I ate a raw oyster for the first time this weekend. It tasted like cocktail sauce and fishyness. And oysteryness. Here it is. This is the guy I put in my mouth.
Remember the Walrus and Carpenter in Alice in Wonderland? This photo made me think of that. For the people who aren’t familiar, basically, the Walrus & Carpenter lured these baby oysters out of their bed and ate them, all the while singing the most joyful Cabbages & Kings song. Oh the horror.
The jury’s still out as to whether I’m going to put another uncooked oyster into my mouth, chew, and swallow.
omg, so jealous!!!
The funny thing is, except for like 1 of mum’s recipes, I don’t like cooked oysters all that much. But raw oysters, I can’t get enough!
Right now, looking at that picture, I want to retch. I can’t believe I ate that. Blech!
I went to oyster happy hour yesterday!
yummmmm
