Knobbed Whelk (Busycon carica)
While both the knobbed whelk and the lightning whelk have knobs on the edge of each whorl, the knobbed whelks on Assateague beach can be distinguished from the lightning whelks mainly by their right-sided openings (most gastropods are "right-sided") and their slightly larger knobs.

Knobbed whelks grow to eight or nine inches in shallow water along the coast from Massachusetts to northern Florida.

Like lightning whelks, knobbed whelks feed on clams, and the females lay strings of egg capsules attached by one end in the sand.

I used to eat whalks 40 years ago when we went up to Blackpool! Tasty and rather chewy (OK, Starwars fans).
They are predators, they have a little Black-and-Decker in their mouths, to drill into oysters and such, and then they suck the contents out.
There, don't you feel better now you know that?

It's early in spring when we round up the whelks,
we rope 'em and brand 'em and bob oft their tails,
we round up the horses and load the chuck wagon,
And throw those little whelks right out on the trail,

Chorus:
Whoopee Ti-Yi-Yo, get along little whelks,
It's your misfortune and non of my own,
Whoopee Ti-Yi-Yo, get along little whelks,
you know that New Jersey will be your new home.

(I decided on New Jersey because I just learned that the knobbed whelk has been designated as the official State Sea Shell. For you folks in other countries, every state in the US has an official state bird, flower, tree, animal and song. For some reason, that's not enough, and more recently, each state has selected an official mineral, insect, alcoholic mixed drink, dessert, method of giving the finger, the list goes on.)

Hey, I just noticed the add at the bottom of the page. I can get whelks delivered to my door with online secure ordering. Whoopee.

You can fool some of the whelks some of the time, but you can't fool all of the whelks all of the time.

We hold this right to be self evident, that all whelks were created equally chewy.

I had to eat them.
At the Hull Maritime Museum I learned that fishermen had mallets on board to smash the crusts for using them as baits.
A whole thread long I was annoyed by random remarks about whelks and their price (£ 57.00) instead of giving vital information.

Now I finally I know what they are and how they look.
Thanks a lot, Giok!

Can you tenderise a whelk in pressure cooker. Then what would it be like? Is a whelk like a barnacle - they look very similar. Can you eat barnacles?

Yes you can do whelks in pressure cookers. First slice your whelks very thinly and place in the cooker with just enough water to cover. Add root vegetables of your choice, one crushed garlic clove, two bay leaves, a chicken stock cube and seasoning. Place the lid firmly on the vessel and cook for 3 hours. Decant the contents into a large dish or bowl.















Throw away the contents of the dish and EAT THE PRESSURE COOKER!

well i always had the feeling that if you cracked a barnacle you would discover something fibrous and snail like within. mind you I never did - so who knows - obviously (I hear you answer)a man acquainted with goose barnacles....! what a great thing the internet is. all these years I might have laboured under the under a complete misaprehension about the nature of whelks and barnacles.

I never got food poisoning off a whelk, but I did off some crab in Filey. I think it had been languishing in the sun under polythene in a hut selling crabs and the like one sunny day.

Thank you Wilfried, for you birthday wishes. Apart from Pene Azul, who forgets nobody's birthday, I thought it had gone unnoticed. Nobody even thought to send me suitably garnished whelk to mark the occasion. I did have a nice day/weekend, with meals out two days running,[What diet?] as somebody said, I'm turning 40, and taking my time about it.

And "one sunny day" is about right for Filey too! One a year!
Not much to do there on wet days, which probably accounts for the crab epidemic!!!
Think I'd rather have whelks than crabs.......

Giok, have just spoken to the whelk who's picture started all this and he says that he doesn't like you much either. Not only did you not get his "good" side, you also called him "common".

Apparently even whelks have a sensitive side and Tarquin McShell is no different, despite his rugged exterior he is very much in touch with his feminine side. Indeed his scones are the talk of the local W.I.

He, therefore, requests that you withdraw your shellist remarks.
