"Whoa, I said whoa. Just the look of this round, plastic container is enough to drive you wild: a mass of Fear-Factoresque shrimps, shells, and other things joined in a sticky-tan sea of Thai intensity. When you pick away the whole in-shell shrimp and nuts and chilies, and herbs you get the unmistakable flavor of Thai Hot-and-Sour Shrimp Soup, for which this snack is named. It may be a little sweet for some, and a little weird - but the combo of lemongrass, kaffir lime and crustacean funk gives this snack a very high place on my Snackin' All Star Team."
