spot; this behavior is called "necking". [9] Razor clams are commonly battered and fried in butter.
