@Jimdamick i'm sure you've been to the oyster bar in grand central station? think of how many million oysters went thru that place over the decades.

Never been in it, besides I hate those slimy things.
What do they really taste like?
All I can tell is it's something yanked out of the ocean
Now steamers I like
About 3 dozen & about 9 draft Michelob's pulled from the keg sitting in ice by the pool, waiting for your 3lb Porterhouse to finish.
That's me

Blue crabs can be wonderful. Family used to vacation in southern DE.

yeah man. we used to catch them in NJ using a chicken leg on a string. lol.

but the soft shell ones lightly fried on a bun are really good too

I love scallops & crab but lobster not that much.
Only part that's any good is the tail, at least that's my opinion, plus they're a pain in the ass to eat.

Chicken necks on a pier in northern Ocean City.
I remember them scrabbling in the enameled pot when the heat came on.

A true coldwater lobster is worth it. Never had a tropical spiny lobster that was.

you ever have any stone crab claws out of GA or FL? they rip off one claw and throw it back and it grows a new one.

11 Million New Oysters in New York Harbor (But None for You to Eat)

NEW YORK — The restoration of New York Harbor has reached a new milestone as 2021 draws to a close: 11.2 million juvenile oysters have been added in the past six months to a section of the Hudson River off the coast of lower Manhattan, where they are helping to filter the water and creating...
