I don't have the balls to try oysters. I like clams sometimes, and mussels sometimes, but in general, the taste of "the sea" makes me sick. If something tastes really fishy, it will literally make me puke. It's hit or miss with mussels, since sometimes they do have that fishy taste. Are oysters like that?

I thought so yes. Try fried oysters first. They're breaded and such. If you think they are too fishy tasting, then don't even bother with steamed or raw. Raw was just a bit too much fishyness for me so I had to switch to steamed.

I've always been grossed out by a lot of fish stuff (except for fried catfish and flounder. I grew up in the South) but since I moved to the beach, I've tried really hard to learn to like fishy stuff like crab and oysters and such.
