Bro, be safe when you eat cockles. Make sure is fully cooked. Got a case of a popular cockles stall in Holland area coffee shop where 30 over customers got food poisoning and hospitalised. Stall suspended for 2 weeks.

Cockles are yummy, but when u see how they are de-shelled and prepared bet you won't dare to eat them anymore.
As it's sometime irresistible, just ensure that it is overly cooked if you must eat.
