“Some blueberry shrimp are indeed Red Cherry Shrimp which have been altered to show blue colors, but the young are born as Red Cherry. True Blueberry shrimp are born clear and take on the blue colors as they grow.”

Blueberry Shrimp are regular shrimp but have a blue color to them. Sometimes dark blue to black in color and sometimes carrying only a light blue shade, it is in questions as to whether these blue shrimps are the result of genetic mutation or being dyed in some way.

Either way they would make an exotic pet, or an afternoon snack. Although at about $6 per shrimp and never really knowing whether it used dyes to make them blue, your probably snacking on one of the most expensive and risky seafood bites around.

I definitely would not eat something that is oddly colored without a good reason as to why it is colored that way. However, even if I did know why it is blue or whatever color it might be I would never buy a single shrimp for $6. Just don't like'em that much.

After reading that in China they put live shrimp in wine, let them plop, swim, dance around in it, and then pick it up and eat it, welllll, the blue shrimp now doesn't look too bad...

Blueberry shrimp in coconut oil. Yummy!

I think it is to pretty to eat I would rather put it in my fish tank.

I think it's pretty.

I agree. And if they are just cherry shrimp, there wouldn't be too much to eat there. They aren't exactly large.
