We stand behind the promise that our customers can “Trust the Gorton’s Fisherman.” We take this promise seriously, and it applies not only to the quality of products we make, but to how we make them. Gorton’s actively supports environmentally responsible management of our natural resources as a way to ensure that our consumers will always have access to healthy and quality seafood products well into the future. Keeping this idea alive and well is a job we must do every day.

As far back as I can remember Gorton’s has been a huge hit in my family. From when my grandmother used to make us fish sticks to now when we eat their delicious grilled shrimp, I can always count on having a great meal whenever Gorton’s seafood is served. So I was really happy when I was asked to try out some new seafood from Gorton’s, more specifically my family was able to try out the following:

Gorton’s Classic Grilled Shrimp are made with large, plump premium shrimp and are prepared in rich delectable sauces, flavorful crunchy breading, or light crispy batter. No matter the style, the preparation is ultra convenient and the taste is absolutely delicious! For the best in shrimp, Trust Gorton’s!

We had the grilled shrimp over pasta and my husband and I both agreed that it was very good, seemed to have just the right amount of spices on it and really made the meal.

Large, tail-on shrimp
Flame-grilled for the authentic taste of outdoor grilling
Marinated with real herbs and spices for a delicious flavor
Cooks in under 15 minutes on stovetop, in oven or microwave
Only 110 calories and 1.5g of fat per serving
Serve on its own, over rice or pasta, or on a salad

Make seafood the life of the party with Gorton’s Crunchy Golden Popcorn Shrimp. With a delicious flavor, fun crunchy coating and no trans fat, this whole, tail-off shrimp is an easy-to-prepare treat for meals, parties or snacks.

This is by far my children’s favorite, my toddler and my tween can eat a whole bag between them, and my older daughter loves this. She asks for it as a snack or as a meal. I think if she could she would eat it all the time. And for me it is convenient that it can be ready in 15 minutes.

Whole, tail-off shrimp
Crunchy golden breadcrumb coating
Delicious traditional flavor.
Conveniently ready from the oven in under 15 minutes

We also received the Grilled Tilapia to try out too but that has not been made as of yet, but I am sure as with the previous products that it is delicious, it has the Gorton’s name and for us that means it is GREAT! I also have the added benefit in sharing the Gorton’s goodness with my readers in the form of a giveaway! How would you like to win a Gorton’s Seafood Prize Pack?
