Shrimp is the number one most popular seafood among consumers, and White Shrimp is one of the most popular shrimp species, known for their sweet flavor and tender texture. A highly versatile, all-purpose seafood that can be prepared in a variety of ways – grill, bake, sauté, broil – with a variety of flavors, seasonings and sauces, and for endless applications – bowls, salads, tacos, stir fry, surf and turf, appetizers, soups, stews, skewers, and more. Shrimp are raw, with the shell cut down the back and vein removed for an “easy peel” feature meant to reduce labor and preparation time. Each shrimp is individually quick frozen within hours of harvest to retain the natural, premium quality fresh taste and texture. These shrimp are accurately weighted and counted to deliver uniformity and consistency in every bag. Shrimp are a healthy, nutrient-rich seafood – an excellent source of protein, naturally low in fat, carbohydrate free, and gluten free. Sustainably and responsibly sourced according to the Global Aquaculture Alliance’s Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP). All shrimp are certified 2-star or higher (sourced from BAP certified processing plants and farms) and have full transparency from pond to plate.
