Blue line on the shrimp?

Question

What is the Blue line on the back of the shrimp. or black is it shrimp p**p. i ordered chinese food and my shrimp has some blue line on the back of it, just curious what that is ?

Answer 1

It is the equivalent to the intestine of the shrimp. it is their Digestive Tract, although it is referred to as a vein, which is incorrect because shrimp have an open circulatory system. It is harmless to eat, but most people remove it prior to cooking.

Answer 2

its its spinal cord

Answer 3

Yep - that's shrimp p**p, or commonly called the vein. It's in all shrimp to some extent, but more so in cheaper shrimp. If you ever look at frozen shrimp in the store, the more expensive ones  usually say they are peeled and de-veined. That means they take the p**p out.

Answer 4

Answer 5

Answer 7

There is nothing about it that can hurt you, as long as you can eat shrimp...obviously, if you are allergic to the shrimp, you shouldn't eat that, either...Ha.  don't worry about it.  It's completely aesthetic to have it removed.
