Speaking from first hand experience ...... YUM
Just add butter and garlic.

I read about this a few days ago. All kidding aside, the introduction of a non-native species can upset the whole ecosystem. One can not predict all of the effects of this alien prawn invasion. I happen to like oysters.

Many, many moons ago (40 +/-) I bought some prawns (12/lb) off of a shrimp boat in Delcambre, LA. They were marinated in beer, wrapped with bacon and grilled. YUMMO! Did I mention beer?
PS:
The Delcambre town council and mayor Carrol Brousard, passed an ordinance in June 2007 making sagging illegal, expanding an existing state indecent exposure law to add underwear to the list of what cannot be exposed.

They get pretty 'chewy' when they get that big.

So, we just steam them a little longer then, right?

As long as they don't glow in the dark, I think they are fair game.

Well, since this involves garlic butter, I'd say it depends on
why they glow in the dark. Are fireflies harmful? What about those naturally luminescent deep-sea fish?
