I've done my own taste testing and got the same results: Gorton's for the win. I thought that somehow I SHOULD like the whole fish ones better, but the truth is I prefer the cheap, chopped fish ones, and for the same reason: they taste just like the ones from my childhood (and that was a long, long time ago). And yes, I sometimes use them for an easy fish taco. I also recommend Gorton's crunchy breaded filet for making your own copycat McYouKnowWhose filet of fish sandwich.

@@jamesherder5757, I'm afraid I'm not much help there. I've never found a store-bought tartar sauce I like, so I make my own, and I do it by taste, so it's different every time. It also depends on whether I'm planning to store what I don't use in the fridge, because if I am, I don't use fresh green onion. My usual ingredients are mayonnaise, minced capers, dill relish, dill weed, lemon juice, horseradish, onion salt, and olive brine. Sometimes minced green onion or dry green onion dip mix. But I just keep adding and adjusting until it tastes good, and it's different every time. 🤷‍♀️

I’ve always preferred Gortons to any other brand simply because their fish sticks and fillets tasted the best and the coating on the outside wasn’t too thick cooked up crunchy. Nice to know my choice in a fish stick, when I rarely want one, is validated

Fish sticks were a go to comfort food growing up on 70's and 80's. Mrs Paul was the best - I liked their tarter sauce mix the most. Unfortunately I don't think fish sticks have been the same since they got rid of trans-fats - same with frozen pizza. Now I make my own. But the memories are worth a million. And every now and then I do indulge.

I'm super happy to watch the three of you... Always a pleasure!!!!

Thanks guys! Where was this when we needed it at the beginning of Lent. I used a few of these, mostly choosing whole fish and toasting them to a crispy surface. I like to make Nigella’s Fish Finger Bhorta so I smash them into the sauce. (I make likewise smashed in a curry sauce)

Agreed on the Gorton's. I have become inexplicably interested in fish sticks lately. They are very satisfying. And I went through a bunch of brands before I settled on Groton's. They have a good crunch (after 15 minutes or so at 425f) and the fish is flaky and moist. There is a "Parmesan encrusted" variant that really shines although the Parmesan aspect is lost on me.

My favorite as a kid growing up was Mrs Paul's fish and chips! Was a real treat back then. Wish I could still find them somewhere .😮 good quality and taste!

Gorton's has always been my go-to frozen prepared fish. It's great as a fish taco, with homemade tartar sauce.

1970's fish sticks were firmer real planks of fish, and were more tasty because they weren't watery in the interior texture. Perhaps they were a different species of firmer fish altogether, or just not cheaply pumped up by weight with added water.

I have some very specific food Intolerances, one of which is paprika in all the variations of extracts and such. I have bought Gorton's for years because they have several styles of breaded fish/shrimp that has no paprika in the breading.

Can you guys put all of these types of videos in one playlist for easy finding if you already haven't?

I have two kinds in my freezer, the trident from Costco and also Aldi brand which is really good also

Back in the day I used to buy Van de Kamp's battered halibut fillets. Even then they were somewhat expensive, but actually delicious. They no longer offer this fish as it's become way too expensive. There is one brand that seems equal to it, but at a cost of $12.99 for just 10oz which is above what most of us can afford, but for a special treat, probably worth a go, and I will try it one of these days.😁👍😎✌🗽

When I just want to have some fish sandwich makings for dinners when I'm working late at the office, I buy a box of Van de Kamp's current version of battered fillets and a bag of hot dog buns. The fillets are pretty durn small these days, but they fit well two-to-a-bun. Then I also make sure I have a bottle of "Louisiana"-brand tartar sauce, which is generous on the pickle, and a jar of "Mrs. Dash - Extra Spicy" blend, because mixed together they make a grand remoulade. Jack or Mozzarella or Muenster cheese to melt on top of the assembled sandwich, and some greens (with or without tomato) to garnish. It's not everybody's idea of a proper fish sandwich, but I know what I like.

For years now, I've bought only filets----Gorton's or Van de Kamps on sale---and the breaded type fries up crispier than the battered ones

I loved fish sticks so much when I was a kid. Birdseye all the way.
