I hope that whatever killed this whale doesn't affect the scallops:

Hi Phil,

Not to worry !
Just stick with " US Deep Sea Scollops' .... They're harvested offshore in the cold Atlantic on the continental shelf.

Stay away from bay scollops which are smaller ..... plus most come from overseas.

The only bay scollops I will ever purchase is "Nantucket Sound Bay Scollops" harvested in cold water and very tender and sweet ! ..... hard to find, and there's a short season to harvest them.
