Ranking Frozen Seafood Dishes At Costco From Worst To Best
BY Carmen Varner
8. Galilean's Kitchen
Each pack of Bacon Wrapped Scallops from Galilean's Kitchen has 16 pieces, but they are of varying sizes and types, making for an uneven cooking experience.
The bacon is soft rather than crunchy, and the whole thing tastes firm and chewy. However, they lack flavor and may need some seasoning or sauce.
7. Trident Seafoods
Alaska Salmon Burgers from Trident Seafoods use pink, keta, and/or sockeye salmon and offer a salmon taste and aroma with a lingering salty aftertaste.
The salmon leaves a little to be desired with its slightly chewy texture. It may taste better slathered in sauce and sandwiched between a bun and other toppings.
6. Phillips Crab Cake
Phillips crab cake minis come in a package that weighs just over 1 pound and contains 36 pieces. The minis have a soft and pillowy texture with a mild flavor.
You can taste the herbs, but there isn't any lingering fishiness. They can feel a bit oily, but the bite-sized food is excellent for a quick meal and has a satisfying flavor.
5. Royal Asia
The Royal Asia coconut shrimp with sweet Thai chili sauce is a convenient dish available in a 2-pound box. It has a pleasant, crispy, yet jagged texture from coconut.
The shrimp may leave some oil on the pan but doesn't drip. The sauce is mainly sweet with a hint of spice, and its shrimp-to-coconut ratio, flavor, and texture are all on point.
4. Foppen
The Foppen smoked salmon bagel sandwich offers a good balance of textures from the bagel's crunchy exterior and the sandwich's bouncy softness.
The salmon is buttery and soft but salty and the cheese spread is flavorful. The product is convenient and the price is good, and since it's not cured, it's not technically lox.
