There’s a better choice when it comes to seafood. 

 Wild and sustainable, seafood from Alaska is free to roam miles of ocean and roaring icy rivers, and is responsibly sourced by fisherman at just the right moment and in just the right way. This all adds up to superior wild seafood, deep in color, rich in flavor and packed full of vitamins, minerals and omega-3s
