These things are apparently still alive when you eat them...kind of freaks me out. Of course I don't guess they have much of a brain so I suppose they could care less. Also, you're eating them in they're entirety (sans shell), which means you're eating their digestive tract, which means you're eating oyster shit in addition to the oyster. They're good with Tabasco sauce.
I have, but I don't. I no longer eat sea food, but they are very very popular around here. They kind of remind me of swallowing a lougie.
You know, I don't eat raw anything anymore. I used to be really into sushi and it finally made me sick. For a week! lol I haven't ordered raw since then. I maybe had one thing that wasn't cooked since that time. Anyway...
lucky for me, i was very young when i first saw that mr. bean episode where the raw oysters that went bad. so no.
yeah but not my favorite they bit tasteless, toss some sauce on them. I maybe get a bucket once a year at best, but do eat the china ponds oysters all the time.. But Id much rather have frog legs.
I live in WA state oyster country. I love cooked oysters but my raw oyster days are past....guess I just have seen too many oysters sitting in the hot summer sun at low tide. The potential health risks of raw oysters are not trivial and I’m a recovering alcoholic needing to go the extra mile to protect my liver.
