First off, these would be best to eat on a PLATE and not
right out of the container, because they are messy. And note – the container is hard to open. We picked them up at the Trader Joe’s at One
Pacific Place in Omaha and proceeded to eat them VERY CAREFULLY in the car we
had borrowed to tool around town, a brand new vehicle that we did NOT want to
drip peanut sauce on.
Speaking of peanut sauce, it comes with the spring rolls and
is very nice. Peanuty! The shrimp are also very good. The package says the whole container is one
serving, but we split it in two and it was just right. The cabbage and carrots are gently crunchy,
which was a good contrast to the rest of the ingredients. The spearmint was the best part!

One idea – they could have used a bit of basil. That would have made the flavor a little more
complex and interesting I think.
These things make a nice lunch. They are not your normal sandwich or
microwave meal, which is cool. But, like
I mentioned at the top of the review, they are MESSY. Make sure you have napkins handy!

| A little bit pricey, but tasty |
At $4.49, they seem a wee bit overpriced for what you
get. But then again, it WAS fresh
shrimp, and I did buy them in Omaha, where fresh shrimp are not easily
available… I say cut .50 cents off the
price tag and it would be better.

| Yeah - shrimp in the heart of the Midwest :) ! |
