First, let's take a look at the macros. Each of these are listed in grams and as usual, normalized to 200 calories for easy comparison, so we're always comparing apples to apples.

Polyunsat. Fat | 0g | 3g |
Saturated Fat | 0g | 3g |
Next, let's take a look at the Vitamin density. These values are shown in units of percent of recommended daily intake. And since we're showing 200 calories worth, this means anything above 10% is good.
Nutrient | seaweed | catfish |
Choline | 11% | 0% |
Vitamin A | 0% | 1% |
Vitamin C | 0% | 0% |
Vitamin E | 56% | 0% |
