Shrimp-Yuck!

Shrimp
When we used to take vacations in Las Vegas we were amazed at the number of people who crammed into the Golden Gate Casino for the 50 cent (yes, 50 cent) shrimp cocktails. Of course that has been about 25 years ago.
The shrimp cocktails were a large size and according to others--we didn't know--were very good. They looked like the picture above.
Neither I nor Ford were seafood lovers. We do like just plain old fried fish but not clams, scallops, oysters, shrimp or any other fish dishes. And especially we did not like shrimp. I have tried it in cocktails, boiled, fried, baked and any other ways available but none of it appealed to us. I would just see a big craw fish there in front of me on the plate. Some people do eat craw fish tails--not me.
I realize that we are in the minority because I never met anyone who said they didn't like shrimp, in fact most everyone loves shrimp. I guess we are just weird!
I am sure that the casinos now do not serve 50 cent shrimp cocktails any more; probably more like $3.00. Whatever they are I'll pass!
