    Oyster. Anything with the consistency of snot that you’re supposed to swallow without chewing isn’t food. I can make my own salt water that tastes much less disgusting.

      As an oyster fan, I can confirm that different species make a pretty enormous* difference to both flavour and texture.

        I’m pretty sure you’re supposed to chew them. I don’t know how you’re supposed to get any of the oyster flavour otherwise.

      I quite enjoy a half dozen sea-snots (just fresh with a wedge of lemon please), but I can see the lack of appeal.

      Hear me out. Have you tried them grilled in garlic butter with a little sprinkle of parmesan?

      If it’s not for you then you won’t get any hate from me. I just wanted to throw that out there.
