Even in fancy, or at least semi-fancy Italian dishes, a lot of the time the shrimp come with the tails still attached. Does the tail add to the flavor? Or is it just that the tails are hard to remove without pulling some of the meat off? It's a PITA.
If it's a war on drugs, then free the POW's.
It's something to hold onto, without touching the meat.

When you are served shrimp that have had the tails removed, remember the food preparer had to hold the meat with his teeth in order to pull that pesky tail off.
A clear conscience is usually a sign of a bad memory

Not really. Usually when you try to just pull the meat out a substantial amount is left behind. The only way, really, to get tails off cleanly is to peel it off, putting your moldy mitts all over the shrimp.
If it's a war on drugs, then free the POW's.
You squish the tail when you bite it, thus forcing what little meat that is in the tail to be available for your dining pleasure.

You're supposed to give the tails to the cat.
Saves time in food prep and many places buy them already like that.
Squeeze and pull.
Squeeze and pull.
Got it?

Most shrimp comes from China, they don't remove the tail before freezing because it's too much work. Did you ever see a lobster served with the tail AND head?

Here's some really fine Chinese beaver.
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
