Worse beach thing that ever happened to me. We were driving down the beach in LA and a Pelican flew over and took a dump on the windshield. it was about the size of a pie shell. Finally found a car wash and then almost never got it to wash off. Smelled pretty bad, too.
This was pre-BP-spill, but it could have been the result of some other spill, Maybe Exxon Valdez in Alaska. Could have made it that far down, because it was probably twenty years later and surely a pelican could fly from Alaska to LA in 20 years.
Yep, Probably spill related.

I don't know if pelicans venture to the Pacific Northwest. But left really in a state of bewilderment as to why would water bird fly across so many miles of desert to get to a body of water they never flew to before..

Thanks JasonL for the info on the cotton/milk disease. I think I'll toss those shrimp if I see it again, they don't think it's a threat to humans, but why take the chance.
No problem.
If they are too bad, I usually throw them away. Not appetizing for sure.

I always chunked the shrimp withthe chunky Milk/cotton stuff. My only thoughts were that the shrimp's colon had blew up

The blue vein someone else mentioned is the little one that runs along the bottom of the tail. I've seen those for as along as I can remember, and think it's just a vein.
I don't really mean that thin blue vein. What I'm talking about if fat and fluffy and very noticeable.

I always thought a cotton shrimp was a breed of shrimp. Now day we peel and eat them like regualr shrimp.
To tell if shrimp have been dipped with chemicals run your fingers over the shell......
If its pitted they have been dipped.

As the shrimp age they produce ammonia, bleach or chlorine would neutralize it.

Whatever any of you guys are talking about, I don't think I'd touch any of the shrimp described in this thread.
