Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it. Oh, and shrimp made outta excrement.

I worked a summer job in the seafood industry in Nova Scotia. Shrimp and other critters like clams and oysters are also chock full of half a dozen different types of worms. No way do I eat any of it. Especially Gives me the heebies when people eat oysters…after commonly seeing 8 inch long red worms recoil back into the the oyster..Barf.

The worm is the aphrodisiac part of the oyster

Yeah but anyone who knows anything about shrimp will always de-vein it before cooking

And they call removing it "de-veining," but that's not a vein, it's a poop chute.

Full? It's a thin poo pipe. Hardly full.

If you're talking shrimp with the head on, then yea. If you're just talking about the tail, then no. The black line seen on shrimp tails is a vein

I don't think it actually has any negative health consequences to eat it, as in, it's not toxic or anything. It won't make you sick. We eat other animals whole or almost whole (as some have stated), small fish, oyster..etc. and generally speaking, animals eat other animals whole in many cases. I don't really believe it's that big of a deal, more aesthetically displeasing than unhealthy.
