But, what ever you do a quick guide:
Best taste...100/200 count shrimp.
Larger shrimp 21-23 count and larger:
1 Thai..."Black Tiger"
2 Ecuadorian
3 Gulf shrimp...for me they are garbage.
Sorry to disagree with you but gulf shrimp are the best in the world.
From Key West pinks, to white shirmp from Louisiana down to Mexico,
they are caught in clean waters and processed right here in the USA
Your tiger shrimp are mostly farm raised....these are the ones you can scoop out of the bin at Walmart for cheap money
Also.regarding MeredithMans question about farm raised salmon.They are not farmed in filthy ponds like shrimp and tilapia,but in ocean cages in fresh water.Most are excellent and we eat them all the time.
