Which isn't good when you are allergic to the stuff :(

Eating out here is a nightmare because if they don't slather it in cheese they pour cream all over it.

Ooooh I'm with ya there - I don't know how on earth people can eat ANYTHING slimy.

OYSTERS!!!!!!!! EEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWW Never ever tasted one so I don't know that I don't like the 'taste'. But my god, isn't the texture enough to put you off?? It must be like eating PHLEGM.

I know if I even tried I would wretch. Just looking at it almost has the same effect. YUK!

Based on comments that have been made to me often in the past by girlfriends, I think all girls should be trained to eat and enjoy oysters from a very early age.
