About:
Oysters are low in calories and rich in nutrients like protein, vitamins, minerals, and omega-3 fatty acids. They’re a good source of zinc, iron, and vitamin B12.
Did you know?
- B.C.’s coastline provides the ideal location to grow some of the highest quality shellfish in the world.
- Oysters get all their nutrients by drawing seawater through their gills and feeding on plankton. An adult oyster can filter up to 50 gallons of water per day!
- Oysters are environmentally sustainable! Oysters do not rely on commercial inputs such as feed, fertilizers, or fresh water to be grown.
