Used to love oysters....until...

On one of our frequent biz trips to Florida I was seated across from my buddy who would eat 2 buckets to my 1.

About half way through I looked up and he was gagging and turning green.

He'd got into a bad oyster.

That was enough for me....I quit.

I'm pretty sure I've never eaten oysters -- apart from (and a little perversely) the smoked, canned variety, served (and this is the perverse part) on kosher crackers. It was a *great* party finger food.
