Somehow I have a hard time believing in anything the FDA says..I say, bring on the oysters..but I always ask where they are from.

That scares me which is why I've yet to give them a try.

Thanks for the heads up as I will be heading to NOLA in a couple of weeks intending on eating a bunch of raw oysters.
