Well actually once you get around 50 adults boil them then puree into cream cheese with a little chives and garlic, and it makes a great cracker spread.

The second you drop food in the tank, silly...
/Puts down the "Eats, Shoots, and Leaves" book and returns to normal society.

I am really really curious how they taste and if they're safe for consumption as grown in our tanks. I see shrimp as small as my larger crs and cherries all the time, dried out in baskets in chinatown. I assume they're salt water shrimp, but in reality, they could be anything.

They could easily be "river shrimp" or whatever the heck they put in those baby shrimp containers that you can buy as fish food. Those are not very flavorful, I might add.

I wouldn't eat anything that came out of the aquarium. There are so many products in there that cause cancer. Dont be surprised about that colon cancer in 10 years. haha
Have you seen the little shrimp in cup o noodles? Wow, how do they shell such little shrimp? They are just about the size of my cherries too!!

Sadly, that sounds really good right now...the Cup O' Noodles, I mean. Mysis never sounds all that good. I am, however, enjoying the S.O.S. Garlic food from Captain Bob. (My fish actually are, but I took a nibble and it wasn't too bad.)
