Until crab legs clambered into my life, shrimp was my favorite seafood. Bottom-feeding tepid-water cockroaches. On ice and dipped in horseradish-heavy cocktail sauce. Or floured and fried. Or lightly sautéed in butter, garlic, basil and coarse black-pepper grinds. My favorite. And America’s second favorite sea prey, right after the can-shaped tuna.

After a comic introduction, we look closely at a shrimp. Eyes on stilts, color patterns, pinchered walking feet, a rostrum. We watch shrimp eat using a strong claw and a fine one; we watch digestion. After eating, shrimp clean themselves. The female lays eggs that cling to her feet. After three weeks, the eggs hatch explosively. Few larvae live to adulthood. We watch an adult shed its carapace with a final leap, leaving it vulnerable; other shrimp attack.

Tuesday, 10 May is National Shrimp Day in the United States. The event celebrates the status of shrimp as the country's most popular seafood item, beating out both salmon and tuna for the distinction.
According to the National Fisheries Institute, the average American consumed four lbs. of shrimp in 2014, the last year from which data is available. And that number continues to rise annually.
Shrimp's popularity has earned the species its own annual day of celebration in the United States, National Shrimp Day, observed each year on 10 May. Consumers throughout North America and around the world are encouraged to participate in the festivities by preparing their favorite shrimp/prawn dishes, and then taking to social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) to share their creations by using the hashtag #NationalShrimpDay.
