True. The statement should say "adult brine shrimp, by themselves, have little if any nutritional value" and that "adult brine shrimp is nutrtionally comparable to popcorn" is one of my favorites.
Newly hatched brine contain a highly nutrititous yolk solk whose value decreases the longer they are held within the first 24 hours.
