Difference:

1. Different living habits: Neopenaeus monodon has strong adaptability to the environment and likes to lurk in sediments, only showing its eyes and tentacles. Lobsters have strong adaptability to dissolved oxygen in water, and can not only climb ashore in an anoxic environment. Shrimp often dives into the sand bottom during the day, and the range of activities is not large.

2. Different shapes: the body color of Neopenaeus monodon is khaki to brown, and the swimming feet are brown or red. Lobster is cylindrical in thickness, slightly flat in back and abdomen, with developed head and breastplate, thick and prickly. Shrimp is slender, with a body length of 1.5~3cm. The whole body consists of head, chest and abdomen. The head and chest of river shrimp are connected, and the back and sides are covered with breastplates or carapace, and the head and chest are thick.

3. Different distribution areas: Shrimp is widely distributed in rivers, lakes, reservoirs and ponds in China. The distribution of prawns ranges from California Peninsula, Mexico and Central America to Colombia and Ecuador. Lobsters are native to Central and South America and northeastern Mexico, and now they are distributed on all continents in the world, with a wide variety, and generally inhabit the offshore seabed or the shores of warm oceans. Neo-Penaeus monodon is a kind of shrimp in coastal shallow water, which often inhabits sandy silt or muddy bottom sea area.

Precautions:

1, the shrimp line on the back of the shrimp is the waste that the shrimp has not excreted. If you eat mud in your mouth, it will affect your appetite, so you should remove it.

2, the color is red, the body is soft, and the shrimp that turns around is not fresh. Try not to buy it. Rotten shrimp must not be eaten.

3. When shrimp and some fruits are eaten at the same time, it should be noted that shrimp is rich in nutrients such as protein and calcium. If you eat with persimmon, hawthorn, pomegranate, grape and other fruits containing tannic acid, it will not only reduce the nutritional value of protein, but also stimulate the gastrointestinal tract and cause discomfort, such as vomiting, dizziness, diarrhea, abdominal pain and other symptoms after tannic acid and calcium combine to form calcium tannic acid.

It is best not to drink a lot of beer when eating seafood, because it will produce too much uric acid and cause gout. Eat seafood with dry white wine, because the fruit acid in it has the function of sterilization and deodorization.
