Oyster
f undaunted by the oyster’s rough, rock-hard, nearly-impossible-to-open
shell, the undoubtedly famished first taster would then have confronted
the gray, slimy, almost phlegmatic appearance of its plump body. Once
beyond any primal gag reflex though, this seminal slurped would have
been surprisingly rewarded with the oyster’s delicate, toothy texture,
rich flavor, and salty liquor. Oysters are also high in calcium, iron,
and protein. Admittedly, they’re not for everyone, but adventurous
humans the world over have enjoyed oysters, raw and cooked, for
thousands of years.
