Today’s question came via Nic, and it’s one I don’t have an answer for, so I’m looking for your guidance and experience to help me figure it out.

Darky from VP sent me a link that’s been going around the internets about, in one person’s opinion, why vegans should consider it acceptable to eat oysters.
