On the Half Shell

Here's to the oyster so sweet,
For a snack they can't be beat.
They are plump on the half shell,
And make things important swell.
Your lady will be so proud,
She'll keep her head in the cloud.
If that lady is your wife,
Oysters will tend to her strife.
Even if she's sterile you see,
Eat oysters she'll conceive with glee.
Lead in your pencil they say,
Oysters will help you to stay.

Nice ode to the myth of the oyster. Bacterial overload and salmonella, no thank you.

Don't eat anything raw except vegetables. Fried clams once gave me Hershey squirts. I love scallops when they're broiled to kill the bacteria.

Having not fallen for the myth, I'm surprised I have no sexual dysfunction. I found that tunafish hot dish gives the same result. Not the tuna, the mushroom soup.

I heard if you eat oysters and mussles you definitely have a better chance at what they can do for you..

Good one!

Peace, love and light,
