Gorton's Breaded Butterfly Tail-On Shrimp vs SeaPak Crispy Breaded Butterfly Shrimp

Buy the SeaPak box if you want more shrimp for a family meal or party tray; it holds 36 pieces and 12,840 ratings average 4.6. Buy Gorton's if you want a smaller, panko-coated batch and trust a brand that has sold frozen seafood since 1849. Both are breaded butterfly shrimp with tail on, and both bake or air fry well. Owners of both brands report the breading can soften if the shrimp sit after cooking, so serve them hot.

• Choose the Gorton's if you want a smaller 9.2 oz box with a light panko coating and a brand with a long frozen-seafood track record.
• Choose the SeaPak if you need a big 18 oz box of 36 shrimp for a crowd, with BAP 4-Star sourcing and oven, air fryer or deep-fry options.
