Oysters are groups of bivalve mollusks, that live inside the water. Their shell has two valves that are calcified and hard. But their body is soft. They are able to filter out plankton from the water, thanks to to their sophisticated gills. Oyster are widely known to carry gem quality pearl, but what else can it offer to us humans? Well some oysters can be eaten. I wish oysters can also offer stuff like money and gold.
Anyways, have you heard about about Be Oyster Aware website yet? If not, please let me explain it for you. It’s a website that provides a lot of information relating to oysters. They offer detail information about Vibrio vulnificus and the health risks it poses to people who consume it. According to them, “eat your savory oyster treats raw, steamed, fried, charbroiled, grilled….whatever your appetite desires, just BE OYSTER AWARE!”
