when i was about 7 years old my dad took us for some food to long john silvers. which was odd because we never ate there. he said they had come out with something new. so i went along,never asking what it was. as my father and sister arrived up to the counter, my dad said he wanted an order of butterfly shrimp. well after i heard that i started screaming and crying. thinking it was actually real butterflies.my dad tried to calm me down as my sister and him looked so embarrassed. i think i may have even called my dad a murderer. well i was crying and crying and my dad couldn't calm me down so he just left me alone and sat down and stated eating them, and as he was eating them i cried more and more. i didnt understand for a couple years what actually butterfly shrimp were.
