Admiral Snaccbar @Chris Mench Serving shrimp with the tail still on when it’s already mixed into something (pasta, rice, etc) is insane.

        This is a real thing people do. My wife is one of them. I tried it; it’s not as bad as you’d think, but I’d still rather not.

      I like a crisp fried tail it’s baller, but in like pasta it’s just hard to eat for no real flavor or textural payoff

      It’s more that why would you want to eat it?

      Do you also eat the bones when you get other meats?

      Do you eat the skin of bananas or oranges?

        Vegetarian here so can’t answer for the meat and bones, but absolutely on the fruit and veggie front. Peels have a ton of nutrients, texture, and flavour

            I do haha. I know it sounds gross to a lot of people, but once you get over the mental block of “only the fruit inside is food” that most of us are raised with, they’re actually quite tasty. You can dry them out and make a tasty snack too if you don’t want to raw dog them

                I know lemon and orange peels have a lot of flavor because I’ll scrape a bit for “lemon zest” in some dishes. It however, does not mean I eat the peels.

          No one is arguing whether peels have nutrients. Do you eat banana peels and citrus rinds? That seems highly unlikely as they’re not palatable.

            Yes, I do. That’s what I was saying I’m my comment above. And just because you perceive them as highly unpalatable, does not mean thst everyone else does too.
