*WILD SALMON CO-OP*

PRESENTING: "The good stuff" since 2002

WILD ALASKAN
SOCKEYE SALMON
≈

THIS PREMIUM HEALTH FOOD IS: MSC CERTIFIED SALMON FROM A SUSTAINABLE FISHERY.
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
Chris White, 35-year Alaskan commercial fisherman, has glazed, vacuum-packed, boneless, flash-frozen, wild sockeye fillets and sockeye portions--plus hot and cold smoked sockeye--at fisherman to market prices!

Tip: Flash-frozen fish is as excellent as one-day fresh fish—and will last all year!
-------------------------------------------------------
THE WHY AND WHAT:

Wild salmon is my passion because of its taste and health benefits. My intention is to help educate and make this amazing food available to more people at the lowest possible prices. The salmon comes from the only all-refrigerated fleet in Bristol Bay. The boats are captained by fishermen who share the vision of the highest attainable quality.
There are five species of wild salmon that return to Alaska from the deep North Pacific ocean each year. Along with King (Chinook) salmon, Sockeye (Red) are the best tasting salmon with the most omega-3 oil. It is the true Prince.

2011 CO-OP NEWS

• RADIATION: I have a stack of reports pertaining to the Japanese radiation leaks and the effects on seafood. They are from NOAA, EPA, FDA,
including alternative sources. While local Japanese fish have been affected, monitoring as far as Dutch Harbor and the North Pacific shows no
contamination of any salmon.

• CERTIFICATION: Along with the existing Marine Stewardship Certification, Alaskan salmon received the Responsible Fisheries Management Certification from the Global Trust Certification Committee. Ninety-six percent of US wild salmon comes from Alaska.

• HEALTH: The high levels of Omega-3 in sockeye help boost moods, memory, heart & brain health, immunity, weight control, and now studies
show it helps prevent gum disease. Also, a scientific study on digestibility concluded fish is the easiest protein on the tummy.

• SMOKED SALMON: Hot smoked has been cooked by the heat of the smoked and is flakier than cold smoked (lox) which is cured and seasoned
by the smoke and usually sliced thin.

• THE MARKET: Though still above historical averages, the Bristol Bay sockeye run came in 25% short of forecast. Could be many varied environmental factors at work. Demand is high, sockeye supply lower than expected. Our market raised the price we pay twenty-five cents-per-pound. Because of the financial strain many feel, I'm going to feather this increase over two years (see below).

• HALIBUT: Sorry, not this year.
