Scallops over an open fire...

[Bill Lins]

Also we were told about "Skate". If your scallops at the "All you can eat" buffet appear to be a uniform size then most likely they were punched out from a hunk of skate. More common than you would think... I need to find out what "Skate" is slang for.....

Part of the shark/ray family. Down here the same is said of the wings of sting rays- they take a cookie-cutter type thing & punch 'em out. Nothing wrong with it- good, clean white meat.

But it ain't scallops!

So I can punch out little rounds of steak, and call 'em scallops?!

Never heard of them, tell us more.

MMMMMMMMMMMMM they are the most delicious dessert known to man! At least to this man! Well they are basically a donut with crushed peanut coating...the finer crushed the better. The long version is known as a Peanut Stick. They are available in the Buffalo, NY area (where we are originally from).

Now don't tell me you have never heard of Sponge Candy either? That's also a good chaser after a peanut donut for dessert.
