Calories in Shrimp

  • I realize this happens all the time, but I found it frustrating today. I purchased several 1 lb. bags of frozen, raw, peeled, and deveined jumbo shrimp from the local Wal-Mart for fast meals. These bags are all identical EXCEPT the nutritional information on two bags states that the calories in a 4 oz. serving is 35 calories, and the other two bags states that the calories in a 4 oz. serving is 100 calories.

    Now, I do not count calories, but this is frustrating. All the other info is the same except for protein. The higher calorie bag has a higher protein content. Hm.

    Weird.

  • How silly and annoying! 4 oz of shrimp is about 100 calories. Maybe the lower cal bag meant 4 shrimp! Same processor on bags? I'd check the website and let them know the discrepancy.
