(23,169 posts)65. A story about oysters
My uncle came over one afternoon to say hi to my Mom, but she wasn't home. My younger brother was home, too, and one of us mentioned that there were raw oysters in the fridge. Uncle Louie asked us if we ever ate raw oysters. Being around 10 or 12, no we hadn't. We had chili sauce too, so we got the oysters out and Uncle Louie showed us how to eat them raw. He told us to toss them to the back of our throats and swallow. I managed one. I watched them eat several, standing over the kitchen sink, dipping them into the chili sauce and tossing them into their mouths. I have never eaten another raw oyster, but I do like them fried or scalloped.
Worst thing I've ever had in my mouth was sour milk I didn't know was sour.
