Your question about nutrition value differences between bay & raw scallops

piqued my curiosity. So far, haven't discovered any specifics that measure

unit by unit, differences, BUT, have been encountering information that

leads me to believe that " bay " scallops are often not true Atlantic-water

bay scallops, but instead, Calico scallops. Here's an example of what I'm

seeing:

*

Because much of the population of bay scallops were killed off by toxic

algae in the 1980s these are much more difficult to find and are quite

expensive. As a result, many of the bay scallops available are actually

calico scallops harvested in the warmer southern waters of Florida and the

Gulf of Mexico. Many of scallops sold on the west coast as bay scallops are

calicos but they are a different breed from bay or sea scallops. They are

slightly smaller and not as sweet or as tender as Atlantic bay scallops*.
