to be clear i've tried what should have been "the best" oysters around, in northern california, in seattle, and in baltimore, and i hated them, and when i describe how gross i think they taste ("ew it tastes like solidified seawater") people who love oysters say "yes exactly!!!" so i think i'm just not made to like oysters

Imagine having your quadriceps pulled off your leg. (Worst case scenario; they probably don't even feel anything) |

And a good shucker will use the oyster knife to cut the oyster from the half of the shell so it slides off easily. Which also probably isn't great for their surving long enough to actually be eaten live |

Could be. I don't know for sure I just can't avoid a good food debate  I do know that i love oysters and i feel like eating them any way besides on the half shell is a waste of a good oyster |

Which are umami as gently caress and uniquely metallic amd you should keep your eye out if you haven't had one |

yeah make sure you have an oyster shucking knife if you want to shuck them. Do not try to use a kitchen knife or a butter knife |

I like to. just break it up with the teeth a bit for extra oyster flavor. its not really like an egg yolk tho, egg yolks are far runnier. oysters will not 'flow' no matter how you pierce 'em. |
