  • They have no viens!!

  • @NinjaAnybody True - it's not a ciculatory vein in that sense. It's a 'sand' vein - or in other words part of the digestive tract. Which means you REALLY don't want to eat it. Me renaming common parlance wouldn't change that! ;-)

  • You're cool, seriously. 

  • @Claviale Thank you ;-)

  • i mean when you cook a shrimp but its all the body...whole the body , the body is complete....??

  • @cejulioDark I got it! Ok - often in dishes in which the shrimp is prepared whole - with the head and tail intact, including the shell, you'll see where a concientious cook still made a slit right through the shell in order to remove the vein. It's a bit tricky, because you don't want to take off the shell, legs, head or tail. This way the shrimp is still cleaned, but intact. Leaving the shrimp whole like this makes for some phenomenal flavor! Thank you!
