I had no idea that the majority of canned Salmon from Alaska is wild, natural and sustainable making it firmer, fitter and a more vibrant fish.
Wild Alaska seafood has no artificial colouring, preservatives, pesticides or GMOs. More importantly, it is sustainable as the Alaskan constitution states that their fish “be utilized, developed and maintained on the sustained yield principle”. In Alaska, “sustainable” applies to the fish, the local communities, the fishermen and women as well as the economic return.

As a parent I know how hard it can be to get the recommended two portions of fish and seafood a week (Including one portion of oily fish like salmon) as per the government guidelines. This really is a great way to get the kids eating oily fish.
