Have you heard the saying, "You are what you eat?" This is especially true for oysters that grow in coastal rivers and bays. Oysters take on the flavors of the plankton they consume, and the available plankton can vary significantly—even between locations just 10 miles apart. That’s one reason you might taste five distinct varieties of oysters at a raw bar, each with its own unique flavor.In this lecture, Erin Arneson, Seafood Specialist for the University of Georgia Marine Extension and Georgia Sea Grant unit, will delve into the natural history of oysters and the growing half-shell oyster industry. The next time you order raw oysters, you’ll have a deeper appreciation for their variety and the coastal waters they call home
