    ‘Scalloped’ means baked in milk or some other cream sauce. I don’t disagree with you, I’m just telling you. There’s no scallops in scalloped potatoes.

    I am surprised you’ve never had scallops, though. They’re cheaper than crab. You can get a pound for like $10 at Kroger.

      Pretty sure scalloped doesn’t necessarily mean to bake in cream sauce. It refers to the way they are cut - concentric circles or semi circles to look like scallops (the fish). So although they may look like scallops, there’s no fish in the dish at all.
