I know this is a video about fish sticks, but I just wanted to say thank you ladies and Jack. Please keep on keeping on. Your content is wholesome and good and what the world needs!
Costco's fish sticks (Trident brand) are really 100% fish. Surprisingly they taste great! Rated high by Consumer Reports. They make for great fish taco's.
Lately, it seems they've been using belly meat, that doesn't taste like it's fresh. I'd say fishy, but almost gamey in a way. I just buy the cod fillets and make my own batter. Par fry them, then vacuum seal and freeze. easy-peasy.
So nice to see that they're not food snobs. You know many chefs and food professionals would turn their noses up at fish sticks. But sometimes, you just want the fish sticks of your youth. (And Spaghettios too. There; I said it.)
@@raymondgordon-c2n, and the truth is that they taste very tinny from the tin can...but I still love them. Best eaten with potato chips used as a spoon.
As a dad in the early 80sI really enjoyed grabbing the aluminum foil pan and loading it up with the Gortons fish sticks for my little daughter and me. Ketchup was our fave condiment but sometimes I'd toss together some mayo and sweet pickle cubes for a super quick but yummy tartar sauce. This was a Friday or Saturday night while watching TV thing. Just grab and eat, no formalities.Talk about good "comfort food" man oh man!🙂
I loved the last words of the ladies. Bridget saying "I think he called me old"... Lolololol. And then Julia saying, "I heard it".... I am laughing so hard right now 😆😅😂🤣🤣😂😅😆😁😁😆😂🤣😂😅😆
My inner child was hurting today so I bought some fish sticks and fries, made some tartar sauce and settled in with some cartoons and childhood favorites. Feeling a little better now.
A must have with fish sticks are Tater Tots! Gorton's always my go to choice for fish sticks. I'll agree that fish sticks and tater tots take me back to my elementary school days where they had them every Friday.
My kiddo LOVES fish of any kind. Sometimes for fun we have “sticks and tots” for dinner. I enjoy it all too, as long as I have my malt vinegar. She wants ketchup on everything. 😊
I used to eat them with ketchup as a school kid. Was just wondering what I would eat with them. Probably ketchup (I’m 65). Or perhaps air fry and make a Caesar salad! God’s blessings for your family for a healthy and joyful 2025!
(177) When I was living in NZ, they had terrific fish sticks (they are called "fish fingers there) always made with whole sliced fish. They were really popular as a "special treat" breakfast with chips and fried eggs on the weekend.
I love the other hosts, Lisa and Hana on tests of products, or especially Lam and tech skill, but these three are what this channel is about and I don't care what they review.
Blatantly missed the Trident brand. They are at Costco and many grocery stores. They have a light and crunchy coating and nice filets of fish. Looks like the Gorton's Whole Filet sticks but even bigger.
I am 60 years old and was raised Catholic. One a year, or two, I crave fish sticks and macaroni & cheese. It puts me right back in the kitchen of my childhood home. I have loved ATK since its inception on PBS many years ago and own, and have gifted, many ATK cookbooks, but I wish they would embrace and share with us information such as fishing practices, humane certification, etc. I understand that they don’t because such information would turn off a segment of viewers (NYT’s Wirecutter doesn’t either). But that information is NOW, not the future, and it helps consumers, most of whom care, make better decisions. The vast majority of people do not want to unnecessarily trash the earth and decimate animals and ocean creatures and want to know better choices.
Costco's fish sticks are good also... I did just buy some recently to eat during Lent... but have purchased them several times... they definitely taste better and yes... they do make excellent fish tacos and add some crunchy texture to the taco.
I like the Aldi brand of whole cod fillets. They have a few choices. I do them in the toaster oven while I make taco fixings, or Nigella’s Bhorta sauce. It’s a quick and easy supper.
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. 🤷♀️
@@jamesherder5757 I usually make my own tartar sauce if I have several people to eat it...I always make too much. However, I have found that I like the cheap Walmart brand tartar sauce a lot more than the pricier one.
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!
I was searching online to see which are the best frozen fish sticks & when I saw y’all had done a video with Jack-I knew I could trust you to steer me in the right direction! Thank you SO much!! 😊💗
Thanks for this. Glad I found it. Surprisingly, it never occurred to me to use frozen fish sticks for easy fish tacos. I will definitely try it soon. Also thanks for the honest, unpretentious reviews.
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)
Gorton's based out of Mass since 1954 when they first introduced fish sticks! (Ownership has changed from General Mills to Unilever to now a Japanese company that focuses on fish, Nissui)
Trident from Costco is the best. I make either a Chipotle Slaw or a Lime Cilantro Slaw and serve it with Trident fish sticks in corn tortillas for a quick easy meal.

@@steveyork8069Can you cite your sources or prove your claim? Anyone can say that about anybody hahah, and the comment above me is right, you could be thinking about the last guy running things, who went through court proceedings saying the same thing about him
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.
Same born in 75 my mom usually bought Mrs. Paul’s growing up. It was always handy to have that tarter sauce mix packet. Every once in a while it would be some other brand or a cheap brand on sale and we would all be like, "where’s the Mrs. Paul’s?” Lol
The Gorton’s potato crunch whole fillets are my fave. There used to be an English brand that was superb and my go-to frozen fish fillets but I haven’t seen it in a very long time.
Excellent video! Many choices at my supermarket so now I will try the winners.... soft potato bun with tartar sauce (maybe a slice of cheese?).. filet o fish sandwich at home YUM
I have been buying the potato, breaded Pollock fillets from Gorton and doing them in the air fryer and they are phenomenal. They make a great basic meal or a fish sandwich. They’re crusty, toasty, and flavorful.
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.
None seem to have the same texture and flavor. We went to Gortons beer battered fillets to get a similar taste. Then though not same Long John Silver's always hits the spot. Or Captain D's. LoL
I like Trident fish sticks from Costco. They go lighter on the breading so the fish shines through. I use them for seafood tacos and they're pretty comparable to Mexican restaurants. I think they are 4 pound bags so they are freezer hogs.
Costcos brand (I dont even remember the name, I just recognize the packaging in the freezer section because I buy them so often) are better than Gortons IMO and cheaper too... Even though I grew up near one of the big fishing ports of the USA my parents were absolutely not seafood/fish eaters and this was about as exotic as it got. Ive seriously expanded my rotation of dishes as an adult but I still comeback to the humble frozen fishstick often. I try to cook from scratch whenever I can but as far as pre-made foods go Fishsticks arent bad and pretty healthy too.
I still remember the elementary school fish sticks and peanut butter cookies. I haven't been able to find those peanut butter cookies that taste like the ones we had at school.
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.
