Question

What is jumbo shrimp ????????​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hi,

Explanation:

The way to truly know the size of shrimp you are buying is by the number–called "count"–with which they are labeled. The count gives you the number of shrimp you can expect to get in one pound. ... 21-25, 16-20 Often labeled jumbo, these are my choice when shrimp, prepared with few other ingredients, are the main course.

Answer 2

Answer:

A classic oxymoron can be found in the seafood section of your local grocery store: jumbo shrimp. Sure, "jumbo" means something is big, but "shrimp"? It's more than just a tasty crustacean! It's also a slangy way of calling someone small or short. So "jumbo shrimp" is an oxymoron.
