"Yeah. I really do want a big salty lugee in my mouth" ~ Oyster Enjoyers

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago (2 children)

For real, that big salty lugee is great! Did you know they're actually alive when you eat them? They also don't have pain receptors IIRC so they're a very ethical source of protein. - actual oyster enjoyer

ethical

You eat them alive

🤔

Lol I'm not a fan of seafood but I've always found it unnerving that they have eyes

Make sure to only eat oysters fed a strict vegan diet, then you're all clear.

I like them on occasion, but I prefer them smoked, I think it does wonders to the natural flavors.

I'd much rather have mussels though (not raw, boiled). Mussels in a oil pasta is fantastic.

Smoked is very good too.

Mussels are different. Both are good, but yeah mussels are better as part of a dish, especially with a lot of butter.

I am not a big fan of raw oysters, but if you bake them in the oven with breadcrumbs, cheese and a sauce, they are delicious

I mean.... The bread, cheese and sauce is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.... Using those 3 you can almost throw anything else in there and it'll be decent.

Essentially "it can be palatable if hidden in pizza".

Or smoke them. Canned, smoked oysters are fantastic.
