Cockles.....The
Truth Being considered a delicacy in such places as Korea and Nepal has pushed the price of the comman cockle up to such a level that the usual consumer has had to resort to eating the next best thing....white dogshit. The financial incentive for cockle gatherers is such now that frequent bloodthirsty battles break out on the beaches near Crofty and Ferryside. The situation has calmed somewhat since last December when Penclawdd Parish Council hired 12 Chechnyan Mercenaries to protect the valuable sacks of freshly snared shellfish from marauding cocklesnachers.
