What happens if I eat shrimp poop?
Online Answer
The black, slimy "vein" below the flesh of the shrimp is actually the shrimp's digestive tract. Sometimes it is easy to see and other times it is barely visible. It is not harmful to the human body if consumed, and the rationale for removing the tract is based largely on aesthetics.
