Similar to the lobster question - why mess too much with something so good. A drop of lemon juice does it for me - and make sure you chew them before swallowing. Can't see the point of sending them down to the stomach directly and not enjoying the sea fresh taste. I have a theory that people who don't chew them don't really like them too much and probably only eat them to be cool. I have to confess that I enjoyed some given to me at a friends dinner party that had a drop of Tabasco on - I thought it would ruin em but I love hot peppers and they were very good.

Angels on horseback! Wrap a rasher of streaky bacon round an oyster meat and grill until the bacon is cooked.
