Creation date: July 1995

Because oysters cannot move, they are at the mercy of the surrounding environment. Tides and currents can bring silt or sand to smother them, predators to feed on them, or microorganisms that they can accumulate and pass up the food chain. Because there is a risk of illness associated with eating molluscan shellfish, state and federal health authorities pay close attention to oysters. This document provides guidelines for the careful selection and safe handling, storage, and preparation of oysters.

Key Words: USDA • SRAC • Oyster • Mollusc • Shellfish
