Shrimp

Do you love shrimp? Well apparently so does the rest of America. May 10 is national shrimp day. Just eat shrimp anyway you possibly can. Boil it, fry it, grill it, whatever suits you. 

Here are some good shrimp tips to make your tastebuds dance and really celebrate this minor holiday:

1. cook the shrimp, then drizzle melted butter all over it
1. put a little piece of butter in a bowl and put the bowl in the microwave
2. cook the shrimp, then cover it in alfredo sauce
3. put your teeth right at the end of the flesh so you get as much meat as possible without any tail
4. cover the shrimp in hot sauce
5. if you put all the shrimp in a bowl after cooking it, a puddle of shrimpy juice should collect at the bottom, dip the shrimp in that puddle for extra flavor

Caffeine

Something I will never consume in large quantities for an experiment or otherwise is highly caffeinated drinks.

Two words: cardiac arrest.

Hagerstown, Md., Oct. 22, 2012:

Aniais Fournier is dead. After drinking 48 ounces of Monster Energy her heart has stopped from “caffeine toxicity”. A lawsuit ensues. But that's not what I'm here to talk about, at least not on that level. Time.com reports that this is a growing problem. Three to five deaths from Monster Energy drinks (depending on your sources) and a few more from other brands such as Five Hour Energy, have been reported.

CNN reports some of the ingredients in the link provided.
