I love prawns.  i can see why they are consumed worldwide.  They are delicious
They are so good!  Are they the same thing as shrimp?  
technically they belong to different suborders of decapoda, they are very similar in appearance and the words are often used interchangeably\
are prawns larger?  that's what I've been told.  I love them all!  Glad I am not allergic!
well, the term prawn is loosely used to describe large shrimp especialy that come in 15 or fewer per pound
