The Molly makes Mussels more enjoyable!

I love mussels.  My favorite way of enjoying them is with Pernod and a touch of cream, shallot, leeks and always plenty of freshly cracked pepper.  Sometimes I steam my mussels in Belgian Beer with leeks and a hit of spicy hot Vietnamese Rooster sauce.  Unfortunately when it comes time to extract these succulent little mollusks from their shells, more often than not the sweet, juicy meat is still stuck to the inside of their compartment as if to say, “I don’t want to go!” 
For this I have a suggestion.  There is a product, new to the market that is called the Molly.  If you point your browser to the Walmart page, they are doing a web promotion named “get it on the shelf.”  What this competition does is to seek out the best new and innovative products and through a voting process; the product may (or may not) get on the shelf in a highly competitive process.
Not every product makes it onto the shelf at Walmart.  If you could imagine the plethora of SKU’s that Walmart carries, it’s pretty amazing that new products could come to market and be available to new customers in such a big way.  But first you have to catch the market’s attention!
But first back to the Molly, it fits into your hand easily and is shaped like a mussel shell.  You pinch one side against the other, while scooping out the luscious mollusk with a simple motion.  The mussel comes off of its tether and is removed intact!  No more broken mussels or snapped shells!  This is by far the most simple and easy method that I’ve seen to remove shellfish from their compartments. 
Mussels attach themselves to their shell by a very tough little muscle that will actually tear the creature right in two, spilling their precious liquor and the sweet flesh back into the steaming hot cooking pot. 
There isn’t much I can say about the ease of extracting your mussels from their shell other than if you have struggled with the removal of mussels for your favorite recipes, and then you would understand the importance of this product.  The best inventions are often the simplest ones! 
The Molly deserves your support!  Try one and see! 
The video is a bit stiff, but you’ll get the gist I hope.   AND please vote… That is most important!
