I just know it's going to be insane there all week and I can't deal. I'm going to attempt whole foods early tomorrow and will decide between the "fresh" (thawed) stuff at the fish counter or whatever they have in the freezer. And pay twice as much as I would have at Costco. :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shrimp-cocktail-question#post-2368647 Tue, 24 Nov 2015 17:58:41 +0000 BSB 2368647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You can get frozen peeled deveined shrimp from costco. Sometimes when I get the shrimp trays from the grocery store they have this film on them. It's not bad, but I could tell it was prepackaged shrimp tray. You could get bigger shrimp if buy frozen shrimp. Plus, you'll have your own stash when you come home. Great. Now I want shrimp! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shrimp-cocktail-question#post-2367593 Mon, 23 Nov 2015 21:14:51 +0000 Foodnerd81 2367593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jlm22: ugh! I am thinking of going to the new whole foods first thing weds morning- potentially with the toddler. It may be a huge mistake... And I can't even have wine after. But they sell chocolate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shrimp-cocktail-question#post-2367589 Mon, 23 Nov 2015 21:11:15 +0000 jlm22 2367589@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just wanted to say I went to the S&amp;S on Broadway this afternoon because I was being lazy and it was already a disaster. Wine was needed after! Don't go there. Haha :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shrimp-cocktail-question#post-2367571 Mon, 23 Nov 2015 20:56:07 +0000 Foodnerd81 2367571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok good. I'm all about the easiest option. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shrimp-cocktail-question#post-2367546 Mon, 23 Nov 2015 20:30:12 +0000 Meowkers 2367546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes you'll be fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shrimp-cocktail-question#post-2367533 Mon, 23 Nov 2015 20:18:00 +0000 MrsSRS 2367533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Should be fine if you keep it cold. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shrimp-cocktail-question#post-2367484 Mon, 23 Nov 2015 19:19:36 +0000 Foodnerd81 2367484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm bringing shrimp cocktail to thanksgiving. Can I buy the ready to eat (not frozen) kind on weds morning and have it be good on Thursday afternoon? Or am I better off buying frozen and thawing myself on Thursday? I'll make my own cocktail sauce to be fancy, but I don't particularly feel like cooking the shrimp myself. Definitely not peeling and deveining- we aren't that fancy. </p> <p>Willing to go to the store first thing weds but I'm avoiding the crowds after that. </p>
