STORAGE
Storage: | Fresh oysters are best kept alive by placing them in an open container in a refrigerator and covering them with a clean wet towel to prevent them from drying out. Do not keep them in a bucket of sea water, in plastic bags or other air tight containers. |
Shelf Life: | The sooner live oysters are consumed, the fresher they will be (especially when you plan on eating them raw). Depending on whether you're eating them raw or cooked, they should remain fresh (when properly stored) for 5-7 days. If they start smelling fishy or if they are open, throw them out! |

My order of 4 dozen oysters arrived as fresh as the day they were harvested. I couldn't wait to eat some so shucked a dozen and opened a great bottle of New Zealand Souvignon Blanc to have with them. I highly recommend Marx Foods for your fresh oysters. You'll not be disappointed.
