I think OP bought the platter and later died of shame and/or shrimp poisoning.

Is it weird to buy a party plate of shrimp from the market? Should I feel bad about eating prepared shrimp and marinade while alone?
No, no. Enjoy your shrimp. Stir-fry them. Make them into fajitas. Put them in jambalaya. Make a gumbo. Live your life.

the only use of a marinade on cooked shrimp I can think of is for pickled shrimp. pickled shrimp rule, especially Yucatecan and Jamaican styles with shitloads of chiles.

You CAN brine shrimp, like you'd brine a turkey, pork chops, or chicken before grilling, roasting, whatever.

It...doesn't really add much. Shrimp is already good as is, and even if you really load up the brine with other flavors like herbs and lemon or whatever it just..doesn't do much and makes the shrimp just be salty.
It DOES make them have that really ultra fresh shrimp texture you get sometimes, where the shrimp feels like it's basically bursting apart when you chomp into them, if that makes sense?

But it's not really worth doing imo.

Honestly they taste like sweet chicken tenders with a slightly different texture. I'm sorry that this incredibly wild ride is too much for you to handle.

To prevent embarrassing yourself at the grocery store buy the shrimp with condoms and lube and invite the person working behind the cash register.

Nothing tastes as good as the offerings at your local Bubba Gump Shrimp Company! If you can’t decide what to order, just go ahead and ask your shrimpstress for her recommendation

Shrimp platters are pre-cooked and therefore useless for any of these things. If your life is one of over-cooked shrimp, don't live it like that anymore.


you could put them in a pasta of some sort I guess
