Delicious - Memories of Childhood
I have not tasted any prawns as delicious as these since I was a child. My grandmother lived near Leigh on Sea and we would walk to the 'cockle sheds' to meet the boats as they came up the Thames estuary. These taste so fresh and no 'fishy' smell. Well done Tesco. I shall be buying these regularly. Highly recommended.
I'm happy with my purchase and will buy again...
As first timers to this product they are really excellent. Moist and succulent and much better than the peeled prawns we have had in the past. Yes sure, they are a faff to peel, but the eating and flavour experience outweighs the inconvenience. Recommended!
These Are Excellent - Bought Them For Years
I've been buying these for years - they're excellent. Yes, they occasionally have the odd darker-coloured bit (it's safe to eat, no diminishing of taste), sometimes contain the roe (safe and delicious) and they also - newsflash - have shells. If you're only used - as some of these posters may be - to flavourless, spongey little commas, or flavourless, pappy 'king' prawns, then either avoid, or don't be shocked that prawns have other bits than their prawn-cocktail friendly little curve of pinkness. These have a flavour that blows shelled prawns out of the ballpark, and you can sauté those 'annoying' shells for a sweetly oceanic stock and make a cracking paella. Buy them, they taste fabulous. The neggy, 'barely any prawn there' reviews don't reflect the product one single bit.
Uneatable prawns
The bag the prawns came in was open the prawns stunk to high heaven and went straight in the rubbish bin Rate it 0

DO NOT BUY
Tasted nothing like prawns, small, fiddly and rubbery, said the sell by date was Dec 21, would have thought more like Dec 2010, waste of money DO NOT BUY
small and overcooked
Very Small,partly because they have been overcooked prior to freezing and have shrunk and lost colour
Money in the bin.
Disgusting. How can people eat this? This isn't food.
Terrible ! There was no prawns just shell.

Not worth buying.
These were a waste of money. Once you had removed the roe (eggs) and the shells they were nothing more than shrimps, not prawns so the description is misleading in the extreme. The 'prawns' are tasteless and I will certainly not be buying them again.
