Yup, same here, it makes a huge bowl, just like you have, a large stainless bowl.

Cost....let's see

Shrimp is insane right now, I saw it at 18.99 for 21/25. Even then, I chop the cooked shrimp in half. Trust me, shelling 30/40 count shrimp (so you can put them in whole) suck ass; it's easier and quicker to buy them largee and cut them.

So let's figure 2.5 lbs shrimp $47.50
Large can of clams $7
Fake crab meat is cheap $6
6 Avocados $6
6 Cucumbers $6
Chilis, all, $3
Cilantro .79
Tomatoes $4 for vine ripened
Onion $1
Ketchup $3.50
Lemons would cost you $6/$4.50 for limes, or $3 for bottled lemon juice

$90.79
