>Shrimp - the cockroaches of the ocean
Ah, culinary wisdom based on internet memes and bro quotes: the cockroach of the mind!
>ate a few and back at the hotel you know what happened :)
Reverted to the fast-food baseline?
Sorry, but no. I've thought that shrimp and lobsters were simply ocean bugs since I was a child in the 80s. It isn't quite accurate in science terms, but still holds out as a thing in my brain. Even if I happen to eat them (Not disgusting, not delicious either)
I'll also mention that folks allergic to shellfish also have to be careful with crickets and other land insects. They have their similarities.
