I can't stand shrimp.
There, I said it.
I hate all the sea bugs. I just fucking hate them. Especially lobster. It just tastes like butter and pepper or whatever you put on, it has NO flavor.
...Crab was pretty good, but I've only had real crab once. It was very sweet and tasty.
But shrimp and stuff just taste like garbage to me. I fucking hate it. They're gross to eat too, just little poo pods.

If you put nothing on it it literally tastes like nothing.
Comparing some plain lobster to a steak, both just cooked by themselves with nothing lobster would go in the trash.
The sea bugs are also gross. Shrimp are nasty. I'm like 95% sure its garbage peasant food people got tricked into eating.

Sorry, I'm talking about two things here. I know that English is a hard language to grasp, but the lobster or other crustaceans similar have zero personal flavor (Except for some types of Crab I suppose), and Shrimp/sea bugs are gross, nasty filthy things.
I hope you'll practice your English sometime, ESL-kun.

Your writing it terrible then
>But shrimp and stuff
This implies you're talking about lobster and shrimp. You also said
>I hate all the sea bugs
In fact, you said you hated lobster more
>I just fucking hate them. Especially lobster.
Yet you say it tastes like the ingredients you put on it.

I think you need to sort yourself out a bit, anon.

The ONE time I went to Outback Steakhouse and got their Endless Shrimp promo, this is how it went:
>get a plate a shrimp with my entree
>ask for another when the waitress refills my beer
>35 minutes later another plate of shrimp comes out
>only 4 of them and drowning in butter
>eat it
>waitress brought the check without asking if I wanted another one because I had already been there for over an hour at this point
>leave mad

Never went back.

You mean besides going to an allergist and having an evaluation done?
>Buy some cooked shrimp from the supermarket.
>Place a bit of shrimp on the back of your hand for 5 minutes, wash your hands. Wait 15 minutes to see if you develop a rash or anything.
>Hold a bit of shrimp against a single point on your lips for 5 minutes. Wait 15 minutes. Evaluate yourself for any swelling, pain, tingling, rash, ect.
>Take a small piece of shrimp, place it in your mouth, and hold it between your cheek and gums for 5 minutes. Wait 15 minutes. Evaluate yourself for any swelling, pain, tingling, rash, ect.
>Eat a tiny piece of shrimp. Wait 8 hours and hope you don't die.
If at any point you have a negative reaction, realize that you probably have a shrimp allergy and throw your shrimp away. Also possibly call 911 if you can't breath.

Cooked 21-25 count shrimp is $9 a pound at Safeway, just whip up some lemon butter garlic sauce to dip. Just throw in a dollars worth of rice or potato and you're all set.

Unless you really want cheddar biscuits. Those are a bit more involved to bake and a tad messy.

Shrimp are almost free when looking at them on the industrial/corporate scale. They are doing this to curb costs on other seafood, which have all gone up by 20-40% in price over the last two years. Red Lobster will have to keep serving lobster because it is in their name, but ten years from now they won't be called that, and will no longer serve lobster. The last time I went and got lobster, it was a single bite the tail was so fucking small.

Because the target market won't go there anymore, red lobster isn't some god tier fine dining place and if they have to raise prices their customer base isn't going to keep going. It's faux high end and seafood for flyover trash, people with real money dont and wont go there

I wish I could eat shrimp like I used to. Something happened as soon as I turned 20, and eating shrimp gives me hives/swells up my face an hour later. I tried to brute force overcome it by eating more shrimp one time, like a buffet's worth of tempura shrimp and I ended up with my entire head swollen, itchy and painful to touch which took hours to settle down, I'm surprised I didn't die

I have given a total of 23 restaurants one chance to not fuck this up in my lifetime.
Not a single one passed the test.
The only all-you-can-eats you should visit are buffets, and you need to examine the place beforehand to not go during peak hours so when the good shit gets refilled maybe once per hour, it isn't gone before you get up from your table.
