 Tasty as a snack or to cookJun 16, 2009
By Jim Chou
I never thought I'd be into boiled oysters, but I recently ate at a good restaurant where they served an oyster dish made with oysters from a can (I know this because they made certain to tell me they couldn't control the oyster size, sometimes they're very small, sometimes very big). It was a simple yet tasty dish, and I would not have guessed the oysters were from a can.
I then decided to try to reproduce the dish, and ordered these and a set of the Roland's boiled oysters. As it turns out, I haven't yet used these in cooking, but I've had these as snacks several times. They're actually good straight out of the can, just salty enough, and if you add some condiments (e.g. Wan Ja Shan hot steak sauce) it's like eating real food - a perfect snack when you want something more than a snack but not quite a meal.
I prefer these to the Roland's boiled oysters in a can... not much difference in the contents, but these are cheaper and don't require a can opener to open.

Great Price!Feb 16, 2011
By hastur4162
Excellent product, Fast shipping, and a Great price. I use these to make oyster stew. I've used fresh oysters before, and I like these much better. They have a stronger oyster flavor that I prefer to use for making the stew. They are only about $2.00 a can when purchased in the 12 pack here on Amazon. In my grocery store they are $3.00 a can, so I love the fact that they are 33% cheaper buying on Amazon, plus delievred to my house! I've purchased them on the auto-delivery plan, and they arrive every 2 months with free shipping. Great Deal!

Excellent productNov 01, 2010

I use this product to make oyster stew. I was buying it at Whole Foods, but I get a much better deal buying them by the case at Amazon. I make oyster stew a few times a week -- none of the cans are going to waste. I hate to sound like a shill for the company, but I've never had a problem with any Crown Prince product. I also use their clam juice a lot. For canned or bottled sea food products, the only brand I might like a little better is Bar Harbor.

Fantastic!!!Mar 20, 2012
By Steve
These oysters are great quality and a good bang for my buck! I've been searching for oysters like this for a long time and am very glad I found them. I made oyster soup the other day and it was superb. Thank you amazon, and do try to keep the price in this range.
Extremely healthful eating. No sand inclusions. Farmed product of South Korea.May 13, 2012

ADVANTAGES: (1)These cans contain very high quality small oysters without any shell fragments or sand inclusions. (2)Knowing how expensive oysters are at other stores, the price of Crown Prince brand Whole Boiled Oysters is a good value at less than $2.31 per 8-ounce can with very fast free shipping. (3)Just as clams are an extremely, extremely rich source of iron, oysters are an extremely, extremely rich source of zinc, which is frequently deficient in human nutrition. (4)Oysters are moderately rich in the long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), both of which are the subjects of thousands of scientific studies on human disease prevention. (5)Oysters are low in mercury and other marine pollutants. (6)The salt content is just right to make it taste good and not excessive. (6)These oysters taste good without being smoked. Other canned oyster products are usually smoked, which means that they contain cancer-causing nitrosamines and cancer-causing heterocyclic amines. DISADVANTAGES: None.
