I haven't eaten raw oysters since 2010....I made a deal with God and I intend to keep it. After decades of eating raw oysters at about every oyster bar I could find, I had "the bad oyster" one night out in summer 2010. I spent the night on my bathroom floor praying to live as it was coming out both ends. I made a deal with God that if he got me through the night I would never eat another raw oyster...so far I've kept the promise.

Something to consider is that Oysters are filter feeders, so they clean a massive amount of water, over fishing basically removes them from the environment causing it to literally break down and species that lives there disappears within a decade or two. The cleaner the water from the filtering process the more sunlight reaches the bottom which helps more species thrive.

[@frankmeyer5128]

That is why they are sustainably farming them now and not destroying the natural wild oyster reefs anymore. The damage was already done in the past, the modern oyster industry is helping to clean the chesapeake bay.

[@dra6o0n]

@@frankmeyer5128 Yeah but did you know in the South China Sea, the spat between Taiwan and 'West' Taiwan caused the latter to paint the entire water pink with some sort of chemical? Would take more than oysters to clean that up.

I was talking about how people are restoring waterways and now you're using it as an excuse to complain about China and Taiwan trying to conquer each other.

Great viewing as always, I'm sixty-four now and in the West of Scotland's rich waters we used to put our mussels,clabbydhu's (giant mussels) and other bivalves into buckets filled with the sea water and flour added so the flour flushed out the digestive system. Have a look at the Oregon State University's method of Enhanced Depuration Researchers, led by Professor Yi-Cheng Su who tweaked the depuration process to improve its effectiveness. A similar technique has been used in the United Kingdom for decades now for small to industrial solutions. But the attention to detail in the farmer here will be a thing to learn from and maybe improve for sustainability. Thanks to ALL who made this possible.

Oystering near the mouth of the Suwanee River was forbidden for years because the water going into the Gulf was full of bacteria. Then they cleaned up the river and it was resumed. After a few years… I think they wiped out the oysters as I haven’t seen any offered from that area. Not sure.

[@samherrick8656]

Virginia is currently the largest producer of oysters in the United States, but all oyster sales annually only make up ~5% of our $1.1B seafood market (~$60m in oyster sales annaully). Oysters are quite common here in Virginia, but in reality they account for very little of our economy (There's ~134 Oyster farms inside virginia as of January 2024). The entire agricultural industry in Virginia has an economic impact of $82.3B meaning Oysters account for 0.073% of the annual agricultural value.

And they're not very good tastewise. I don't know how you say it in english, but in France we say they're "milky" (laiteuses) cause of the colour / texture theu take at this period of the year. But you can smoke them on the side of a BBQ fueled by vine branches.

We are so far inland that these are rarely available to us in safely fresh form. I've had raw oysters several times, though, and found them absolutely delightful, with or without adding junk on top of them. Raw oysters are NOT, I repeat they are NOT slimy! They are firm and they taste of sea water, extremely delicious. When I lived on the Texas coast there was a small dockside establishment that served "Oyster Burgers". These were fresh-caught, deep-fried oysters on a hamburger bun with lettuce, tomato, onion, and Louisiana hot sauce. I love the Arkansas Ozarks, but there are some things about the sea coast that I sorely miss!

The Bay once was just laden with oysters everywhere they could grow. There were oyster mountains in deeper water. They were harvested so heavily the bay was almost ruined. I remember even in the 70s they harvested so many they gave the shells away free by the truck load from sea food plants. My grandfather had an oyster shell drive way at his Maryland home. I recall the driveway reeked of rotten fish for a while before the odor went away. The shells were good driveway alternative to gravel, they broke and compacted themselves as you used it and became a very good surface after a couple years. Those days are gone forever.

Interesting. I own a house on the water in lower Potomac/upper Chesapeake Bay where I grow my oysters exactly like this off my dock. What I didn’t hear in this video is how these multi million dollar oyster companies submit applications to start new farms encroaching on the water rights at the water front homes that people pay a lot of money for. The HOA of the creek that my house is on is fighting one of the local oyster companies who submitted 3 - 4 applications to implement football field size fields. Several were submitted at the mouth of the creek, preventing Bay access. Doing this basically ends water recreation by the home owners who live in the coveted areas. Other than that chief complaint, the oysters are wonderfully sweet and delicious and so are the blue crabs that are abundant. BTW the above information is a matter of public record.

As an oyster freak who has eaten them just about everywhere in the world. I rate Chesapeake oysters about a 6/7. Gillardeau from France and the Quilecene and Olympia both from Puget Sound in Washington are tops on my list.

[@hongkongfueynz3071]

Bet you haven't tried Bluff oysters from the bottom of the south island in NZ. The quality and size has diminished over the years sadly. But they were some of the world's best imo.

[@brslade]

Virginia oysters may be plentiful but they're not great. Get yourself out to cape cod and try a Wellfleet oyster. It will set a standard you'll never top.

All this amazing content is gold I tell ya!!

[@tyyamnitz8408]

It’s not just that rare bacteria that make oysters dangerous. Oysters harbor human norovirus so are frequently the cause of outbreaks

[@FarmergirlJess]

It’s a good look!!! Watching from Jamaica 🇯🇲

I'l say it once, and I'll say it for ever, LARGE OYSTERS ARE NOT ALWAYS BETTER:

[@xaviertevaseu]

sure bro😂 😂😂😂

[@bobbyhill1013]

I prefer a cocktail sized oyster 2 inches deep cup. Perfect

[@NCSVeniceShorebase]

Cool to see how its done on the East Coast. From Louisiana on the Mississippi Delta where the oysters are awesome as well, but the best i ever had raw came from up north.

[@victoriousvictor7978]

Best cooked ones iv had where in New Orleans. Best raw, vancover island BC canada(where I live) and The queen Charlotte Islands. Cold, clean water.

[@oceanpacific886]

If you eat nasty texas oysters you are playing russian roulette with your life- always ask where they come from

[@anthonyknocks45]

Why?

[@Rockking1111]

I grew up on seafood, oysters raw and cooked are delish, gotta try pacific and bluff oysters🤤🤤

[@Terri-ee2eu]

Me and my husband are about to go on an oyster boat tour in 2 weeks at this exact location! Pretty cool to see this episode on here. Im excited to see and experience it in person 😄

[@pierrebonnard990]

One of my favorite videos in your entire collection!

[@brianmoody2549]

Oyster have a great taste, I put mine on the grill,outside of the restaurant is then at home,oyster you learn a lot from going out and eating and asking the right question like sonny.you ask all the questions to get a better understanding.

[@bobvester6448]

Sorry guys, I've eaten many oysters. They may take longer to harvest, but Canadian oysters from colder waters, have the advantage. The texture and taste is superior.

[@Chrishappened]

I actually have these guys opened on my browser waiting for the right time to order from them! Thats crazy you made a video of them!

[@dylansmith1094]

As someone who used to work with local oyster farmers in the Yorktown, Virginia area i can say they are the nicest, and most hardworking family companies out there. #savethebay

[@ไทน์ไทน์-ฦ5ฝ]

You all are spreading so much joy. Thank you for being wonderful!

[@RighRok]

The farmers in this video are misleading on the health concerns. Only 100 die, but 80,000 Americans get vibrio from raw or undercooked shellfish every year. The CDC recommends to only eat shellfish when they are cooked for 3 or more minutes beyond the shell opening.

[@thegiantenemyspider1]

Clams are so underrated. I think Warasaw in poland uses clams to determine water quality from a river to see if its safe since when clams detect something bad in the water they close shut

[@tookitogo]

Many places do. Clams or mussels.

[@MrCasualGuy1]

Oysters and champage.. a long way from reviewing cheese toasties! Love oysters and loving your content even more! Though would have been more impressed if you had jumped out from the water or from inside an oyster shell in your intro! Ha!

[@molly-mahlethongphrachanh.5696]

Love your show! A mystery Laotian friend 🤣😂 got me... 🤤

Mysterious Laos here. I’m dying when Tom mentions me as that.. too funny.
