Clams, surprisingly, have more iron than beef and contain about the same amount of protein as chicken. They also have lower contaminants than most fish or shellfish and contain an exceptionally high amount of omega-3 fatty acids, which are good for your heart.
In honor of this National Day, all BR Guest seafood restaurants will offer 75 cent clams on the half shell, as well as a Clams Oregano, special, a dish of broiled clams which are breaded.
