I believe I read that 90% of the shrimp you buy at the store are imported mostly from Vietnam.

I very rarely get shrimp at restaurants for the same reason. Unless they state that its wild gulf shrimp and i trust the place. That is even along shot.

I know the damage I'm doing to myself when I eat them. They're just so damn good.

The sh1t they treated those with is scary.

I like cigars, but aren't they rolled on the inner thighs of virgins ?
That's what I was told any way.

But, shrimp from Vietnam raised in sewer runoff and rice paddies fertilized with human feces, well I gotta draw the line somewhere.:yak4:

Many reasons to ask for and demand fresh-local fish.
There are many places, like Red's Best, right on the fish pier in Boston, that will sell direct to the consumer and even ship it to your door.
