“Butterfly yum shrimp”

These are some of the best frozen shrimps out there. A perfect texture of shrimp with crispy coating. The taste is amazing by itself, but can be dipped into other sauces. They are filling, delicious, and restaurant quality but at your home.

I have to have an equal number of the latter because, otherwise, they would be the first to disappear, lol. I plan for everyone to have a fish sandwich, with lots of popcorn shrimp...but, everyone dives into the butterfly shrimp. Gorton's makes it so it is worthy of restaurant fare. You cannot go wrong with Gorton's.

This product is a mainstay at my house and it's probably one of the best Gorton's products among a lot of very good quality Gortons frozen fish products that you may be aware of already such as the grilled salmon. The butterfly shrimp are juicy and succulent and are quite large compared to any other Frozen butterfly shrimp product which is why we keep coming back for more because this is a premium product that makes us feel like we are being treated at a high level because large shrimp do make a difference versus smaller shrimp. The price is very attractive as well and very fair for the large shrimp you're getting and the amounts that come in the box. Preparation is extremely easy and fast as well which makes this product an A+ product overall. Some fried shrimp products have absolutely no taste but the batter itself but in this particular product you can taste the fresh shrimp as the predominant taste and that is all the world of a difference.

I was so happy to find this product at my local grocery store. The coating was indeed crunchy. The shrimp were light and tender. It was a pleasant surprise that there wasn't an abundance of breading nor were the shrimp greasy. Just an all around pleasant product.

“Mostly bread, not enough shrimp”

My first time trying these, and needless to say I'm disappointed. While they didn't taste bad, they were mostly just 'okay', and each piece seemed to be well over 50% breading - there was just a tiny piece of shrimp near the tail end.
