Natural Smoked Oysters in Pure Olive Oil, 3-Ounce Cans (Pack of 18)

These are a really good tasting protein snack and nutritious. Great on crackers. The smoked mussels are good too but I like the oysters better.

These are the best smoked oysters for the money, hands down. Other brands are MUCH more expensive, but these are just as good, and better than most. Surprisingly low in sodium, too. Just dee-lish.

I've tried other brands and always choose this one. The taste and texture are delicious. They are also very healthy. I include them in my mediterranean diet.

I found it to be a very good choice… I’ve gone through half my order already … The Oysters are a good size, plump and not too salty in just the right amount of oil, I can open the can without making a mess …I will buy them again..Thanks

Absolutely delicious. Excellent texture wonderful taste. And you’ll pay for it monetarily. Nice big oysters, about the size of my thumb. Pricey but absolutely delicious!

These Crown Prince oysters are sustainably farmed in South Korea. As that country is reasonably environmentally conscious, one can presume they farm them in a relatively unpolluted area away from China. In addition, they are smoked on oak chips and shipped in Turkish olive oil. One can has only 10% sat fat and 5% sodium. And a decent amount of protein at 11 gms. Only negative is the cholesterol, as with most shellfish, is a bit high at 19%. As for Omega 3 fatty acids, the daily recommendation against heart disease, cancer, depression, etc. is 600-1000 mg/day. One can of these oysters provide around 1300 mg. For smoked oysters these taste delicious. So plump and fresh I can detect the brine in them. And the Turkish olive oil is very light, since I add a few drops of soy sauce to it and eat the oysters out of the can. I really like the box the cans come in as it's sturdy and I can reuse it for storing my long tools.

I rarely write reviews, but after reading a few here, someone has to write something helpful or at least more accurate. Let's take apart some of the accusations: Price: Price has nearly doubled, but is now inline with what grocery store prices were 5 years ago. Or about 2.75 a box. Grocery store prices are what drove me to amazon to buy in bulk. No longer a discount, but I bet my local grocery store is 4-5 bucks a can given our current inflation problems. It is what it is, and none of us can fix this. Nutrition: Yes there is cholesterol - ALL animal products have it. But according to the last 20 years of research and discovery, dietary cholesterol HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR BLOOD cholesterol. Good lord, the dairy some of you put in your coffee has more than this. The most nutritious foods have cholesterol. It's so important for your body that your body makes its own. Statins work by negating the enzyme that triggers cholesterol production. You can eat 20 eggs a day (1 egg has 10x the cholesterol of one of these cans) and your blood cholesterol will not be impacted (actually, evidence and trials seem to state that your blood cholesterol would only improve as you wouldn't have an appetite for garbage). Also, oysters are highly nutritious. 200% of your recommended zinc and copper, loaded with vitamin b12, selenium and iron, it's hard to find any food that exists that is as densely packed in micronutrients that the vast majority of American's don't get enough of, than a simple can of smoked oysters. Complaining about cholesterol in an oyster is like complaining about the humidity in Hawaii. Or dumber. Taste: These are smoked oysters. Guess what? You don't take the best oysters and can them. You don't take great oysters and smoke them either. You can find better oysters elsewhere? Of course, fresh is best. Everyone says "better oysters over here" but no one mentions if it is canned. Or jarred. Or smoked... or most mysteriously if it is packed in seed oil. The vast majority of canned fish is packed in toxic seed oils. I'm well aware that seed oils are the official answer to heart disease according to boomer sources circa 1970, but seed oils are new to humanity, and most importantly are dirt cheap to process from lovely things like "rape seed" (which is where your canola oil comes from, which, by the way, was initially used to lubricate factory machinery a century ago. You can tell if you heat canola oil up to 400 degrees for frying, it smells like machinery and nothing like food). Smoked oysters in olive oil are special. Last forever, always healthy, relatively cheap (even today). Get a can. Get some crackers, I like plain 'ole saltines. Put cream cheese on the cracker. Put 2 oysters on top. Douse with hot sauce of your choice. Enjoy. Or, get a baguette. Get some gouda cheese. Maybe avocado. Tear off some bread, add a slice of cheese, put your oyster on top. Nice trail snack. Romance: Oysters are good for men in many ways we can skip here. But.. your breath is gonna stink to high heaven. Save these for the day BEFORE date night.

Not too salty, just right !

Finally received my Oysters! I admit I did try to Cancel my order after I had read so many scary reviews? But they wouldn't allow it and shipped anyway... Well, I'm not Mad at these! The Oysters are plump, good size, and nice color...the taste though, is clean and succulent...a more subtle smoke flavor than your Average run of the mill Oysters from, yes China... I don't eat them anymore for good reasons, but I was missing them as I Love Smoked Oysters, have all my life, because I grew up on them at every Event my Family had. So I decided to try them since they came anyway, and I am In Love!!! I will definitely order more! I have eaten 4 cans in two days since I got them🤣 and can see me polishing them off pretty quick🤭 a little Costly yes, worth it? Absolutely! Update: I just received my new box today! 02/05/2024

Liked very much

I bought these with very high hopes as they are VERY EXPENSIVE, apparently being organic. Oysters are not visually beautiful things but this product looks somewhat off putting. Taste wise they are no where near as palatable as the run of the mill oysters available at Costco. I don’t know if these oysters contain less in the way of heavy metals or organic contaminants but I am not buying them again. In conclusion, poor value for your hard earned dollars.
