It would make far more sense to have a photo of the European flat oyster, Ostrea edulis, as that is the native oyster in the UK and the type of oyster eaten in restaurants etc in the UK and with which McQueen would have been familiar. The Pacific oyster ( Magallana gigas), is introduced in the UK but not widely produced/imported here. 109.152.244.92 ( talk) 08:34, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
