How many shrimp?

I don't think I would need more than one, and would probably end up sharing part of it. I scrolled down the page after reading the details, and stumbled upon something interesting;

In November 2005, the Global Aquaculture Alliance (GAA) and the Aquaculture Certification Council partnered with Wal-Mart [Yes, that Wal-Mart,] the largest retailer in the world!] to certify that all of Wal-Mart's shrimp suppliers adhere to GAA's Best Aquaculture Practices!
On April 18, 2006, speaking at DePauw University, Charles Fishman, the author of "The Wal-Mart Effect" (How the World's Most Powerful Company Really Works, How It's Transforming the American Economy), said, "Wal-Mart can change the way food is raised or people are treated around the world...so, if Wal-Mart starts selling shrimp that is environmentally certified, guess who else is gonna start selling shrimp that is environmentally certified? Target and Kroger and Safeway."

this gets confusing, for such tasty bugs.
langoustines are a european version of a lobster, aka dublin bay prawns.
langostinos are different things in different places, much like prawns and shrimp.
actually, ithey're closer to a hermit crab, but they're in the same order as as lobsters (diffrent infra-order).
iany of these can be either squuat lobster, spiny lobster, or crayfish, or shrimp. depends on who you want to believe.
butter and lemon please!

Yum, yum. I need butter and lemon too, Buck.
I scrolled down the thread too, and was reading about Blue Diamond Ventures, Inc. They mentioned something about
goat being "the world's most eaten meat".
I've had goat, about a 1/2 dozen times. I'll never get used to the taste. To me it tastes like the animal smells. I just can't stand it.
Has anyone else eaten goat? And did you like it?
The world's most eaten meat? You can have my share!

Got to have butter and lemon with almost all sea food. As for goat meat it is pretty game to me too. Never cared for it much because of it. I'm also not a big fan of lamb either.

Nope, me neither about the lamb.
Maybe lamb chops grilled once a year?

Can't say much about the first part, that that part I can understand and endorse!!

You're killing me, BT. LOL I just bought a dozen clams at the farmers market this morning and plan to use them with pasta tonight. I like to steam them in their own juice (no water) and save the juice for chowder. Some how clam urine conch chowder no longer appeals to me.
