When some people look at a shrimp they think, "hmm. delicious." when i look at a shrimp i think, "you're a miracle, absolutely incredible. your ancestors have gone back hundreds of millions of years." and to develop a thing as simple as a shrimp cocktail, you have to calculate the hundreds of millions of years that have preceded that moment where you're sitting there with your sauce and fork poised.
