Culinary Adventure: Shave the ... Mussels

I just de-bearded mussels! I have probably consumed a mussel before, but not that I can specifically recall. Never before had I prepared one.
   This guide by my seafood guru took the potential whattheheckamievendoing?! stress out of the mystery.
   There were 3 dead mussels. They are in their grave. The others, alive — and now beardless, sleek — sit unmoored in the fridge. Thank you, little bivalves, for your lives.
