Of eating shitty frozen shrimp? No, no you did not miss an opportunity.
"Stop liking what I don't like!"
Quantity + salt and butter > quality lol
(Joking, fresh is best obvs.)
How’s the air feel with your nose that high up?
Whut?
Edit: like ...are you arguing that fresh seafood isn't inherently better than literally any other age of seafood because of course it is? I'm legit confused, lol.
You just come off very snobbish in that comment.
Yes, obviously fresh food is best, but not everyone can have that.
Maybe it’s just me
Sorry? I was just joking around about shrimpfest.
Edit: removed irrelevant personal story
So shrimp is shitty. Got it. Don't eat it anyway, because it's shit. No opportunity missed here.
That goes for all fish and seafood. Unless you caught it yourself, or personally know who did, it's frozen.
Blind taste tests have shown most people can't tell the difference. Of the few who can, most prefer the frozen. Probably because it's what they're used to. "Fresh Seafood" is a scam
*flash frozen. Different from frozen in your freezer.
I have personally done a blind taste test just for fun with several different types of fish that my family caught and the two of us that were doing it both couldn't tell for shit what was frozen and what wasn't. Anecdotal for sure but I thought for sure I'd be able to tell easily.
Agreed. I don't eat any of that shit. I don't like it. Lol
Lol are you a literal child lol
