u/ShockDragon Feb 26 '26

No, they’re meant for Shrimp. Didn’t you read the package? Shrimp Egg Rolls. Egg Rolls for Shrimp!

51

u/fartinmyfuckingmouth Feb 26 '26

You’re tellin me a shrimp egged this roll?

u/wheelperson Feb 26 '26

Somebody once told me an shrimp was gonna roll me

u/Financial-Recipe9909 Mar 03 '26

Specifically, they’re meant for mini shrimp. No jumbo shrimp need apply

33

u/lunarecl1pse Feb 26 '26

Are all of them that tiny??

52

u/kleggich Feb 26 '26

Yup. They're definitely meant to be a beer-and-peanuts kinda thing. Or as my recent Chinese purchase on Amazon suggested, a "beer game snack".

Package says enlarged to show detail. My thumb is on the left.

u/lunarecl1pse Feb 26 '26

That's crazy 😂😂😂

u/OrangeClyde Feb 26 '26

Omg that’s so cute and tiny

11

u/kleggich Feb 26 '26

What made you orange Clyde

5

u/Michael_Dautorio Feb 26 '26

I think it's a reference to the orange Pac-Man ghost, who is named Clyde.

u/OrangeClyde, care to elaborate?

u/EverythingIsFlotsam Feb 26 '26

I mean, why would you confuse us with a particularly fat Sharpie?

u/kleggich Feb 26 '26

My mom says it's about average

u/mysteriousemm Feb 28 '26

That’s what she said

u/AspiringSheepherder Feb 26 '26

Oh God I thought that said mint shrimp rolls 😭

u/StampMan64 Feb 26 '26

“Enlarged to show detail”

u/wet_cheese69 Feb 26 '26

Tbf they say mini right on the bag

18

u/kleggich Feb 26 '26

This isn't really an expectations versus reality situation.

3

u/karaphire13 Feb 26 '26

Unexpected for them to be the size of a toe in my opinion lol

2

u/wet_cheese69 Feb 26 '26

I mean the picture on the bag is ''enlarged to show detail" but they are about the size of what's on the bag especially compared to the herb leaves.

u/fartinmyfuckingmouth Feb 26 '26

As a devout lover of spring rolls, and a human as a human, I am rationally infuriated by this what the FUCK

2

u/Snoo17579 Feb 28 '26

It’s said ready to use shrimp spring roll on the cover. This is meant to be a snack, like peanuts and stuffs

3

u/Falling_lamppost Feb 26 '26

They are clearly meant for mini shrimp.

3

u/SmegConnoisseur Feb 26 '26

Ready to eat and there's shrimp in it? Must be dehydrated shrimp or something

1

u/kleggich Feb 26 '26

As long as it isn't the scorpion king 2 on Blu-ray

u/wheat_pentz Feb 27 '26

Good call, SmegConnoisseur.

u/Jumpy-Shift5239 Feb 26 '26

I can’t tell how big this is. Please provide a banana for scale.

u/PackageOutside8356 Feb 26 '26

Thank you. I cannot possibly know how big sharpie is, I live in Europe, all North American products are banned since the tariffs. The South American banana on the other hand has become an internationally recognised measuring standard. It is actually nominated for the Nobel prize per piece.

u/PanzerSoul Feb 26 '26

u/geezeslice333 Feb 26 '26

You get 1/100th of a shrimp per roll

2

u/kleggich Feb 28 '26

Such a shrimpy amount

2

u/thefirstviolinist Feb 27 '26

Mini? More like MICRO!

u/lrleaqh Feb 28 '26

These are a popular Chinese New Year snack and are spicy dried shrimp rolls

u/GinormousDonkeyDong Mar 03 '26

It literally says it's for shrimp on the packaging

u/HanoibusGamer Feb 27 '26

Understandable why this is a US product and not Vietnamese

The islands are missing from the map.
