"Hi, this is Rich Buccola here in NYC and on behalf of Expert Village today I'm going to show you how to make shrimp cocktail. Cost of shrimp here in NYC buying fresh shrimp these are jumbo shrimps. The largest ones they had they were $15 a pound, that is kind of pricey. There are different times when I'm sure shrimp or running better in the ocean and prices will come up and down, check your local fish market. Different size shrimp will also mean different size prices. I like the big jumbo ones and your guest will too so if you love your guest go out and get good ones. Just you know relatives you really don't care about. I'm kidding on this one, you can get the medium shrimp for them. Again prices will definitely be higher and lower different times of the year. I'm sure if you go to your supermarket and buy them they are going to be cheaper than the fish store. But you got to watch, make sure they don't smell old in all those areas that I discussed earlier about buying shrimp in the supermarket. Make sure that you look for those black marking, those black markings mean a no no. So again shrimp is costly but if you love your family save a little money, don't go out to the bars three times a week go out to and save extra money and have some shrimp with your family. Go make shrimp cocktail, my name is Rich Buccola and on behalf of Expert Village thank you for watching."
