It says they buy from various states and some are almost local, but to skip Stump Sound – behind Topsail Island just two-plus hours south – tells me Sunnyside is not as astute as you would have us believe. Stump oysters are renowned and I would challenge Sunnyside to a blind taste test against their oysters from anywhere else. The Stump Sound product not only is best, it beats others – even the supposedly great Gulf Coast singles – by a wide margin.

And it certainly must be a Sunnyside oversight to not have any Stump Sound oysters….I will check this out. When I asked about the legendary Rose Bay oysters, I was told that they are “clumping” oysters and are very difficult to shuck. Perhaps the Stump Sound oysters are the same?
