Are the mussels still in their shells?

In our local La Anónima they do frozen mussels de-shelled but they don't look great I have to say. They also do frozen squid as well....I can eat it but always think it's like eating rubber bands.
The salmon you speak of...is it red salmon like the Scottish or Pacific variety or the white salmon which is quite common here and tastes nothing like the red salmon.
Any smoked salmon for sale in BA?
