Why Buy Wild Salmon Online from Us
Ever wondered what makes us Alaska’s top choice for fresh, wild-caught salmon or Alaskan King Salmon? The Wild Salmon Co. is dedicated to the notion that we should all know where our food comes from; that it strengthens our community and our biosphere when we buy sustainable, locally-sourced food. As consumers, we need to be educated about what we buy and what we eat, especially when it comes to seafood. It is easy to buy products that harm our oceans, but responsible choices like sustainable seafood delivery help preserve marine ecosystems. As fishermen, we strive to educate people about the sustainability of wild Alaska seafood and especially wild sockeye salmon online.
1. Because it's Pretty Darn Delicious!
Whether you grill, bake, fry, poach, or eat wild salmon fillets bought online raw, trust me, this will be the tastiest salmon you've ever experienced! If it's not, I'll come cook it for ya because you probably did something wrong.
2. 100% Sustainable~ Always Wild-Caught
Bristol Bay is one of the best-managed fisheries in the world, and it's home to the largest run of sockeye salmon on the planet. The fishery is biologically managed, not economically, so that decisions are made to ensure the health of the species and the continued health of the fishery. We can bore you with certifications, but you can't argue with this… In 2017, the Nushagak River had its largest return of salmon since 1893! Need we say more? This is exactly why we proudly offer sustainable seafood delivery that puts the planet first.
3. Don't Be a Victim of Seafood fraud
Seafood is the most mislabeled food in the United States. Today, 90% of the seafood consumed in the U.S is imported, yet less than 1% is inspected for fraud. Oceana, a U.S.-based company dedicated to protecting our world's oceans, conducted a massive
study in 2016 and found that 33% of the 1200 samples from 672 retail outlets were mislabeled. Salmon was one of the most common species to be mislabeled. Read their summary report here. Unfortunately, we see farmed salmon sold as wild salmon all
the time. Don't be a victim.
4. NO GMOs
Did you know that most farmed salmon is genetically modified? Farmed Salmon is the first GMO animal approved for consumption in the United States. Scottish, Faroe Island, Norwegian, and ocean-raised salmon are all fancy marketing terms for farmed Atlantic salmon. Not only can farmed salmon be GMO, but it is also filled with toxic PCBs and colorants to turn their flesh orange.
5. Support Small Business
Our fishing family has been in this business in Alaska since the 1970s. We are a small family-owned and operated business dedicated to providing outstanding Alaskan Black Cod, wild salmon, and more. When you buy wild Alaskan Salmon available for sale online from us, there is no middleman. Our salmon comes from a small fisherman-owned co-op, where we as fishermen are personally invested in the quality of the seafood we catch and the products we offer, whether it’s an Alaska Cod fillet or a seasonal Salmon & Cod combo online.
