My dad is from Nova Scotia, born in 1964, to a poor farming family of 8 kids. He distinctly remembers feeling ashamed while eating his lobster sandwiches away from the other kids because it was a poor man’s food.
Dude I kno right,, I thought my dad was the only one with some sad ass stories of empovered food situations from his child hood in Guatemala. Lol Glad dads trying to make us greatfull for wat we have is universal. God bless America,, n u as well bruv.
Lol probably starving. Reminds me of that dude on Alone who's grossed out by grasshoppers, and his whole attitude changes when he grills one up and eats it.
@@Wazzen563 while i realize it was a joke and i agree there is no need to split hairs. i personally think jokes like this are stupid because an early primate who’s starving would look at an oyster, clam or gastropod much differently than a modern human and its no wonder why theyd eat it.
@@nicaus7362 that foreign guy was a French-speaking Acadian from New Brunswick, a maritime province of Canada, where you can find all sorts of awesome seafood
Same here. But a joe regular though so they cross cef topics. Ha. Joe also spawned a few wildlife podcasters. Ha.

Wont call them pseudo but i know tho algorithm bsically put them up to create a joe situation. Ha. Theres only one joe ppl. He actually lived and liwes the stuff he talks about
I would go to a Chinese buffet with my dad on the weekends, he always had a plate full of oysters and told me its for the girl he was chilling with that night 😂
I'm from Eastern shore in Maryland, worked on the water many year's. Anytime we wanted oysters it was a 5 minute trip. In the winter eating oysters is more common then eating steak or chops. Could walk out on our dock scoop some up and slurp them down. I heard that the Indians here had it made, with all the wild game and seafood they didn't even need to travel.
The real reason you should be eating more oysters is because oysters contain a ton of DHA and finding good bio-available DHA is often much harder than you'd expect. DHA is arguably the single most important nutrient because the brain, heart, and eye depend on it.
I went for a visit to Gabriola island on the west coast of Canada and plucked oysters out of the ocean with a bottle of hot sauce in my pocket and ate them on the spot. They were huge oysters and completely free and extremely delicious. It was pretty epic to be honest.
I work on an oyster farm in Washington state and I can literally eat as many oysters as I want however I rarely ever take them home just because I hate opening them and cleaning up the shell mess. This clip makes me wanna stop being lazy and upstart using them for my main protein source
Idk if it’s “Latin” to eat them this way but that’s the only way I’ve seen ppl eat them. Taste good and helps give you a boost during sex. It’s good shit boys ask around.
Should do a podcast about the radiation emitting from Fukushima reaching down the coast of california and how even china stoped buying oysters and clams due to the fact of its high radioactivity
In addition, oysters have good amounts of zinc oxide in them. Zinc is very good hormone balancer and one of the essential elements in living organisms. No growth hormones, nor antibiotics… I love oysters. I don’t eat them raw but here in Taiwan I found that lovely oyster soup. It’s pretty much the nicest dish that I can think of. Makes me feel very healthy and manly
The Natural Human Diet oh you’re actually serious. You’re life must be so boring that you feel the need to respond to a comment passionately talking about something completely irrelevant
@@rhod - He's joking stupid , and you responded to him so is your life boring too ? I guess mine is too for responding to you , but he's right stupid , shopping is gay , cooking is gay , seasoning food is gay and vegetables are gay
Shellfish like oysters, abalone, mussels etc are the second most densely packed nutrient rich food. Second only to your organ meets like beef liver and sheep brains etc.
I had to be drunk off my ass to eat an oyster raw and actually get it down, on a cracker with horseradish, cocktail sauce, and a squeeze of lemon. Now I eat them and love them any time 🙂
I was scared to death. My member wasn't responding after several months of running an exercise bike. Oysters saved my life. As I met the most beautiful woman in my life. Thankfully it's all good in that department.
I swear these guys were on Anthony Bourdain’s Parts Unknown show and they ate food and drank wine in an ice fishing hut. But they were more French Canadian in that episode.
I would most definitely not eat anything coming out of water in New york lol have you seen the color of the ocean water up there?nasty brown shit water.
God was kind, the ones that had the least, ate some of the healthiest food, and your right not eating a week is prob most healthy we can do for our body, a good detox and re boot, but water not one i mess around, use it every day
I 100% agree that we probably first farmed oysters and such because we have so many adaptations for the sea it was like humans evolved in it. We lost most our hair and now we sweat out all our sodium and other minerals/electrolytes because we used to get it all day from the sea. We have grippy fingers in water too, that's why your fingertips wrinkle up like that: to become giant fingerprints to grip things better in the water. Think about it, that's why we're so different from a chimp.
Washington State has some SPECTACULAR Oyster variants, I ate at a place in Bellingham once and got a sample platter of the different bays around the Puget Sound and I had no idea oysters could taste so different from one another. The taste was not based on size either. Now I eat as many as I can afford Raw, steamed, stewed , fried or smoked But raw is how I like them best
Not sure I trust a lot of the details of what these guys are saying but I’m sure oysters were very important to early American life and it’s cool they’re using it to try and restore rivers in NY.
Stone Crab claws have a minimum length requirement. Either claw or both can be harvested if legal and not an egg bearing female. Generally people try to keep just one but when $ is the game both are taken quite often. The crab is returned to the water alive but survival rates are debated heavily. Yes we catch crab from previous seasons but the debate lives on about just how sustainable it is.
They are delicious snot shooters but I've seem my share of parasite infested oysters and read enough articles about Vibrio infections. I'll stick to drinking water and eating ice.
Very interesting stuff, especially considering recent early migration theories about the "kelp highway". If we first adapted to exploit this easy to harvest sea life along the shore, it supports the notion that we didn't actually chase reindeer across the land bridge, we followed the coasts eating shellfish along the way.
I love how we read and watch so much stuff on the internet, we’ve become buckets of useless information, and act like we’ve always known this shit!👨🏻💻🧠🤯🧐
I live in Florida and right by where they get the oysters. They are $100 a bag! They quadrupled in price for no reason whatsoever and we don’t enjoy oysters because they’re too expensive
Kurlansky never makes this argument people in NY survived off five oysters. In fact he said the opposite, it would take more than a couple hundred to meet your daily needs, so even pre-european contact oysters were more of a luxury/supplement
Just to play devil's advocate, wouldn't missing a claw severely limit a crabs ability to compete for mates and defend itself from predators (besides us lol)? Just curious, idk how quick crab arms grow back
