Admiral Snaccbar @Chris Mench Serving shrimp with the tail still on when it's already mixed into something (pasta, rice, etc) is insane.
As Americans, we should eat more meat organs. The amount of Americans who get excited by eating a chicken leg but then get disgusted at eating the chicken gizzard is too high.
People don’t eat the tail?
The insane part is taking the heads off.
Putting anything inedible on a plate is insane.
If its on my plate in a restaurant, I will attempt to eat it.
You can 100% eat the tails and I 100% do this
Do you mean the exoskeleton?
Do it.
Lock eyes with the chef.
Don't let them win.
I wouldn't say insane but that's defo against the rules for me. I often have chefs who want us to leave the bellybuttons on cherry tomatoes and I get this mildly niggling feeling because I read a few years ago that they're poisonous.
You now have me wondering if the killer tomatoes in Attack of the Killer Tomatoes are venomous.
They're not. Trust me, my niece ate almost nothing except grape/cherry tomatoes for the first 4 years of her life, she'd never have made it. I've personally eaten whole cherry tomatoes more days than I haven't in the last month and I feel great.
I was on a school trip to a hotel, and was handed some dragon fruit. They didn't tell me how to eat it, so I bit right into it. Took out a big chunk and wanting to try something new I kept chewing it.
The man had a look of what was a mix between horror and surprise on his face and told me to spit it out.
Not really a plate but I was handed something with inedible parts and no instructions. Similar I suppose?
Amusingly as I was reading this comment thread my room service arrived and it had shrimp with the tails buried in pasta.
