"Scampi"

       Made a very good shrimp scampi dinner by Bertolli this evening (from an aluminum bag, with very nice sauce) but wondered what "scampi" meant.  Connie thought it was "garlic."

       Not too  clear from different sources, but I like etymology online dictionary by Douglas Harper's origin as the plural of Italian scampo meaning "prawn," but ultimately from Greek kampe "a bending, a winding," from the Proto-Indo European root kamp- "to bend."

       Those prawns, those shrimp, those scampi, they do bend!
