I like Oysters. I had them at the local Chinese buffet with some sauce on them.

Without the sauce, I'm not sure what they taste like. They are pretty good with the sauce though!

Raw, they feel like slime going down, with a salty sweet taste.
Cooked, they are nice crumbed.
The actual flavour is hard to describe, they arent as sweet as scallops.

I love them raw. They're soft, squishy and wet...I'm not going any further with descriptive words like that. ;)

I really can't explain the taste. It's very interesting. Just go try some! Make sure you eat them at a decent resturant though. You don't want to get sick!

Oysters are best served raw (with horseradish and cocktail sauce or just hot sauce)

Clams should be steamed.

I always wondered about the first guy to have one. Mmmmmmmmm, that looks just like the loogie I just coughed up.

I bet he was hungry...

Raw guts, the insides of an oyster and their feces yummy green slimy stuff.

As you can tell I'm an anti-oyster-non-Hyundai-owning-P3 kinda guy :)
