Let me explain what bagoong is made of fermented fish and Bagoong shrimp is made of shrimp paste with salt.
Why is bagoong shrimp color pink? When the bagoong fish and shrimp and mixed into with the salt the color changes into pink.

Each sold individual for PHP 50.00 ($1.00)

vary)

People often eat bagoong shrimp with kare kare, rice, pinakbet, green mango and binagoongan.
