(UPI) – A Pennsylvania man eating with his family at a Delaware restaurant made a surprising discovery inside of a clam: a purple pearl.
Scott Overland of Phoenixville was eating at the Salt Air restaurant in Rehoboth Beach with his wife and children when the discovery was made inside a northern quahog clam.
“At first my wife thought it was, like, a bead, or one of those – it looked like one of those ‘Dot’ candies on the paper,” Overland told WCAU-TV. “We thought the chef dropped something in there.”
