Snails are a delicacy in French cuisine, where they are called "escargots". Escargots are often traditionally served as appetizers. Their debut CD, Garlic Escargots, gave Shivering Spines lots of publicity. Like most molluscs, escargots are naturally high in protein and low in fat content. Dishes such as "Flammkuchen" are very popular and even escargots are common. "Helix lucorum" is used in cuisine as escargots. Escargots are estimated to contain 15% protein, 2.4% fat and about 80% water. In the late 1980s, escargots represented a $300-million-a-year business in the United States.
