Salmon of the very highest grade
The difference between wild and farmed salmon? Wild salmon doesn’t contain antibiotics and is lower in fat and fuller in flavour, which makes it higher grade.
Did you know that some five different types of salmon can be found in the ice-cold waters of Canada and Alaska? Sockeye salmon (also known as blue-back salmon) is perhaps the most stunning version. The fish is caught in June and July and is filleted and IVP frozen the same day by Blue World, ensuring that the fish retains all its vitamins and minerals.
