That location's Yelp rating just went up LOL. Fun story, glad she didn't end up swallowing it. Thanks for sharing.

Wow! It's great that she bit into it, if she'd have swallowed it she'd have never known...

Maybe we should all check our stools prior to flushing, after eating clams! Imagine how many black pearls have been flushed unknowingly!
