Current Events > I remember liking this one particular brand of smoked oysters as a kid

(+) Yeah! (+)

I looked for it in a couple of supermarkets and couldn't find it

But I saw a lot of different smoked oysters on sale

I loved eating those out of the tin, they tasted great
---

Do you think I would like the other kinds too
Do they all taste pretty similar
---

one way to find out

I should make a Youtube video about it
I'll buy like 4 different brands and test them out for you guys maybe
---

No, when you find that brand, you find that brand. A lot of times, there's no turning back, like BBQ sauce, or apples.

I have strict taste in a few name brands and won't stray from them.

IDK man

I don't remember the name of the oysters
just what the tin looked like

But i was tempted to buy some the other day
I kinda wanna do this video too tho

i'm not sure if i've ever had oysters before

i'd try it though but i heard its v slimy
---

Raw, they are incredibly slimy. Almost like trying to eat thick phlegm, actually. And that's not an exaggeration. The flavor also is something you acquire a taste for - it's incredibly "seafood-y"

Cooked, they are not as slimy. Oysters firm up and become a little bit less seafood-y in smell, but more pungent somehow.

Smoked, though, they are nice and firm but the smoky flavor mixes with the seafood flavor really well

That all being said, I prefer mussels to oysters 100%
