Raw scampi and raw shrimp can be eaten when raw.

However it's not recommended to eat raw scampi or raw shrimp because you can get potential food poisoning due to the bacteria that the raw scampi or raw shrimp can contain.

I also find raw scampi and raw shrimp disgusting but when cooked both raw scampi and raw shrimp is delicious.

It's best to cook the raw shrimp or raw scampi and have it fully cooked to kill off bacteria especially when feeding the shrimp or scampi to children.

It's not worth the risk of getting sick with food poisoning by eating raw shrimp or raw scampi so always cook it for safety.
