I would be Leary of this. Where was the oyster found? It's large growth could be from Toxic waste or maybe it was harvested near the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Plant or from the northern part of the Chesapeake were there are many pollutants. If it's not natural, or questionable, I would stay away from it.
I remember when I was a boy that all the Oysters around here were about that size, then came-in the chicken industry with those mammoth spewing manure houses and then all the oysters started to suddenly change - to the size of a 6 month old child's hand.
Oh, yeah!

ReplyDeleteSuppose to be from japan so I'd be thinking atomic bomb bred...nope I'd not touch it.
ReplyDeleteA century ago, that size wasn't at all unusual.
ReplyDeleteBig oysters make big pearls.
ReplyDeleteJapanese oysters are that size and are commonly found in chinese/japanese restaurants and asian grocery stores.

ReplyDeleteYou must admit that the first person to eat an oyster was a very hungry man.
