Some time ago I heard that not all "scallops" one finds on seafood menus
are mollusks, that shark meat is sometimes marketed as scallops.  Is there
any way of telling, either by name (for ex, I would expect "bay scallop" to
be genuine mollusk), or by examination of the product, which ones are shark
meat?

Thanks for enlightenment,  Joan
