No, you should never do this. It's very dangerous. I am an emergency room nurse, and recently treated a patient rushed in to the hospital in an unconscious state. It turned out that there was internal hemmoraging caused by the jagged part of an undigested shrimp tail. While the consistentcy of a shrimp tail may seem to be like that of a human fingernail, the latter is broken down by stomach enzymes, while the shrimp tail is immune to the enzymes. Further, long term consumption of the inedible parts of shellfish have been known to cause irreparable damage to the GI tract. Suprisingly, the New England Journal of Medicine has recently published a study finding that the effects of shrimp tails stated above are exacerbated with the introduction of acids found in the skins of citrus fruits, such as Oranges or kiwis. (While a small percentage of the American population partakes in the consumption of the skins of such fruits, it has been found that there is a large overlap with those who eat the tails of shrimp.) Hope that was helpful.
Yes it is safe to eat shrimp tail meat. As long as you don't eat the exoskeleton! :)
Sometimes it should say on the pack.
No, because you can choke on the shell of the shrimp. You do get a lot of the flavor, actually you get all of the flavor. But it's still no good for you.
Yes. Shrimp is very popular in Asian countries. I eat it all the time
Shrimp are generally safe year round, but some avoid them seasonally. I personally don't eat them in the summer because I don't like the taste of brown shrimp.
To the best of my knowledge there is no part of a shrimp or prawn that is inedible including the shell. It may well be not nice to eat though.
it depends on which part of India
no it is not safe
goldfish,and sunfish are two of the species that don't eat shrimp.
There are mean and they like to eat shrimp and worms and other shell creature.
The shrimp is an invertebrate. It is supported by its shell, which is an exoskeleton. It does not have any bones inside of it.
Yes, it's safe for dogs to eat prawns or shrimp.
They are carnivorous fish. I know of no reason why they shouldn't eat shrimps.
yes they do eat shrimp...
Yes, my brother does all the time and I also have. I prefer to break open the shell and then eat the seed but whatever works for you is good. And if you eat the shell you will be fine.
