I had a thought just a minute ago. Yes they are fleeting but sometimes very intriguing. What if an oyster produced the finest gift-wrapped piece of chocolate? Ladies you know where this is coming from. And if you would be so lucky to afford one of these oysters the chocolate would make you feel better for a whole year. Mine, mine! And every husband and boyfriend will hunt that baby down. Of course, I wonder what would happen if you actually ate two pieces. Mmmm, I feel a book coming.
Okay, enough nonsense. Though it could happen in a perfect world. In any case, I don't know about you but Gulf oysters are one of my favorite foods. It's quite a treat for, oh let's say, the honeymooner! I like mine raw, I have to say, but I did check a few other recipes lately and was surprised to see so many. Grilled oysters with Parmesan Cheese, Oyster Alfredo and how about oyster cakes? Seriously, I am going to have to try all of these.
There is one warning that goes along with this special treat. Ah yes, be careful if you are the at-risk consumer. Those of you with a low immune system, have diabetes or liver disease stay away from raw or undercooked oysters. We would like to keep you around, so be oyster aware.
At any rate, for all us oyster lovers remember it has only one calorie protein, it is an excellent source of zinc, vitamin B and the all important Omega 3 fatty acids. Oh it's so good to know that my oyster will keep me healthy in those golden years. I'm good, how 'bout you. Keep it safe now.
