Our Newest Product: Ready to Serve Wild Albacore Tuna

Posted on by

Introducing our newest product: Ready to Serve Wild Albacore Tuna. This our take on “canned tuna” only this one is so delicious, nutritious and clearly the best choice for sustainability. Locally caught Albacore tuna is caught by hook and line method on small vessels who quickly bleed, chill and freeze this fish for optimal quality.

Our tuna is also much higher in Omega 3’s given that the waters of the pacific northwest are colder and promote more fat and oil building in the fish. Great in sandwiches or on salads and it is conveniently packed in an easy to open and store pouch. So when you want to feel good about the food you put into your body and that of your family, the choice is simple. Check out our latest Store feature here.
