Message: <blockquote data-quote="druryj" data-source="post: 3293634" data-attributes="member: 10465">One doesn't actually "eat" an oyster in the conventional sense.  One simply puts the vessel in which the shimmery, slimy, quivering snot-like glob rests to one's lips, be it shell, cup, or glass and sort of "sluuurppps" the contents.  It isn't really something to be chewed...liken it to trying to chew an over-boiled piece of some sort of soft rubber, or semi-gelatinous something or other.  Yep, just slurp and go.  The mass of the oyster digests easily enough though, once in one's digestive tract.  I do believe I once consumed at least two dozen of the things once at one sitting, straight from the shell, tempered only by a drop of Tabasco, a dab of horseradish cocktail sauce and a squeeze of lemon..  Drip, dab, squeeze, sluuuuurpppp, swallow, repeat.</blockquote>
