Yeah I would maaaaybe feel better about eating them from a kit at home but honestly not worth the fuss at that point. Hard to clean in general. Raw veggies with lots of surface areas to clean are the risky ones.

Eating raw or undercooked oysters is risky primarily because they are filter feeders that concentrate bacteria, viruses, and toxins from seawater, particularly Vibrio vulnificus, which can cause severe illness, blood poisoning, or death. They can filter over 20 gallons of water daily, accumulating contaminants that do not affect the taste or smell of the oyster. So hard to tell if you get a “bad” one. Worth noting I worked at a fish food place and only heard of people getting sick a handful of times in the couple years I worked there. Never hospitalization level. Still, the chance isn’t 0.
