I was at a buffet with my older brother last night and only really wanted to eat oysters and shrimp. Seeing as it was a buffet I wasn't just going to be pleased with one plate obviously. I rarely go to buffets, I figured the point is that you have a few plates of food. So I ate about 30-40 oysters and a handful of shrimp. Apparently that's an absurd amount of oysters to him. Oysters aren't very filling by themselves but that's all I really wanted. I could see if I was paying for multiple servings of oyster how it could seem weird but the bill was the same no matter how many oysters I ate. But now I'm starting to think that I didn't show proper buffet etiquette by only eating the one type of food. Granted. most people there did eat multiple different types of food. Whats the proper protocol here?

You will meet every one of those oysters in the afterlife, so you must ask yourself how many oysters can you take in a fight

I've only eaten oysters once. Somebody had the bright idea to put parmesan laced breadcrumbs on top of them and put them under the grill. They were awful, so my answer is one is too many.

Oysters are a known aphrodisiac. Your brother was concerned for good reason. Did you bone?

I have never eaten an oyster. Do you chew it or swallow it whole?

Wait 30-40 raw oysters... At an all you can eat buffet? Do you not see the glaring food poisoning problem here? I I've eaten two dozen oysters while drinking hella vodka tonics and Palomas. Fries oyster sandwiches are some of the best shits every esp with slightly warm tartar sauce or horseradish or both WAR CRIME GIGOLO fucked around with this message at 05:23 on Nov 21, 2022 |

Yeah I definitely chew up oysters. The most I’ve ever eaten was 3 dozen at once and I could easily have done triple that. I love them raw in the shell or on a saltine with either hot or cocktail sauce

Never too many op, as long as you're tactically timing your passes at the bar and not turning it into a seafood mukbang spectacle.

An oyster weighs ~1oz. An average stomach can comfortably hold ~1qt of food, and can expand to hold ~4qt of food. This suggests that ~32 oysters would be filling, but if you’re really into it and ok with being stuffed ~64 oysters would be ok. A real glutton could go for ~128 oysters.  Seems like your zest for oysters is just fine OP.

Casino here has an endless seafood night on Tuesdays. For $45, you can gorge on as many oysters as you want along with other bivalves, king crab legs, several types and preparations of fish, and a fuckload of other things from the sea. $45 per person to eat quality seafood from quality chefs is pretty choice.
