Reply to comment by JustMe-male in TIL with Scallops, only the abductor muscle is eaten by humans. The rest of the meat, which is edible, may contain a buildup of toxins, and is discarded at sea. by testhec10ck

You can eat it, puts it in mouth.

However, it might be toxic, spits it out.

I’d rather choose a dish that I don’t have to spit out on my plate sometimes. Also, do you detect the toxins in your mouth or hours later when you’re balled up on the bathroom floor?
