CBS Foods Shark Tank Pitch

Shawn Davis, aka "Big Shake" because he dances in the kitchen (although he didn't explain the "Big" part, so you'll have to use your imagination). He is black but was raised in the kitchen by Italians. I believe the official term is Blackalian.

Shawn created what he calls a healthier version of the burger with his shrimp burgers through his company CBS Foods.

CBS Foods has done $30k in revenue, with orders for $87k with an expected 53% profit. Kevin O'Leary has experience in the seafood industry and knows the price of shrimp can be very volatile, making it a risky investment.

Daymond was seconds from going out when Shawn jumped in and kept the deal alive, however, Daymond went out.

You have to respect the sharks, not letting their emotions for Shawn affect their investment. Shawn is a good guy, but grocery, seafood, and frozen food make for difficult businesses.
