I decided to buy these "Double-layer thick canvas gloves lined with 24-wire protection". I really only wanted one glove, but the minimum order was for three pairs. But they were cheap, so I bit.
I only ever use these types of glove when shucking oysters. And I only need one to hold the oyster while using my oyster knife in my ungloved right hand. I really enjoy shucking!
Somehow I convinced myself that I had ordered three gloves rather than pairs, so when the delivery came yesterday I was momentarily surprised to find six!
Duh!
Brain fart!
I usually buy these wild oysters in boxes of 20 - 25 depending on size. They cost me between ¥3.2 and ¥4 per oyster; that's $0.50 to $0.62 USD per oyster.
If anyone needs some of said gloves, just drop in next time you are passing and pick one up. Or even a pair!
