I don't remember the exploding seashell. Somewhere in the back of my brain I seem to recall reading that they planned to plant a poisonous cone to sting and kill him. This was years ago. Does anyone remember that?

Subject: Exploding seashell
In an article about Fidel Castro in its October 26 issue (p. 41), US News &
World Report remarks that, "Some of America's efforts to dislodge him are
well known, especially the Bay of Pigs invasion and the CIA's infamous
assassination plots involving poison cigars, an exploding seashell, botulin
pills..."
Can anyone tell me where I can find more factual information about
the exploding seashell?
