I was curious, not mad, and asked to speak to the manager, he came out and confirmed that was the "large" size. They were amazing, I have to say. The woman at the table next to me ordered the clam plate with fries for 24.99, and she had 16 clams, one more than my order. I was in too good of a mood to make an issue of it.

That's part of Michelle Obama's new diet plan. What it does is re distribute a portion of clams that were ordered by someone who could afford the more expensive option and allots it to a person who can only pay for the lower priced menu option.

Maybe, but the plan has some wrinkles to iron out, as I was camping for $35 a night, and the lady who got the bargain, drove off in a Porsche Cayanne with a Harvard sticker on the back.

But it probably was part of some shellfish inequality plan.
