I'd Challenge You To Tell The Difference From Fresh (In Certain Dishes)

I first tried Bumble Bee Snow's Ocean Chopped Clams when the state issued a temporary advisory to not consume fresh clams because of arsenic levels. My Clam Chowder had been specifically requested by a birthday party guest of honor. It was the first time I'd used canned and I was sure the final product would be subpar. Luckily, I found some tips online about using canned clams, the most important making sure not one grain of sand would be found. That was accomplished by separating the liquid and the clams, rinsing the clams multiple times and processing the liquid through layers and layers of cheesecloth. When I served the finished vat of chowder, I half expected to immediately be busted for using canned clams. I wasn't. Every since, I've used canned. Living near the beach and multiple fresh seafood outlets, people make assumptions and I let them. These big cans make buying canned economical and I love the savings with Subscribe & Save. I wouldn't try to pass them off in more delicate soups or featured with pasta, but in creamy thick chowder or deep fried fritters, they can't be beat.

Wonderful clams

We just used these clams in our Super Bowl Clam Chowder and everyone raved over the wonderful clams. Firm and just the right amount of chewiness. I just ordered another can for our next chowder. Easily the best clams for the money that I can find now that our Sam's Club no longer sells the big cans.

GREAT PRODUCT

It is hard to find a large can of clams in the local stores. The smaller cans are 1.99 each. We make clam spaghetti and I like to use the large cans. This brand was great in value and flavor. The clams smelled nice for canned and the taste level was there. I will purchase this again and keep one in the cupboard. Be aware of the expiration date.

Great clams for chowder!

I love clam chowder! These are nice size cans for a small pot of clam chowder, they were really good and barely any sand with them.

GREAT PRODUCT

Great value. The product is just what I expected, quality. I've purchased Bumble Bee Snow Clams many times in the grocery store. I save three dollars and I live in NJ. It's the convenience of it being in one large 3.3 pound can. I use it for clam chowder soup, white clam sauce and freeze it in smaller size containers. It's great. Dinners done in minutes. For those that dont know this, CLAMS HAVE THE HIGHEST IRON CONTANT OF ALL FOODS.

Great size!

I make clam chowder often and in big batches. This is the perfect size and easier than opening the little cans! I also use these to make baked clams.

Great clams and you get a bunch of juice too for chowder!

I purchased these for clam chowder. There is a lot of juice in the can (about three cups) but there is also about 2 full cups of clams inside one can. The clams are of real good quality and taste. Worth the money and save time opening a whole bunch of different cans of the small cans of clams. Also, you can buy less clam juice. My chowder tasted amazing with this.

Delicious and worth it.

I would say this is a definite savings over buying the small cans at the grocery store. As long as you rinse the clams well to get rid of the inevitable grit, you will have plenty of tasty clams. There is a lot of juice as well, but still a hefty amount of meat.

Good quality

Overall good quality; some tough membranes and must watch for shell fragments. Made good clam chowder.

My favorite!

I initially bought another brand of chopped clams and was sorely disappointed. It was mushy, like minced clams. These have more bite to them. The texture is much nicer, the flavor is good. If you want them to be more tender, just braise them for a while. These a great to add to canned clams chowder if you want a protein boost and a quick meal.
