Living in the middle of the country, we obviously don’t have fresh seafood, despite what the sign at Price Chopper says. Ever since I was little, I never really ate seafood. I used to eat fish sticks, until my grandma was like “I don’t eat fish cause the water is polluted.” And from then on, fish grossed me out. Recently I have been trying some. We went out Friday for his mom’s birthday to Red Lobster, I had a bite of her lobster, some lobster pizza, and some of his shrimp. Then Saturday for dinner I had fish and chips. So in looking through my cook book, I saw a shrimp recipe and decided to try it. Her recipe is cooked in the oven, we cooked ours on the barbecue grill.
