The scallop that you eat is the shell-closing
muscle of the clam-like scallop animal shown in
the illustrations. This is when it isn't faked by
using some other organism and making it look
like a scallop.

A scallop is a shellfish. They come in a hinged shell. The actual scallop is a creamy white.

It's a bivalve mollusc, similar to a clam or oyster. In it's natural form, it looks like a flattened clam shell, with a squared joint. I'll find a picture ... http://www.marlab.ac.uk/Uploads/Images/Scallop2.jpg
