This was posted on the Internet for someone who asked for a recipe like one in the frozen food section called Margaritaville's Island Lime Shrimp which I think is fantastic but I can't find it. Had it in Florida or NY I think. I'm still searching...Update: I found it in the freezer at Target! I still want to make this though!
