Quote from Sookie in Double Date
Sookie: Uh... I wonder if the mussels are fresh. Lorelai: Well, it does say 'fresh mussels' on the menu. Sookie: Yes, but a lot of times they say fresh when they're frozen. They're called fresh because they were fresh when they were frozen. Plus if they're not stored with correct drainage they sit around in their own excretion, which is like sitting around in your own... Lorelai: Sookie, I beg of you, do not order the fresh mussels. Sookie: But if they're fresh... Lorelai: Even if they're fresh. Jackson: I wonder where they get their carrots from. The carrot crop this year has been really mealy.
