Prepare to be grossed out, my friends…

A New York restaurant owner named Joe posted a video on TikTok and had some pretty surprising news for his viewers about oysters.

Joe can be seen preparing food at his restaurant in the video and someone asked him, “Is it true that when you eat oysters that they’re alive?”

Joe responded, “Of course. When you open them up fresh they’re alive. Most times you squeeze lemons on them you’ll see them [all] wiggle and move.”

Joe demonstrated what he talked about and it does appear that those little slime balls move around…

That’s kinda scary!
