Danger “peaking in May through October.”

The folk wisdom “eat oysters only in months ending in R” appears to be lost or ignored.

That’s what I was always told also… no month without a letter R.

being in Minnesota, my mom used to tell us kids that we couldn’t sit on the grass in months ending in the letter “R”.

R months,are the months where the ground is frozen or in one stage or another.
