I love oysters raw,,,,need I say more?

[Jonty30]

It won’t for me.
Oysters are meant to clean the ocean, not be dipped in sauces.

The 'Sm'oyster' Will Change the Way You Think About Dessert

As in "I used to think dessert tasted good, but I don't think that anymore."

[Fungi]

Shellfish too....

[PAR35]

From the mountains and prairies to you.

[nopardons]

Vomitacious GARBAGE!

[Fuzz]

More for me.

Going out for oysters and martinistomorrow, but not in a dessert.

[Larry Lucido]

Yeah, no.

Now bacon? Maybe.

[HartleyMBaldwin]

More like “I vomited so hard for such a long time that now I’m permanently conditioned against any form of dessert.”

i used to work in a Sheraton hotel dining room in Maine, and i woudl shuck and served oysters and clams on half shell- at end of the night there woudl always be a lot left over- so the wait staff, cooks etc would all share what was left- Got to like both- oysters though i liked better-

[CatHerd]

I’ll take my oysters just about any way I can get them ‘- raw, steamed, baked, broiled or fried — but NO to chocolate and marshmallow on them. What a way to ruin a good oyster. Eww.

[Disambiguator]

I would call it a s’less.

Yuck.

[Fuzz]

Now I’m craving a fried oyster po boy.

Every sea creature you eat comes from the same septic tank known as the ocean.

As to oysters, no thanks in any type of course.

[CatHerd]

Oh no, you had to say it. Now I want one, too!

[Fuzz]

Let’s meet in New Orleans!

I remember a girl talking her friend’s parents through eating their first oyster. “That green stuff is kelp,” she explained. “Oysters love kelp.” I’m thinking “Oysters love raw sewage, too, if it’s in the water.” I kept quiet.

““It was a brave man who first ate an oyster.””

Indians in Florida and other areas thrived on oysters.
