bettergoods Sweet Chili Breaded Shrimp vs Gorton's Breaded Butterfly Tail-On Shrimp

Both are 9-ounce frozen breaded shrimp with about three servings and 7g of protein per serving, so the real split is flavor and nutrition. The bettergoods Sweet Chili is the lighter pick: far less sodium and fat, with a sweet-heat glaze instead of a plain panko crust. Gorton's Breaded Butterfly is the safer crowd-pleaser, with a long track record and thousands of ratings behind it. Buy bettergoods for a flavored, lower-sodium dinner; buy Gorton's for a neutral, crispy shrimp that works with any sauce.

• Choose the bettergoods Sweet Chili if you want a sweet-and-spicy glaze, much lower sodium and fat, and shrimp you can oven-bake, pan-fry or deep-fry.
• Choose the Gorton's Breaded Butterfly if you want a plain, crispy panko shrimp that suits cocktail sauce, tacos or salad and has a long, well-reviewed history.
