That is why you ALWAYS eat oysters with Tabasco sauce. It has ingredients in it that kill the bacteria.
It's also a good idea to soak shrimp in water with a teaspoon of Tabasco in it for 10 minutes before cooking. You *don't* want to get food poisoning from shrimp.
On a similar note, a butcher friend advises that you always wash off store meat, except hamburger, before cooking. You get rid of huge amounts of assorted contamination by doing so.
Never heard of this. Recently I tried Habanero Tabasco sauce..... oh my! That stuff made my whole body warm in seconds.
