Eat Animals Raw

There is nothing I like more, with about a dozen exceptions, than eating raw the flesh of nature's beasts. A week ago my family was fixing chioppino (a sort of fisherman's stew thing) and I insisted on tasting each element before its cooking began. As former roommate Jeffrey Bernstein can testify, I am consumed with the desire to eat an entire steak raw. Whenever possible I will eat at sushi restaurants, ideally eschewing accouterments and eating only the fish. In the last 1 week, I have eaten raw oysters three times.



I have a lot of friends and acquaintances who will not eat a raw beast, especially not an oyster. This is a shame. Sometimes, like in the case of the dozen exceptions mentioned above, one has to do things that in polite company seem unpleasant or inappropriate, in order to maximize fun.

To quote the Old Dirty Bastard: "Ooh Baby, I like it raw. Ooh Baby, I like it raw."
