You've just posted pictures of two different types of Walmart panko crumbs. 

 

I don't see how that has anything to do with so called shake n' bake products.

The one on the left in the picture is Walmart's version of Shake & Bake and the one on the right is their panko.  That's EXACTLY what @FeChefwas showing.  

 

As far as it goes, I actually like Shake & Bake - the original and all the knock-offs that I've tried including a brand sold by Aldi.  I didn't grow up with it and neither did Mr. Kim, but I remember years ago @Marlene confessed that she liked it and used it often.  I respected her taste so much that I gave it a try and found we quite liked it.  My only complaint is that I wish it got crispier.

I always bake it on a rack and I find that helps to make it crispier.
