I love raw oysters but quit eating them about 10 years ago. I don’t believe it’s worth the risk.

Many now are what they call “farm raised” and I believe they’re safer than what they used to be. I believe the farm raised are harvested in baskets in open waters where they have a pretty good flow of water but it’s still too risky for me.

I remember shucking them in college for a few days while in college to make some extra bucks. Many of them had some kind of mini starfish parasites. Don't know if I got them all!😎
