Today I purchased a package (9 oz.) of frozen SeaPak(R) "Jumbo
Breaded Butterfly Shrimp". �Well, the shrimp were noways near jumbo
in size. The breading is spread out to make them look large but,
when the breading comes off, the shrimp look very much less than
medium in size. �What the heck is going on in this world? �Is
nothing any good any more? �I would suggest that anyone who buys
such products take them back to the store and get a full refund -
which is what I am going to do.

Now these

are jumbo shrimp 4/6 count. Finished they are honey panko, coconut
fried shrimp.


Those are perfect, juicy things of beauty, Joe. �Nicely done!


It's actually quite dumb to bread beautiful jumbo shrimp... that's
like those moronic recipes that call for grinding/chopping jumbo
shrimp when small shrimp will do ... no kudos for being a kitchen
jerk.
