Shrimp

I make shrimp puffs quite often I love to use this brand of shrimp. It tastes very good, and I highly recommend it, especially in recipes

Great with cocktail sauce!!

As a born and raised Louisiana girl, gumbo is a way of life. My grandmother used to use a couple of cans of these (with the packed water) in her gumbo to accent the flavor of the fresh shrimp & crab already in the mix. I recently remembered this little trick & was thrilled to find them cheaper here! The cans came in a great condition, no dents, filled with shrimp, and absolutely made my kids ask me "Wow mom, what did you do different this time? This is so good!" Very pleased with the product. Chef's kiss!

Good quantity and price. Decent for salads / spread use.

Use them in salads

The horrible smell, texture alone... and the taste of chemicals and tin that even when you add flavor, it's impossible to mask. You'd be better off getting them from deli or even frozen.

I like Bumble Bee brand- I really do. They're affordable and taste good. I've always been a fan of their canned sea-food products and buy a lot of canned shrimp and clams from them. Canned shrimp in our store here in Alaska is about $4.00 a can. Way out of my budget. But there are so many yummy meals I can make with this shrimp, that I needed to find an alternative. Amazon (being the wonderful place that it is) had these cans at a much cheaper price with free shipping. I've purchased them four or five times now from Amazon. The cans are always very full. The miniature shrimps are packed tightly with a bit of water. I typically give the water to my cats as a treat. The pure shrimp often upsets their stomach- but the shrimp-flavored water is a huge hit with them. The cans always come with an expiration date over a year away. The cans are never dented or incorrectly packaged. As for the shrimp, themselves, they're all uniformly sized (usually about as big as a nickel) in diameter. They're never over-salted. In fact they taste really mellow in flavor compared to other canned sea foods I've eaten. But I like them. My main concern with this particular brand is that you never know where your shrimp are coming from. I've had cans where the shrimp was raised in Indonesia. Other times they've been from China. Sometimes Bumble Bee offers American-grown products, but I've never had shrimp labeld 'raised in the USA' through this brand. My main concern is that China has very lenient laws when it comes to shrimp farming. They're often fed human feces and are raised in areas where chemical pollution is evident in the water. Obviously I don't want to eat shrimp that have eaten other peoples waste. So I'm always sad when I receive a batch of cans from China. I honestly can't taste the difference- but the mentality of it makes me lose my appetite. I'd prefer I always receive the Indonesian shrimp (a place not as notorious for bad-quality as China). Nevertheless, for the price, I can't complain. It's impossible to find other canned shrimp products for as affordable as Bumble Bee brand. So until my budget allows me to opt for shrimp grown in more reputable parts of the world, I'll continue to buy this brand. They are super yummy! I just wish them weren't from a place where quality food-production is not highly praised.

very good
