I am sure that Ras would have appreciated this:
Virginia City Journal 
Delicacy of the Wild West Lives on for Those So Bold
..."the 18th annual International Comstock Mountain Oyster Fry. 
Classically dipped in cornmeal and then fried, or artfully concealed in 
scrambled eggs, bordelaise sauce or sushi, these oysters were not of the 
Chesapeake or bluepoint variety but, rather, a cornerstone of Western 
ranching culture involving testicles from gelded lambs and calves."
