Oh Great...here it is the 7th and I'm just now seeing this. Sorry I missed it. Strange though how they would have it this time of year (oysters going OUT of season) as opposed to say, October.

Season?
Just kidding!

At least it beats the Oyster Eating contest at French Quarter Fest (behind French Market).

Once it's made, what do they do - sell it by the foot? :confused:

I'd love a foot or two! Or three! :laughup:

They don't sell it, they cut into 1-3 inch pieces and give it away. Restaurants are assigned about a 3 foot section and Acme takes care of the oysters. That makes each section of the poboy a little different, depending on whose portion it is. Antoine's had foie gras on their section last year.
