Products Recipes We Are Gorton’s Responsibility Where to buy .st6{fill-rule:evenodd;clip-rule:evenodd;fill:#FFFFFF;} Frequently Asked Questions Where does Gorton’s source its seafood? Because different species require different water temperatures and growing conditions, Gorton’s sources its seafood from various waters around the globe. Most of our seafood products are wild-caught species, caught primarily in the Bering Sea (that lies between Alaska and Russia), the Barents Sea, the North Pacific Ocean, and the Atlantic Ocean. We also procure farm-raised aquaculture seafood, including tilapia and shrimp, from various countries, including Ecuador, China, Indonesia, Vietnam, and India. Regardless of where our seafood is caught and processed, Gorton’s uses the same strict, rigorous quality control processes, to ensure that we provide you with the safest, most wholesome, and delicious seafood products on the market. What is the expiration date on my item? Gorton’s products do not have an expiration date. We use a “Best If Used By” and print it on each package. This date will be 15-18 months from the date of production. We recommend that you consume the product by this date for the best flavor and quality. Can I consume the product after the Best if Used By Date? Yes- however, we don’t recommend it as we can’t promise that products older than the “Best If Used By” date on the package will be of the same quality. The fish may be drier or the breadcrumbs or batter might be soggier than it would otherwise be. However, it is still perfectly safe to eat if cooked according to the directions on the package. How long can I keep Gorton’s in my freezer? For optimal flavor and quality, use your Gorton’s product before the “Best If Used By” date that is printed on the package. You can find the “Best If Used By” date on the back or side of the package. Where can I find the Air fryer directions?

Yes, you may use a toaster oven but appliances vary by brand and size; thus we cannot provide exact cooking time for every model. However, at Gorton’s, we have tested various toaster oven models and recommend the same cook temperature as indicated on the package as a starting point. Please be sure to monitor the product closely and cook to the internal temperature required on the package for fully cooked fish. It may take longer or quicker than the time indicated on the package.
