I love oysters and eat them raw- oysters rocker fellow and the samller ones are much better. oyster stew oh my. fried oysters

yack!!!1 I never could swallow an oyster, is it healthy to eat them raw like Hjm does? I do love fried clams, i guess to each our own.

Skyhaven People been eating raw oysters for centuries and it is an aphrodisiac LOL. Sky when you eat them raw you put hot sauce with lemon on them or you can eat just raw.

Rosie try "oyster shooters". I am almost 64 and eaten them all my life ...healthy.

Yes, they are very 'healthy'.
Best aliment for bones recovery... But i admit i never try to eat one... Because, they are alive... Bouhhh !

Yikes, your kidding there alive (when you eat them?)

Of course ! You didnt know ?

NO, never knew

LOL maybe Rosie is young and didn't know oysters are alive. No .. Rosie I am not making fun of you.. it is just my humor. But there are some that are bottled and you don't have to suck them. Sucking means opening the oysters from the shells. Galya You have any recipes to share? I am never to old to learn more . Thanks I don't like oyster stuffing but some do.

Hjm, no im actually 60yrs old and i live in New England where sea food is plenty, I never in my life thought about an OYSTER, now i know why lol

I saw that one with Lucille Ball that was haliarious and just thought I better explain sucking for others. Mister Bean Movie no I haven't but will look it up.

Oyster Stuffing


1 loaf Italian bread un sliced
1/2 lb. butter
2 chopped onions
1 stalk celery with leaves chopped
3 T. parsley minced
2 garlic cloves sliced diced
1 tsp. fresh thyme leaves
2 tsps salt or to your taste
black pepper
1 pint oysters with liquid


Crumble bread quite small. Melt butter in a saucepan In a large bowl -add onions �garlic-celery- throw in bread crumbs, add parsley thyme-salt - pepper. Drain oysters-reserving liquid. Heat liquid in a small saucepan to boiling point. If the oysters are large- cut them in half- if small- use whole. Add them to the boiling liquid and cook until the edges start to curl. Drain promptly mix oysters into bread mixture. Stuff bird

This can stuff a 10 to 15 lb. turkey.

A friend of mine once fixed some oyster patties that were delicoius! He chopped and minced the oysters, added egg and some other stuff and fried them. They were so good! Does anyone have a recipe for that? I would love to fix some.

Being from Maryland I have eaten oysters since I was a child. And usually with cocktail sauce on the raw oysters, which I've always chewed and they are delicious. My other favorites are oyster stew and fried oysters.

My mother fixes fried oysters and they are so good.
