I actually thought same thing that I'd hate it. I was more worried about texture than taste but it was surprisingly good and nice to enjoy something different.
I don't know why I hesitated because I've always loved raw oysters but haven't had those lately because of price.
I remember going to Lee and Ricks Oyster Bar in Orlando in early 70's and I think they were a dollar a dozen then. I had a half a dozen at Red Lobster about a decade back and not the same.
