My question on what the black line down a shrimps back is received 12 mail responses. 11 said it should be cleaned out. 7 said it was digestive remains or equivalent, 3 said it was a vein. One claimed that it is the nerve cord, and that mercury poisons tend to accumulate in nervous tissues. Thanks to all - I think I will only patronize restaurants that clean it out from now on.
