I love shrimp. Now that I think of it shrimp has to be one of my favorite foods. Unfortunately I rarely eat shrimp, maybe like 6 times a year.

YES.

I just got back from a two week trip to Malaysia, where shrimp (called prawns there) are in everything. I HATE HATE HATE shrimp and most seafood. (I do like some fish, tho.) Just posting to answer your question.

Edit: Oh shit.

You're like that one fucker who hates The Empire Strikes Back. In a perfect world, you two would be round up and lit aflame for our Shrimp Scampi cookout.

Shrimp is great, but if you aren't in a seafood restaurant it's hard to get in medium to large quantities. My local chinese takeout puts like 4 large ones in their "sweet and sour shrimp". Wha?

See? See why you shouldn't eat shrimp? It induces violence! Worse than any videogame!

I am eating cold shrimp with cocktail sauce - right now! - in spite of all the haters!

I'm not a big fan of cold shrimp, but I do like shrimp, they're great.

Hate shrimp? How can you hate shrimp? Shrimp is the fruit of the sea! You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, sautee it. There's shrimp kebabs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo, pan fried, deep fried, stir fried. There's pineapple shrimp and lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich...

That's about it.

What if I love shrimp with an unholy passion (have some in my freezer right now!) but I hate Star Wars? Would you just partially light me on fire? or would you light me all the way, but let me eat shrimp while I died?

QFT. I HATE the taste of fish. Any fishiness is a total gag for me. The only thing I can tolerate is a tuna sandwich, and only if it's loaded with mayo and other crap to mask the fact I'm eating fish. If I have shrimp come on a plate with other food on it, I get pissed because I can taste the nasty shrimpiness on my other food. I don't know what it is, but I just can't eat fish (and believe me, I've tried)

Wow, me too....Tuna on a very rare occasion with enough mayo that it's not tuna anymore. Although tuna isn't really all that fishy to begin with which adds to my rare tolerance.

LOL, didn't expect all this shrimp love in this thread. I'm a shrimp lover myself, and if you are too, I highly recommend trying Killer Shrimp or Bourbon Street Shrimp. There's a Killer Shrimp in Studio City and one in Marina Del Rey. The only thing on the menu is shrimp... that's it! Willco, you live in LA, right? Tell me you've been to both of those places. If not, you're not a true shrimp lover, and you should have your membership revoked until you right this injustice.

I can understand not liking roe or innards(seafood or not, ugh), but I love seafood meat. Fish(even sashimi :D), Shrimp, Lobster, Crab, Clams, Squid.... mmm... squid.

I agree. I can only stomach shrimp if it is fried. Cooked won't do, it must be fried.
Same here. I tried eating shrimp at a Chinese restaurant and it was crunchy (because of the shell). Gross!

I don't like seafood very much...
 
I'm also addicted to shrimp [flavored] ramen, and even the cuppa' noodles with the little shrimp bits in them are pretty tastey, IMO.

On a side note, I was in a Vietnamese restaurant today, and was shocked to find shrimp-flavored orange noodles in my soup. Maybe I'm late to the party, but this was a first for me.

Does anyone from NY know the restaurant Cabana? They have coconut shrimp that is just heavenly. Well, I only tried it in Forest Hills -- don't know about the other 2(?) locations.

:lol

The cuppa' noodles are good, but I've stopped eating them. Looong time ago I stopped, actually. Something about them changed and the noodles just...sucked. The old kind was good though.
But I still like the shrimp ramen. (NOT Top Ramen, because that shit DOES taste like cardboard. I'm talking about the other cardboard ramen..what is it... Machu...Ma.. Something with a M-name and a :) logo. )

Sadly, even though I live within walking distance of the "Asian Ghetto" in Berkeley, I've never had real shrimp ramen yet.

Someday....
 
Shrimp is the lobster you can eat everyday. :D Had some for dinner tonight, but I didn't eat any because I was full from the bacon ultimate cheeseburger and bacon cheddar potato wedges I got after reading the Triple Whopper thread. :(
