About River snails
River snails are a nutrient-rich mollusk commonly featured in Asian and African cuisines, particularly in dishes like Chinese stir-fries or Nigerian soups. Known for their chewy texture and earthy flavor, river snails are a great source of protein, iron, magnesium, and essential vitamins such as B12. They are low in fat and calories, making them a healthy addition to balanced diets. However, care must be taken to properly clean and cook river snails to eliminate potential parasites or harmful bacteria. Some dishes prepared with river snails may include rich, high-fat sauces, which can increase calorie content. Revered for their versatility, these edible snails are a traditional protein option in many cultures, offering both nutritional benefits and a unique taste experience.
