Woman finds 50 pearls in restaurant oyster

What appeared to be the start of a toothache for one woman at a seafood restaurant ended up being the sweet opposite.

Toni Elliot alerted her server when she felt something hard after biting into an oyster at Puckett's Boat House restaurant. When restaurant manager Greg Hargest arrived at the table, Elliot realized she had actually bitten into a pearl.

Elliot extracted not one but multiple oysters from her mouth to a laughter from her table, Hargest said. There were more baby pearls in the oyster.

An attempt to reach Elliot has been unsuccessful so far.
