  • Oysters are a Pacific Northwest obsession -- but these slippery little suckers can be a little intimidating. Never fear as we demystify these shellfish.

    Texture is a major player in eating foods for me, and I just can’t get over the texture of Shellfish….all shellfish. It’s the rubbery-ness of crustaceans and oysters/clams, and raw seafood just immediately activates my gag reflex, so I unfortunately rarely eat sushi, unless it’s smoked fish or imitation crab…

      On the flip side.. actual good quality oysters don’t even taste of saltwater AT ALL. They’re meaty, have plenty of great different flavours and I can’t imagine anyone finding that nasty.
      Remember kids, if you’re gonna eat oysters, buy them fresh and high quality, the extra money is WELL worth it.
