Jane, you aren’t ‘horning in’ - this is an open forum for everyone.

Yes, I can eat calamari - as it is not a shell fish - and I have no problem with it at all.

I stay away from clams, oysters, crab, crawdads, etc - anything with a shell.

A couple things I have discovered that I am leary of:

Glucosamine Condroitin - is made from shrimp shell. (If one piece of the meat gets into the pill - it could be fatal, for me.)

Another thing that I stay away from is Diatomaceous earth, which is made from the ground up shells of deep sea plankton or hard-shelled algae. There is some evidence that it can cause a reaction with someone with a shell-fish allergy.

Good luck with your dining delights!

Thank you, both, for the sweet replies. I cannot wait to try the calamari at PF Changs, now ;-)

Thanks, Mama_Bear for the nice greeting. I look forward to visiting more often at AP!!
