How many dozen can/have you eaten at one setting? I worked at a bar in Panama City Beach back in the early 80s
And ate 8 dozen. Had a middle age regular gal 51 who would eat 6 dozen every Tuesday night. (10 cent oyster night.

I’ve often wondered that. I eat 2 and still would like more.

I think 5-6 dozen but I might just be fooling myself.

I don’t use crackers so that’s a big factor.

I ate 5 dozen at the Mohawk in Monroe one night.

Went out back to the rest room and puked my guts out.

Just got back from the Pacific NW. Ruined gulf oysters for me. What they got up there makes our oysters taste like shite.

I am in the other camp. Never tasted a Pacific oyster I liked. And I've eaten many. I love Oysters from the entire Eastern seaboard and the Gulf. Will likely never buy a West Coast oyster again.

I have cleared 5 or 6 dozen many a time when younger...three dozen is probably all I've eaten in a sitting the past 10 years.

I got 2 dozen there yesterday. I only ate about half because my 10 yo kid is really stepping up his oyster eating game. They were some great oysters.

I've always wondered as well. 2 dozen is a tease.

I had five at Felix’s with my 150 lb 75 year old father in law standing next to me and he ate 9. Old man can eat and he loves Felix’s as do I.

My general amount is 4 dozen with a few crackers. The most I've ever eaten was 7 dozen but I was really hungover. If I applied myself I would say 9-10 depending on the size of the oysters. These oysters over here in South Texas, probably 20 dozen as they are the size of a thimble.

Really?
I had some in port Townsend in Washington and they tasted fine but not better than a gulf oyster.
Had some blue points in cape cod that were great..
But again... that muddy flavor in gulf oysters just taste better to me.
