re: Do y'all devein shrimp?

Always. In high school I was lazy and didn't clean the shrimp for a shrimp creole. My mom explained to me in front of everyone at the table, by dissecting each shrimp's colon as she came across it over the course of that meal, that people don't want to eat dirty shrimp.

I'm long out of high school now and I'm still lazy, but I also won't eat constipated shrimp. Calandro's sells pre-cleaned shrimp so I just buy those; it's a win win.
