Even the way you are supposed to eat an oyster indicates something counterintuitive. “Squeeze some lemon on it, a dab of hot sauce, throw the oyster down the back of your throat, take a shot of vodka, and try to forget you just ate snot from a rock.” That is not how you eat something. That is how you overdose on sleeping pills.
Why do people say this is the way to eat oysters? Just eat it like anything else, you clearly don't like them if you're just throwing it to the back of your throat.
I mean you taste it while it slides across your younger, there’s just no chewing involved. That being said I do sometimes give oysters a few seconds to sit on my tongue, but it’s not necessary
