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.

The quality is sumptuously delicious. It’s not something I would do often, but for $45 I mean you get your money’s worth with just the first plate.

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

:wtfdude: are they always eaten raw, or do more civilised people eat them cooked?

i asked myself this exact same question a few years ago. A friend and I were trying to figure out the "oyster limit" and at first we went to a restaurant with happy hour oysters. The Oyster Limit there was 48 because after that they wouldn't sell me any more. Then I went to a seafood market and bought my own oysters and learned that my limit for home oysters is much lower because shucking them sucks rear end and I'm bad at it. I never did learn the oyster limit but I'm glad to see other people other there taking a stab at solving this one of life's great mysteries.

Once when I was a kid my dad and me were stomping around the cove near our house. He dug up some kind of bivalve, either an oyster or more likely some kind of clam, like a cherry stone. He popped that bitch open with his little pen knife right there on the low tide zone and slurped that dang thing up like it was a tasty treat. There were signs everywhere that said "Don't Eat the Shellfish" because the cove was so polluted. He also took me near the train tracks and we would have to duck down when the trains went by, and that's probably why I am afraid to go near trains.

Remeber: The oyster is Nature's Life Straw sucking up poop and oil blobs and toxic waste and junk and now YOU'RE eating all their gross meat, and like they say, "though the flavor may thrill, the oysters will kill"

hope the claims casino was worth it! YUCK!

I live in Atlantic Canada and I can literally see the ocean from my house. During fishing season you can buy fresh, as in caught that day, seafood from fishermen selling their wares from the back of their pickup truck in a gas station parking lot. We are world-famous for our lobster and Malpeque oysters.

I really don't like seafood. I'm fine with a boiled lobster once or twice a year, and haddock, but anything really briny or fishy can gently caress right off. Salmon? Gross. Oysters? Never tried them because fishy snot can gently caress right off.

You can eat them cooked if you’re a giant baby who can’t eat real food, sure

a group of oysters is called a bed or an oyster reef.

they don't have a cool group name like a crash of rhinos.

they're delicious on a cracker with hot sauce and bacon.

but they're lame because of this fact.

I have two uncles that like oysters. One is good, one is evil.

Good uncle will BBQ oysters on the half shell. A bit of lemon juice and a dab of cocktail sauce as they come off the grill and its like food from the gods. Absolutely delicious. I could easily eat 30 of those things cooked that way. I never have, because of sharing, but I would in a heartbeat given the chance.

Evil uncle brings a store-bought jar of raw oysters to Christmas potluck dinners whenever we get together. The slimiest, snottiest things you can imagine. He dumps them in a serving bowl and walks around offering them to everybody like its a delicacy. I've actually sprinkled in lemon juice more than one time when he wasn't looking. I'll always eat one to indulge in the grossness, and two if I've had a few beers; but that's my limit on those.

That's a high quality avatar right there.
I love raw oysters and my record is 36.

I remember it was Valentines Day and I had the day off while my girlfriend was at work.

I had been really in the mood for some oysters lately, and the seafood place down the street from me was doing buck-a-shuck that day. Seemed like a perfect opportunity.

I walked into the place and sat at the bar and kept ordering oysters and vodka on the rocks. My girlfriend and I had dinner plans for Valentines that night, and I knew she'd be pissed with me if on the outside chance I got sick from the oysters. I remember reading an article that said people who have alcohol with meals have less instances of food poisoning. Although I'm not shy with raw seafood, I do eat a lot of it and food poisoning sucks. So whenever I'm pounding back oysters, or clams, or sashimi I usually have a few drinks too. Only today I think I overdid it with the vodka. I think in my head three dozen oysters sounded like a lot, but that isn't really all that much to soak up all the vodka I drank.

I stumbled home and passed out on the couch. I ended up being sick from all the vodka and not the oysters. She was pissed when she came home. We are now married :thumbsup:
