Crown PrinceNatural Smoked Oysters Hand Packed in Olive Oil, 3 Ounce Cans (Pack of 6)

I rarely write reviews, but after reading a few here, someone has to write something helpful or at least more accurate. Let's take apart some of the accusations:Price:Price has nearly doubled, but is now inline with what grocery store prices were 5 years ago. Or about 2.75 a box. Grocery store prices are what drove me to amazon to buy in bulk. No longer a discount, but I bet my local grocery store is 4-5 bucks a can given our current inflation problems. It is what it is, and none of us can fix this.Nutrition:Yes there is cholesterol - ALL animal products have it. But according to the last 20 years of research and discovery, dietary cholesterol HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR BLOOD cholesterol. Good lord, the dairy some of you put in your coffee has more than this. The most nutritious foods have cholesterol. It's so important for your body that your body makes its own. Statins work by negating the enzyme that triggers cholesterol production. You can eat 20 eggs a day (1 egg has 10x the cholesterol of one of these cans) and your blood cholesterol will not be impacted (actually, evidence and trials seem to state that your blood cholesterol would only improve as you wouldn't have an appetite for garbage).Also, oysters are highly nutritious. 200% of your recommended zinc and copper, loaded with vitamin b12, selenium and iron, it's hard to find any food that exists that is as densely packed in micronutrients that the vast majority of American's don't get enough of, than a simple can of smoked oysters. Complaining about cholesterol in an oyster is like complaining about the humidity in Hawaii. Or dumber.Taste:These are smoked oysters. Guess what? You don't take the best oysters and can them. You don't take great oysters and smoke them either. You can find better oysters elsewhere? Of course, fresh is best. Everyone says "better oysters over here" but no one mentions if it is canned. Or jarred. Or smoked... or most mysteriously if it is packed in seed oil. The vast majority of canned fish is packed in toxic seed oils. I'm well aware that seed oils are the official answer to heart disease according to boomer sources circa 1970, but seed oils are new to humanity, and most importantly are dirt cheap to process from lovely things like "rape seed" (which is where your canola oil comes from, which, by the way, was initially used to lubricate factory machinery a century ago. You can tell if you heat canola oil up to 400 degrees for frying, it smells like machinery and nothing like food).Smoked oysters in olive oil are special. Last forever, always healthy, relatively cheap (even today).Get a can. Get some crackers, I like plain 'ole saltines. Put cream cheese on the cracker. Put 2 oysters on top. Douse with hot sauce of your choice. Enjoy.Or, get a baguette. Get some gouda cheese. Maybe avocado. Tear off some bread, add a slice of cheese, put your oyster on top. Nice trail snack.Romance:Oysters are good for men in many ways we can skip here. But.. your breath is gonna stink to high heaven. Save these for the day BEFORE date night.

These are the best smoked oysters for the money, hands down. Other brands are MUCH more expensive, but these are just as good, and better than most. Surprisingly low in sodium, too. Just dee-lish.

These are tasty. I made a sauce with them with onions and garlic and had them over white rice. I used the oil from the can since it is good oil.

Excellent quality and flavor, my favorite brand for tinned fish.

Ordered these to get some omega 3s in my diet. Thickness is good, olive oil is way better for you than some sunflower oil etc. The package has a scary thing that says "Warning Reproductive Harm" California is really good about letting you know about some materials that have harmful effects. In this product those items would be levels of Lead and Cadmium these are known carcinogens. Did you know that these are also found in tap water and drinking water? You absorb it transdermally and ingest it. You don't see anyone flying off the handle about that lolMy one complaint. Package was not taped where it opens. I can't blame the delivery guy for this one. Literally no tape nor sign of some kind of seal on the end where the box opens. All in all, I am still happy about this purchase. 4/5 stars

Me encantó muy pero muy bueno

These are over the top. I buy them by the case and whenever my boys are wanting some protein and zinc, I eat a can. A lot of men are unaware of the fact that oysters energize T production.Crown Prince basically takes top-end oysters and packs them in a can, you could put them on a half shell and no one would know (except they are cooked and covered in olive oil 😉.Can't say enough good things about these.

as far as canned oysters go, these are the best I've tried of at least ones that don't contain seed oils and they've been impossible to find anywhere in regular stores. Sprouts used to sell them but they stopped and started selling some under their store brand that are TERRIBLE.
