Customer Testimonials
I just wanted to say thank you!
My order of salmon and cod arrived on the day specified. When I opened the package the fish had perfect color.
I had a salmon dinner that night and cod last night and they were so tasty! I enjoyed every morsel!
I look forward to future orders from Vital Choice.
– Donna DeFelice-O'Leary
I love your products! Thank you for making available such healthy, delicious food for those of us who want to eat only the best food on earth! I have been a customer for a few years now and adore your Salmon Burgers, canned salmon, canned tuna and frozen salmon and cod.
Everything is so easy to prepare and absolutely delicious. My 13 year old loves the salmon burgers for any meal (sometimes breakfast) and loves the canned salmon for an after school snack - right out of the can! Thanks again!
– Aleta Bransfield
I am a “fish person”, love it, eat it every day if I could. Always searching for the finest tasting salmon. I have ordered from many sites, and in many shops.
Well folks here it is! I ordered from Vital Choice for the first time 2 weeks ago. I purchased a sampler pack because I didn't want to be stuck with a box of an unappetizing product.
Let me tell you that every piece I received was outstanding, fresh, delicious and perfect. I'm sold on Vital Choice! I can't wait to order again. Thank you for a superior product, but mostly for being true to your word.
– Gail F. in Normal, IL
All I can say is Wow. I received my first order for my husband and I today (I get my dog's fish oil from you). The halibut and salmon were just delicious and the tastiest I have had in a long time. The mussels were out of this world. I didn't think that mussels would ship well, not to mention taste good after shipping, but they were still frozen when I received them (awesome packaging) and just tasted fabulous. All my dinner guests were impressed with the flavor and freshness of all the seafood. Customer for life now!!!
– J.P. Handsel
First order was the sampler. The whole package was absolutely delicious. We were so blown away! This is really sad to admit but this is the first time in my life that I have tasted fresh fish. It didn't smell and it was firm to the touch. Vital Choice you have spoiled us!!
The best part about the sampler was all the different types of salmon. We were able to portion our meals very well because of the small size sampler servings. We used 2 packages each time we cooked and we really appreciated the variety. Just ordered another sampler.
I will never order fish from anywhere else. Vital Choice thank you for helping this country by using safe practices and giving us a delicious and nutritious fish and fruit.
– Rose family
My mom sent me a case of Vital Choice Wild Red™ Sockeye Salmon. I’ve been eating that over spinach with a squeeze of lemon for lunch. For like, two weeks. – Jeanine Celeste Pang, Associate to the Editor-in-Chief of W magazine, writing in the the daily W blog feature “How W Editors Are Getting in Mid-Winter Shape”. (You'll also see that two W editors use the cleanse programs from Frank Lipman, M.D., for whom we assembled three special Dr. Lipman BE WELL Packs.)
I want to thank you for your excellent service. I made a mistake ordering; when I called, you were concerned enough to find the order, change the shipping and get me the salmon when I needed it for Christmas Eve. Thank you for that, but more importantly, thank you for such excellent, healthy and clean products. Your company was like finding gold for my family. – Jan Jessee
I appreciate your courtesy, which is on par with the excellent wild fish and seafood you represent! When “only the best will do” is the standard, everyone wins! Cordially, – Audrey Schneider
Rebecca and I wanted to tell you personally how much we consistently enjoy the “Salmon Jerky Strips” from Vital Choice. They are easily transported and eaten (on an airplane or during a meeting) for a delicious, healthful snack ... thank you so much for the ingenious ideas that make it easier for the world to eat smarter and stay healthy! We follow your travels from your newsletter (which we thoroughly enjoy reading) and watch for an opportunity to say hello. We remain grateful for all your products….and we remain faithful buyers! – Lowell & Rebecca Whitlock
So many times, I have wanted to write and thank you for your delicious, healthy and safe seafood.
I was a commerical fisherman in Alaska for years and have a deep appreciation for this delicate resource.
I am now a Certified Nutritionist in Idaho and grateful to have Vital Choice as a valuable resource for my clients.
Last weekend, I attended the National Association of Nutrition Professionals, and to the delight of all, your wild sockeye salmon was the entree at lunch. It prompted me to write this long-overdue thank you for your generosity and vision.
– Margi McDaniel
I participated in the Perricone MD Metabolic challenge and ate Vital Choice sockeye salmon. I was impressed with the exceptional packaging, the care taken to send me a fresh and tasty product. The salmon was unlike anything I've eaten before. I was hooked from the very first fillet! Highly recommend the company and product.
– Claire R.
Dear Vital Choice, Thank you for taking care of us by having integrity and making clean food available to us. – Jessica
Recently received my order of halibut and salmon packs. They were still nice and frozen, easy to store and best of all: the taste. We put a halibut and sockeye salmon on the BBQ last night and they were the best I have ever tasted. I couldn't believe I was eating fish. I guess I have not had great fish before but these are keepers for sure. My husband, who doesn’t really like fish, really enjoyed them. We split the salmon and halibut so we could have a little of both. Thanks so much.
– Diane Barnett
At times, we invariably find that we just want a break from cooking and I keep Vital Choice canned seafood on hand for those moments! I have declared that these are the absolute best, best sardines, mackerel, and canned salmon I have ever, ever tasted - hands down. And ... the Ventresca is not the typical canned tuna by any stretch.
I have salmon roe on top of my pasture raised eggs most mornings. Foods to live for! The most nutritious animal food, according to Dr. Price, was fish and shellfish.
– Sandrine Hahn, founder of "Nurturing our Children", a non-profit campaign of the Weston A. Price Foundation (www.nourishingourchildren.org)
Your Sardines are so incredibly superior to anything in the market that even my kids love them. My kids are always asking, “Can we have Sardines for lunch again?" ...I used to buy sardines at Whole Foods, but then tried yours because of the BPA-free cans. Jennifer M., Wethersfield, CT
I just wanted to let you know that my order arrived today (one day early) and all went well! :) I'm so happy Vital Choice ships to Canada...I tried your silver salmon when I was in Iowa and I was just amazed at how fresh it looked and smelled. Everyone loved the taste, too. Thanks again for your help in processing the order. Maria Corsi
I wanted to thank you for the impeccable service and extraordinary sockeye salmon fillets we recently purchased for our wedding dinner. My daughter and catering partners catered the event and they were delighted with the quality and the guests were in awe. We served it with roasted fennel bulbs with a light seasoning of crushed fennel seeds and black pepper and baked it until barely translucent and it was incredible. As sustainability and organics were important elements of our plan for the reception, Vital Choice was a perfect resource. Karen W.
... thanks for your newsletter. It is informative, well-written, well-researched and cutting edge. I have learned so much from reading it over the years. And, actually, it is why I have come to put my trust in all the Vital Choice products. Your "voice" inspires confidence: you tell it like it is, without pushing any agenda. I particularly appreciate the fact that you provide the science behind the recommendations. I not only learn the "why" but I can weigh those recommendations in light of my own particular health needs. Joanna B. [Editor's note: sign up for our free newsletter here]
Good Afternoon! I just received my order in record time again :) Just wanted to say thank you so very much. Terrific salmon , service, quality and care! What can I say other than "YOU FOLKS ARE GREAT" Karen Evans
I never liked fish, but this is the Rolls-Royce of seafood. It's so good ... I can’t believe it! Barbara King, Liberty, NC
Just a quick note to say how much I enjoy your newsletters. The articles are really informative, current and I love the recipes too. Thanks for all the info and keeping us healthy with great products. Cynthia Johnson [Editor's note: sign up for our free newsletter here]
We have been ordering seafood from you and also giving it for gifts ... it's wonderful ... we are soooooo happy to have found you. Susan Maher
I have been purchasing your products for some time now and have never been disappointed with anything. The frozen, organic berries on my last order are magnificent. I let them thaw for a few minutes then add to oatmeal, yogurt or fresh fruit salad; they are divine. Your products have spoiled us, though. What a difference in your fabulous canned salmon and tuna to that in the grocery store. Our garden will be going in soon and we are so looking forward to stuffing our heirloom tomatoes with Vital Choice tuna and salmon. I've made myself hungry so I'll stop now and go have the last can of tuna for lunch. My next order of 12 cans is in transit along with various herbs and spices. You guys are great and my family truly appreciates all the care you take in getting these wonderful items to our home. Judy Crowdis
I am a longstanding and very satisfied Vital Choice customer! Thank you very much for all the dedicated, hard work that goes into a life producing and "sharing" so much of the good fish that still exists in our world, especially the Northwest. We really appreciate your existence. Karen Long can testify to how pleased we have been, and we certainly appreciate how helpful she has been consistently meeting all our needs, even w.r.t. the Macadamia Nut Oil where she kept us abreast of when the recent shortage would be supplied! ...With the very best of continued success in all your efforts for this new year, 2010! Dr. Daryl Ann Doane
Hello to Randy and Everyone at Vital Choice....I just wanted to share an experience of mine with you. For most of my life I have suffered from eczema on my hands every winter. It would vary from red, itchy patches to painful cracks that were almost impossible to get healed. A few years ago I started using Vital Choice Salmon Oil Capsules and the stuff completely disappeared. Well, my financial circumstances took a turn for the worst about 2 years ago and I decided to start taking a less expensive brand of 'Wild Salmon Oil'. Yikes - the eczema came back with a vengence so I thought I would try your salmon oil in a bottle instead of the capsules to save a little money. The oil tasted like fresh fish and made me think of the sea every day when I took my spoonful so it was not unpleasant at all. Best of all...within a couple of months the eczema went completely away and has not returned and I happily keep taking my spoonful of the orange glow every day. This tells me that Vital Choice Salmon Oil is the 'real deal'. I wonder what that other stuff I took was ??? Keep up the great work. Marianna, Pleasant Prairie, WI
I have 4 Newfoundlands. Every day they get some of your Liquid Salmon Oil. I am so pleased with the results. Their coats are soft and sliky, and their skin is healthy. They do a lot of Water Rescue training and I believe that the Salmon Oil has kept them from having coat and skin issues from excessive exposure to water. They have been on your Oils for 4 years now, and will be for life. Ted Meeker
The Manila Clams arrived and even as a die-hard Vital Choice customer who has come to expect the highest quality products from you I was amazed at how fresh they tasted. Even as someone from New England with family in several coastal communities, even as someone who has been to the Clam Box in Ipswich, even as someone who gathered Mussels by hand at Plum Island, even as someone who used to keep clams as pets for a whole week just to purify them before eating them, I found these to be among the best clams I've tasted. Neil McLaughlin
I can only give you a 10/10 on everything. Your delivery is accurate and in excellent shape. Your products are the top of the line in all areas. Your newsletter is informative, honest & enjoyable. I am writing to just tell you thank you. Thank you for quality everything from online ordering, user friendly website, security in ordering, accuracy, and all of the above complements. You are the best! Deb Mason
AMAZING SEAFOOD!! My first order was the 24 pack of the Sockeye Salmon. My oh my, what the world is missing. I am not a lover of Salmon, but your Salmon has changed me. I am already placing my second order of goodies and have recommended your site to many already. Thank you for all you do to provide the world with the choicest seafood and your efforts in environmental responsibility. M. Jackson
I wanted to tell you that everything I've ever ordered from Vital Choice, the salmon, prawns, and sausage, has been the most delicious I've ever had. I was apprehensive about ordering at first because, well to be perfectly frank, we're poor. My husband is active duty Army, so we had to save and scrounge to place an order but I'm happy to say it was worth every cent. Not only is it the healthiest fish we can possibly feed our children but it's so darn good too. I have to admit though I always feel guilty when making a purchase but today when I was reading one of your newsletters my husband asked me, "Why is a food company writing about health?". He didn't ask to be patronizing, to him it was surprising because we'd only ever heard of one other food company... that distributes such informative articles on health. Then it occured to me that the folks at Vital Choice actually care about the health of their customers. So not only are your products delicious, they're healthy, and to top it all off you care about your customers! Well my guilt is gone! Though we might have to sacrifice and won't be able to purchase your products as often as we'd like to I want you to know that you have found a forever customer! Tamara Bannister
My husband, our two little boys (3.5 years and 16 months) and I love your salmon. Everyone who tastes it when they visit raves about the taste. And I feel good about preparing it and patronizing your business because of your strict standards. Please keep up the good work, Beth Ann Seeman
I just want to let you know that I recently went to Alaska! It was a trip of a life time. I ate salmon at several different restaurants there and I am being very honest when I tell you that yours is still the best! I told everyone that would listen to me about Vital Choice and my best friend whom I have tried to sample salmon is finally a convert. She tried the salmon in Alaska but now has enjoyed the Vital Choice salmon and she likes it better than what she had there too. Thank-you so much. Linda McPherson
Hi Randy – I wanted to tell you how impressed we are with the quality of the wild salmon filets you sent us (in the sampler pack). We frequently purchase wild salmon at our local grocery store and had become accustomed to getting a dried out and flavorless product. What a pleasant surprise to find how moist and delicious your filets are! Thank you for providing a source for high quality wild salmon – we couldn’t be more pleased. Joy Rupe
I just wanted to let you know that all of my orders have arrived on time, in good shape, healthy, and delicious. Thanks for all you do. Ann & Mike Moran
We try to never be without your delicious canned salmon in the pantry. It's a staple for us. Yours is the very best, too! Kathy Berthiaume
Just received my first order from Vital Choice.com. It arrived frozen solid all the way to Georgia, USA. I could not wait to taste it so promptly cooked a portion. I have never tasted Salmon so delicious. So needless to say Vital Choice has earned my business from now on. Eleanor Vaughn
I have been so happy with the Vital Choice products! I plan on including the Smoked Salmon Sampler in my next order.... Just so you know, I ordered the smoked sablefish in my last order and my children (4 and 6 yrs old) LOVE it. Thanks again! Andrea Koepke
Hello~ I bought some of your canned sockeye at Parker seminars and you have me "hooked"! --pun intended. Thanks for providing my family and I with a healthy seafood option I can feel good about! My 18-month old eats the salmon like it's going out of style! Erin Tullius
I placed my order the other day, got it yesterday in perfect condition, and tried some today. Oh my G-D it's the best sablefish I've ever eaten. I had the lox for breakfast awesome and just had a piece of the sableflsh. When I lived in NY, I used to buy fresh fish at the market at Grand Central Terminal it was very very expensive for sable, so I only bought it on rare occasions. This beats the expensive fish I used to get there.... it was wonderful. I have to try the salmon next, and I'm sure it will live up to my expectations. You definitely have a new customer. Thanks for your wonderful fish. Ilona Frankel, Jamestown, NC
I first learned about Vital Choice @ the Health & Nutrition conference in Phoenix in May 2008. I met Randy & enjoyed sampling the various seafood items. I placed a phone order shortly thereafter & have thoroughly enjoyed the quality & flavor of your seafood ever since. I also enjoy your newsletter which I receive regularly. Now I've established an online account with this order & look forward to a lot more tasty, healthy seafood. Keep up the good work! Paul Snyder, MD, Mayo Clinic Arizona
Hi Randy - The mackerel is delicious ... Yesterday, it arrived near lunchtime, so I feasted on it directly from the can, along with whole wheat bread, combining mackerel and that delicious extra virgin olive oil [it comes in]. But half-way through, I was fully “fed-up” - no empty calories in that can! Congrats on another great Vital Choice product. Ted Miller (www.wildegeestfoundation.org)
We just can’t say enough about the quality of the fish sold by Vital Choice. We have ordered the Halibut and the Salmon several times now along with the canned Wild Red Alaskan Sockeye Salmon. The quality and freshness is exactly the same with each order. We were always hesitant about buying fish at the local grocery store because we could never depend on the purity or freshness. With Vital Choice we no longer have to worry about that. The fish from Vital Choice is always fresh and never ever fishy. Vital Choice does strive to keep its professed high standards for purity and it shows. They remind us of the old cliché, “You Get What You Pay For”. Thanks Vital Choice for adding to our quality of life through your quality product line. And a special thanks to Dr. Mercola’s website for his independent testing of and recommendation of Vital Choice, without which we may have missed out on such a wonderful product. Don and Kim Peck
Randy, I'm looking forward to seeing (and tasting) that you're not letting higher costs for top grade Chinook get in the way of doing what you do best: providing customers the finest salmon on planet. If costs go up because top tier salmon catch is down you will continue to provide your customers an opportunity to experience excellence. I put money where my mouth is this morning, ordered a 24 pack of Sockeye and 12 pack of Chinook fillets. Couldn't do it without you. Nobody does it better, from ocean to front door (superb customer service between). Hope business never gets so bad you're forced to put survival before excellence. The fish, fisherman, and those of us at the end of the food chain would miss you. Thanks for being there. Richard Fuller
Dear Friends, At last we are back from the Weston A Price 2008 conference feeling a little like drug addicts must feel upon withdrawal from a very high experience. We realized we would somehow have to get back to cooking and do it as well as we experienced at the conference. Wonderfully waiting for us was our shipment Vital Choice Seafood. We started with a package of hot smoked Wild Alaskan King Salmon, and instantaneously our withdrawal symptoms went away. We met you in a very different way this year after our son and daughter-in-law gave us a gift of your wonderful seafood for our 45th wedding anniversary and meal after meal we enjoyed the wonderful taste and quality. We thank your family for creating such a wonderful company and bringing us exceptionally wonderful foods. Thanks for being a part of our lives. Eva Jo Wu
I enjoyed your article this month re protein for breakfast. After discovering your sockeye salmon years ago, I also discovered that my favorite breakfast is salmon and cantaloupe. The flavors and combination of hot and cold is delightful. Grilling an extra filet the night before just means heating the leftover portion the following morning. It keeps it simple.

As a long time subscriber I wish to compliment you on your wonderful newsletter. You are doing a great job and a great service to those who read and pay attention. After reading your most recent newsletter on "cholesterol", I would like to mention a recent book, "GOOD CALORIES, BAD CALORIES" by Gary Taubes which explains in detail exactly what was in this recent newsletter. Keep up the good work! Dr. Ronald Leavitt [Editor's note: The Vital Choices Newsletter article to which Dr. Leavitt refers may be reviewed here.]
In your newsletter you continue to provide outstanding insights into important medical topics - and the recent Statin Drug Beaten by Alternative Cholesterol Treatment is an excellent example of factual coverage. Whoever wrote that deserves great kudos for reporting the truths that are all too often overlooked in conventional medical practice. I purchase your products and recommend them to everyone I know - please keep up your really excellent educational work!
Michael Clague M.D. [Editor's note: The Vital Choices newsletter article to which Dr. Clague refers may be reviewed here.]
We don't just enjoy your products; we rely on them. Our son has short gut and autism. He doesn't tolerate fish/cod liver oil, but he does well on your salmon. Thank you! Donna Jo K.
Your products are great and I have referred them to all of my friends .... They are happy to eat at my place whenever salmon is on the menu. I cook it in a small convection oven in a ceramic bowl with coconut oil that makes it delectable every time.... I make a quick organic green salad while its cooking and can have a wonderfully healthy dinner in 10 min or less. Jake Hamilton
I must say, this salmon is the best I've tasted canned. Hard to believe it is just salmon and salt. I am so glad I found your company. Donna
Hi Randy, ... I LOVE the sablefish, had never tried it before, must have more....Thank you for all you are doing.... Will be ordering soon. Dr. Kathleen Perry, D.C.
I keep coming back because you have wonderful products! I enjoy your newsletter, and love the way you include research. I love the way I can come home from work, stick a fillet in some cool water and have it thawed in about the time it takes me to change my clothes, steam my vegetables and fire up my George Forman grill. Cheryl Weir
I just wanted to give you some long over due feed back. We love your wild salmon fillets and portions, wild salmon burgers, wild salmon fish oil, and wild blueberries. It is so hard to find wild salmon, in the grocery stores, that do not come from China or Asia. I believe Vital Choice provides my family with the freshest, most wholesome, wild salmon and wild salmon products available. The last wild salmon I bought at the grocery store had a strong, fishy taste. The salmon we buy from Vital Choice has a mild, delicate salmon flavor. After the pet food and lead paint baby toys issues from China, we are no longer buying any products from Asia...So, Vital Choice is our only source now for wild salmon and seafood products. Thanks for helping to keep my family healthy. Emily Chase
Thank you all for your business integrity and impeccable service. I truly enjoy everything about Vital Choice. --A very loyal customer. Evodney Speed
Great Products, Great Service and a Great Website! It doesn't get any better than that. Congratulations! H. Holcomb
I just wanted to say thank you so much for sharing your fish with everybody. Ever since I started eating your sockeye salmon I have been running around with so much energy. I eat the canned salmon everyday and I swear it is my "secret weapon" and keeps me in shape. You could have just kept all of the fish to you and your family but you chose to share it so that other people can enjoy good health. You are awesome. Thank you so much. Gisella C.
I ordered the Welcome Pack. I was VERY pleased with everything in the shipment. I could eat the salmon every day ... It is a good feeling to know this is a product made in the USA, I am so sick of everything coming from China. Thank you for such a fantastic , healthy product. Joy Wood
Today, I tried your canned tuna for the first time. It is FABULOUS!! What a difference from the store bought variety. Of course, I expected that after my experiences with your various other products... Ingrid Dohler
WE LOVE YOUR PRODUCTS The only trouble is that you are so popular now that you run out of some of our favorites! Your customer service is great too. Keep up the good work and don’t sell out to Proctor and Gamble or someone like that. Thank you Kay Polk
I have just placed my second order and wanted to thank you for your wonderful products.I was referred by Mercola.com and your products are everything and more than they said. Thank you for the products--they are very much appreciated!!!! Kathleene Chiasson
I love all your fish and order the canned fish also... I order all my salmon from you and it is just the best. I know that when you open a pkg. of salmon, if it smells fishy, it isn't fresh. I have never opened any of your salmon filets where they have smelled fishy. Thanks so much for healthy products Joyce Burks
I received your Wild Alaskan Salmon today and cooked it this evening for dinner. My two sons ages 5 & 7 literally begged me to make more of it after they cleaned their plates. They have never asked for more fish before. The texture was so different than the seafood available in the grocery store - firm like steak or swordfish - and so delicious. This was the first time I have ordered food online like this. We will be ordering more! Thank you for a great product! Katie N.
I just want you to know that I would not use anything else. The web site is easy to use. Thanks for all the quality products you sell. Bonnie Seeger
My husband and I were trying to cut back financially where we could so we had put off buying vital choice products for awhile. We opted to buy individually wrapped frozen Chilean salmon fillets from our local Sam's club. It is the farmed salmon, but we thought we'd try it to save money in these trying economic times. All we can say is "Yuch!" We will be budgeting in Vital Choice salmon or eat none at all! We could not believe the difference in smell, texture and most importantly taste! Fresh from Alaska, free of any fishy odor, vibrant in color, firm texture, wonderful flavor, Vital Choice is the ONLY choice! Judy S.
Other than freshly caught fish eaten within hours, you have the best fish I've ever tasted! I appreciate this as I live several hours from the ocean and I stopped buying fish because it is always poor quality, and in many cases starting to rot. Actually its even hard to find this quality by the fishing ports too. Thank you for your service. Marisa Monti
Dear Randy and Everyone at Vital Choice, As a loyal customer for some time, I have tried many of your products and found them all to be first class. Today I wanted to compliment you on the Spot Prawns. I have NEVER tasted shrimp like these - they taste like little lobsters.....excellent. Thanks again for another great offering!
Marianna Riker
I absolutely LOVE the high quality of products from Vital Choice. You have spoiled me---it is hard for me to order fish at restaurants now as I know the quality will not be equal to what I get from you. Jeanne Locante
Dear Randy, I wanted to send this letter of appreciation for sending me such fresh salmon. I recently bought a similar size at my local grocery store and it smelled so fishy. I couldn’t get a fishy smell from yours no matter how hard or where I sniffed! I was pleased to offer it for dinner as only the best salmon in the world. Soon I will order your tuna and I probably won’t ever buy anywhere else! I also ordered the dark chocolates with and without nuts. They are superb. Only one or two bites satisfies me so I don’t have to eat any more calories and yet get the boost I need. Thank you for your enlightening newsletters. I’m getting healthier every day. T.T., Irvine, CA
We are so delighted by the freshness of your wild seafood. It is such a pleasure to cook seafood at home. No more stinky packaging, no more ripe taste. Your seafood is the best. J. German
We tried the Yukon King salmon “candy” and it is stunningly delicious. I usually steer clear of heavily smoked salmon preferring the lighter touch of freshly cooked salmon, but I’m sold—will be ordering along with my salmon gelcaps. Thanks!
Diane Morgan, Cookbook Author
Dear Randy: Just served some of the reefnet pink salmon fillets this evening and it is the most delicious salmon I ever tasted. I broiled them and put lemon butter and salt and pepper. I didn’t have the opportunity to ever purchase them in 2005... Really enjoy your weekly healthy email. Keep up the good work. Germaine Krause
CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS I want to personally thank your company for your support of the California Naturopathic Doctor's Association. I just received your beautiful and generous gift basket in the mail, and I was so touched, as well as impresssed by the quality and presentation of the products. Thank you so much for your committment to excellence, and for your support of natural medicine. Connie Hernandez, N.D.
Oh my goodness! I just received my first order from Vital Choice. I opened a can of my newly-acquired red salmon and fixed the most delicious Salad Nicoise. The salmon was a vibrant red color and it tasted so clean. Thanks Vital Choice - you've gained another satisfied customer who will reorder again and again. Darlene Brown, Houston, TX
Just wanted to say that I ordered a minimum order of Vital Choice canned salmon to see for myself before I ordered a large order. I congratulate you. It is truly delicious, and I plan to order more for myself and to ship a gift to a friend. E. Felcher
Just a note to let you know I have been a customer for many years and you have spoiled me. I do not buy any other fish but yours. The packaging, delivery, and above all the quality is always excellent. Thank you. Kelly Pirtle
I have to tell you that I am thrilled with your service and product selection. My 15-year-old son, the junk food king, loves your salmon and actually requests it on a weekly basis! The cuts and packaging are convenient, and the teriyaki salmon recipe I found on your website is absolutely delicious! You've got a customer for life! Kim Grogan
I just received the sampler pack of salmon, halibut etc. My husband and I grilled a piece of the salmon and the halibut. I rarely eat fish because I find it too "fishy". I was amazed at the taste of your fish. It was delicious! I have never eaten a whole serving of fish at one time, but I did tonight. Thanks so much for providing this wonderful fish. Fish will be on the weekly menu from now on. Patty Causey
I love your products and will probably be ordering the salmon and sardines as long as possible. Your salmon is the only salmon I will eat.... I just placed an order today and I am grateful to always get a live person who is courteous, happy, and sounds like they believe in your product. Carolyn N., Schaumburg IL
Dear Vital Choice, I just had to drop you a short note. A couple of days ago I received my order of the canned Ventresca Tuna. Let me preface my comment by saying that I am a big fish eater: tuna(many types), salmon, black cod, mackeral, etc. I also eat mucho sushi, sashimi. I have had two cans of the Ventresca Tuna. All I can say is FANTASTIC!! The flavor, tenderness, and texture are SUPERB!! I will be ordering more very soon. You have very good products, great service, and expeditious delivery. Thanks, & keep up the good work. L. Coleman, Newport CA
Your service is excellent. Love the delicate taste of your salmon. Your blueberries are the best I've tasted since I picked my own from bushes in the woods. Thanks. Jean Carter
Poached Silver Salmon for breakfast! MYgawd, I'm in heaven. This is the best salmon I've ever had the pleasure to enjoy at home (the only other that was almost as good was at a gourmet restaurant). Thank you, thank you, thank you. Shirley Stroup
I got the boneless, skinless sockeye and halibut and both are fabulous....extremely tender and very flavorful. Everything was packaged very well and there was plenty of ice still in the package after it arrived in perfect shape. I cannot imagine any fish being better than this!! Sher Silver
I began taking your [sockeye salmon oil] capsules in February 2006 as a preventative - with the hope that they would offer me some measure of cardiovascular protection in the long term. I recently went in for a bi-annual physical and my doctor noted that my LDL cholesterol (which had previously been 156) was now 121! My exercise level, body weight, blood pressure and such was all the same as it had been two years prior. My doctor asked if I had been doing anything different, since the only time he has seen such as significant change in LDL levels was in patients undergoing cholesterol treatment with medication. I told him I'd been taking your fish oil capsules daily for the past four months and his response was "Well, by all means, keep taking them!" Thank you for supplying such an excellent product and at a reasonable price. You will continue to have my business. D. Swanson, Burnsville, MN
Hi Randy, Thank you, thank you, and thank you Dr. Weil. We love the sausage. We shared it with a neighbor who has been really sick with Crohns (he says he hates fish) and he loves it. I have been going to the farms three times a week and getting amazing veggies and having them with our sausage. it is Heaven! Nancy Jacobs, New Paltz, NY
Our salmon and burgers arrived yesterday several hours early. Perfect condition, beautiful, fresh, and we ate two servings last night. My husband raved. (I used your marinade!) Thank you so much! Sallie Catalano
Randy, I am a very loyal and consistent customer. I decided to try the salmon burgers and the country sausage. Oh God, all I can say is thank you. The burgers are perfection and the sausage removes all guilt. I know I am doing my body good. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. Joanne Petrilli
I just tried for the first time your new salmon breakfast sausage (Country style), they are wonderful! They were an excellent addition to the whole wheat waffles and blueberries drizzled with real maple syrup! I never thought a salmon sausage would be this good. Thanks!! I will reorder soon... Dr. Bruce Felgenhauer
I sent the salmon sampler to my daughter and son-in-law. They cooked some of the salmon with the salmon marinade tonight and loved it so much they invited me up to dinner Friday night so they could share how wonderful it is with me... Thanks for being there!!! Carolyn Barbe
It is a pleasure to do business with your wonderful company. We have loved everything we have ordered from you so far and have now sent a Father's Day gift to share the delight. Your packaging and shipping is expert and efficient. And I love the newsletters with the tasty recipes! We look forward to trying more of the fabulous foods you have to offer. Thanks again. Keep up the great work!!! Renee S., Boca Raton, FL
Wow! ... Want to let you know that the products I have tried so far have been wonderful. I can’t wait to tell the M.D. that suggested this... the quality, taste, packaging, ease of preparation are just spectacular. I plan on telling my friends about vitalchoice....the health benefits are enormous--THANK-YOU Linda McPherson, RN
Well I'm happy to tell you that I've just placed my sixth order with Vital Choice and I've been extremely impressed with the quality and consistency of your fish so far. The "Sockeye salmon" portions and "salmon candy" are my favorites. I will NEVER purchase fish from the grocery store again! Chris Dunham, San Clemente, CA
I am delighted not only with your products, but also with the way in which they are wrapped for shipping. It is always a pleasure to receive your order. Thanks. Miriam Berkovic, PHD
I could never get my husband to eat salmon. He had tried it as a child and never liked it. After I received my first order of salmon I cooked it with only a little olive oil and spices. I had to bribe him into trying it but ever since he did he asks me to cook it often. It is the best salmon I have ever tasted. Teresa Ramsey, Port St Lucie, FL
You guys are the best...excellent customer service, delicious berries and fish! I've recommended your site to several of my fiends and colleagues, so I hope that business is booming! :) Thanks again! Karen Margulies
Dear Vital Choice I received my shipment of halibut and salmon around 1:30 yesterday. The portions looked so appetizing that my wife and I decided we had to have the Halibut for dinner. Needless to say, it was wonderful. We had salmon tonight and it, also, was wonderful. We are both glad that we have found a great supplier of our favorite foods. Jeanne and Ron Johnson
Thanks for your wonderful products and all the great newsletters--we appreciate all you do. Kay Polk Kay Polk
Thanks for your great products which I prefer over my store in Seattle here. They are so convenient to use and I never have spoilage! Also I love the newsletter and always save them and refer my friends to them! Victoria Jahn, Seattle, WA
I was really skeptical about ordering your fish but took a chance since [Drs] Perricone and Northrup endorse you. I have been exceptionally pleased and can't believe the quality and value you are able to provide us beefeaters down on the prairie here in Texas! Good for you and thanks! Kimberly Koelzer
We recently tried the Dr. Perricone sample package and not only are we delighted with the quality of the fish, but I finally got my husband to eat salmon, fresh and smoked and…he loved them both! It is the first time he has been willing to try salmon as his previous experiences with it have been less than appealing. It is very satisfying to do business with a company that doesn’t exaggerate the quality of its products: yours are excellent… and we just placed our second order. Thank You. Trudy Giese, Wildomar, CA
My first order of salmon and halibut was wonderful – the best fish I’ve ever tasted. I just ordered lots more, and will continue to do so as long as your quality remains superior. Thanks for being there. Patti Arthur, Las Vegas, NV
Congrats on your wonderful newsletter. It's extremely informative with absolutely fabulous recipes to boot! Please keep up the good work! Debbie Francis
We have been enjoying our first shipment of seafood and berries and I have just placed a second order. I really must mention the Smoked Sablefish. We were also especially fond of the white salmon. We'd never heard of it before. We will definitely be ordering more. Also, all of your seafood tastes and smells as if we just pulled it, wriggling out of the water with no hint of fishy odors, and the pieces are quickly thawed in their water-tight wrappers in cold water. I can serve them with complete confidence, knowing that I am having the absolute freshest products. Thank you!!!! Claire Rosenberg
Ohmigosh, your sardines truly ARE the best! And we've been spoiled by eating them! After eating sardines for years, and purchasing the best we could find, we tried Vital Choice Portuguese sardines as soon as you offered them. We ran out of them last week and I'd not yet had a chance to order more, so yesterday we bought a can of those we'd used before switching to Vital Choice. The Vital Choice Portuguese sardines are so superior to all the brands we'd purchased before that we were actually UNABLE to force ourselves to eat our previous choice when we tried to yesterday, regardless of how much we tried to "doctor them up". You've spoiled us, once again, with another wonderful, flavorful, quality product! (Yes, I ordered more Vital Choice sardines yesterday, along with tuna, halibut and those luscious chocolate bars!) Barbara Brewer
I am very impressed with the quality and consistancy of your fish. The Sockeye fillets and White King Salmon are incredible and the Nova lox are a family favorite. I've never had "Salmon candy" before but I will continue to order it with every order that I place. It is AMAZING !! Chris Dunham
I greatly appreciate my peace of mind received in knowing my purchases from you are truly a WIN-WIN for all parties involved--me, you, and our planet. Thank you all so much for your dedication to quality products as well as to your customer support. You have my unending gratitude always and in all ways. Stephanie Rohde
Best salmon, halibut, frozen berries, and dark chocolate I have ever had...I couldn't be happier with the products and service. I am so thankful I found Vital Choice's address in one of Dr. Weil's books. Anonymous email
I just wanted to say thank you. Your Salmon & berries were my Christmas presents to family & friends who live all over the states and what a BIG hit it was. Not only did everone get it in perfect condition a few days before Christmas, I was amazed at how much it was appreciated by everyone. By far the smartest Christmas choice I have ever made and the fact that it is Wild Alaskan Salmon from Vital choice made it elegant. You made it very easy on me this year, I'll be ordering for myself again soon. Also, My two little Yorkies love the Salmon treats for dogs so much that I was able to potty train the little one by offering him a little piece of one everytime he went outside. He likes them that much. Thanks :) Keep up the good work. Debby Behmer, Davie, FL
Vital Choice is the only place I will order salmon or fruit from -- the products are amazing and as a grandmother I need all the help I can get (smile)! With each bite I feel my body responding with joy at the nutrient rich food! Thank you for continuing to offer such fine products. Nancy Gillespie
Articles of this quality and depth are one of the primary reasons I like to order from you guys. Of course, it helps immensely that the fish is of such high quality as well, but the extra helpings of info are terrific and MUCH more than I ever would have expected from "a couple of guys selling fish on the Internet". Thanks for all that you continue to do! Dave Diller
Excellent products! Your Wild Red Traditional canned salmon with skin and bones is simply the best canned salmon available! Even a richer red than other brands. I drink the remaining oil/broth after eating the salmon. Just opened a can of your sardines the other day.There they were, "swimming" in organic extra virgin olive oil. A "truly" delicious delicacy! My new favorite sardines! I then soak up the olive oil with whole grain bread. Now to open a can of your pure Pacific Albacore! Perhaps order some fresh fish also. I just recommended your website to a brother and friend the other day. Keep up the good work! Bob Beck, Rockaway, N.J..
Any time I have ever used one of your products, spoken with a rep from your company or (as of today) visited your website, I've been impressed. Keep up the great work, and thank you! Melissa
Awesome products and customer service. I love this company. Bizrate Comment
Dear Randy, It is with a huge smile that I write to you today. When I married my husband and he used to try to get me to eat salmon I told him I wouldn't eat it for love or money... I didn't however mention health. To make a long story short, my husband was going to have a total hip replacement and I was afraid I wouldn't be able to care for him as my knees were also needing surgery. I read Dr. Perricone's book and thought I needed to force myself to learn to like eating salmon. I tried but still I couldn't get it down... as a last resort I thought to order it from you. Now I eat it every day and love it. I am down five sizes and my knees are so improved I'm not even going to schedule the surgery. My husband said after I finished the first case of salmon that it looked as if I had eye lid surgery. He 's not the type to comment on eye lids. I was shocked. This past month I've been faithfully using the capsules as well as eating the salmon and again I see more improvements. I cannot thank you enough for making such fine products available. I really was not a fish person. I look forward to it now... I even take it with us on vacation. Your no salt added salmon is my ultimate favorite.... My neighbors who are in their late twenties were shocked to know I'll be 49 next month. What a good feeling that is. Thanks again.... a faithful and grateful customer. D. Thornburg
Hello! Today we are placing our second order for your salmon burgers. We have a 3 year old who has been raised on organic food, and doesn't take very well when given new food choices. After cooking the salmon burger and cutting it into the shape of a "pinwheel," he ate almost 3/4 of it in less than 10 minutes (quite a lot of food for him in so little time)! I also have a 9 month old who also loves them, along with my husband and I. Thank you for offering such great salmon. It is truly delicious! M. Kowalski
Delicious products which exceeded my expectations. I definitely will order more variety as the items I did order are of the highest quality. Anonymous
We have frequently ordered from you ( king salmon and halibut) and have always been very pleased, both with the product and the service. I also appreciate the newsletter and the recipes. We thank you….our cardiologist thanks you (we’ll be sending him some for Xmas)…and our children and grandchildren thank you !!! We also buy your salmon oil capsules. Noni Stearns
I just LOVE your seafood! I'm an absolute freak for the Sablefish!!! Where do you get this stuff? Of course, I love the salmon and now I've tried your canned tuna and am amazed!!! I've NEVER been able to eat tuna without it being slathered in mayo..but with your's it's straight from the can!! Love the frozen fruit as well and now I guess I just have to try everything else that you sell, darn it!!! You're just too good (not that there's anything wrong with that!). Thank you for superior quality and service! Alexandra Adams
We love your fish and will gladly pay a higher price for fish that is pure and not contaminated. As man continues to pollute and destroy the habitat for the fish and animals, it is a pleasure to find a company like yours that cares and provides us with great fish. Thank you...we will buy lots more.
Jean and Jim Myers
Just wanted to let you all know what wonderful products you have!! Your canned salmon is convenient and delicious. Often times, my husband and children prefer beef or chicken for dinner--when I am really in the mood for seafood, I just open a can of salmon and mix it with romaine lettuce and olive oil. It is delicious!! I just placed an order for more salmon and frozen berries. I eat a lot of blueberries and just recently learned that the ones I have been purchasing are probably laden with pesticides. I am very excited to try yours. Keep up the great job of providing products that not only taste good but are so good for us. I especially liked not having to pay shipping charges. Kathleene Swanberg, Harlingen, TX
This is another order from the Miller family.....Great Taste! Great Products! Frank Miller, Durham, N.C.
"I love your salmon..both frozen and smoked. I had eaten all my salmon and just for comparison I bought frozen Wild Alaskan Salmon in the grocery store. A BIG mistake and one I won't make again. It was tough and smelled and tasted fishy. I will forever buy your salmon. Thank you for having a product that lives up to its touting and is delicious. P.S. I can't wait for my order to get here." J. Ruggirello
Vital choice Folks, Great seafood. Great service every time. I trust your Website. Thanks. Marilynn Wadden
Just a quick note to praise your Salmon Fish Oil capsules. I started taking them about 4 months ago simply as a general health improving supplement. About a month ago I read in one of your online bulletins about a woman whose LDLs had been significantly reduced by these supplements. I was due for a blood test and was very interested to see what my results would be (I wanted to lower my LDLs to below 100). I was thrilled when my results came in: My LDLs went from 107 to 65! My HDLs from 75 to 115! And my triglycerides were 75. From a cholesterol point of view I couldn't be better!
If your sales of Salmon oil supplements increases, you can thank me - I've been telling everyone I know about my good results and I know some are planning to try it.
Judy Schachter
"I had never eaten Salmon in my life, before ordering from Vital Choice. Needless to say, my first taste of salmon was incredible. I have ordered salmon from a couple restaurants since, and let me tell you...there is no comparison. I eat the 6 oz. wild sockeye portions for dinner three times a week. I love the skinless/boneless canned salmon ...and the canned albacore as well. Great for taking with me on business travel! Every morning for breakfast I have a huge bowl of your organic strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries. And I have to say the most fulfilling part is that I turned my dad, a cancer survivor, on to your products. It is so nice to see him eating healthy - because of me and thanks to you!" R. Borris MD, Baltimore MD
"Just to let know your wild sockeye portions are delicious. Our son stopped in for a quick visit today so I served him some salmon and salad and he said it was the best salmon he ever ate. I am so glad we discovered your products." Louise F., Pennsburg, PA
"...as for Vital Choice Seafood, these folks have without a doubt the best canned and frozen Alaska seafood I've ever tasted. Plus they use only small tuna (for the lower mercury count) and their processing is the most impeccable I've seen..."

"I just finished my first order from Vital Choice Seafood - Dr. Perricone's 14 Day sampler. I have always enjoyed salmon, but I feel I never truly knew how delicious it could be till I tasted your wild sockeye salmon. It is FABULOUS! I have raved to all my friends about your product & your website. You have a faithful customer in me. Thank you very much." G. Magel, CT
"THE BEST SURPRISE OF ALL!
I just got my sockeye salmon and cooked some last night. It was DELICIOUS, mouth watering...I'll be a customer for life. But the BEST PART of all was that my entire house didn't stink after cooking it! That disgusting fishy smell is the reason I typically save my fish dinners for when I eat out. This was a wonderful surprise, so thank you!"
Tracey in California
"I can't thank you enough for introducing me to the most delicious food I have ever experienced! Vital Choice is a life altering discovery for me. I'm constantly traveling to meets and appearances and maintaining a healthy diet is almost impossible. The ability to carry meal size cans of the healthiest, most pristine nutrient packed salmon and have it taste like gourmet cuisine is beyond magnificent. Your salmon tastes more like an indulgence than a health food! After eating your Wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon for only five days my energy levels are way up and my skin is crystal clear...my teammates even commented on how radiant it looked. I also miraculously lost 3 pounds!...Thank you again so very much." Kara Bohigian, e-mail [Editor's note: Ms. Bohigian has been the 148 lb class world record holder in several women's powerlifting events.]
"Thanks so much for your newsletter. I received the first one today, and while I don't always appreciate some of the 'stuff' that I receive in my e-mail box, this one was very welcome! I will continue to be an avid reader and to enjoy the wonderful salmon and blueberries which I ordered recently and which are my introduction to Vital Choices."
Char S., Wyoming, MI
"Your seafood is fabulous. Moist, tender and so fresh. Having lived on the East Coast and then moved inland to Indianapolis, it was hard to find fresh fish. Even the best seafood restaurant here doesn't compare with your offerings. I am absolutely hooked on the Sablefish. If you could provide more recipes, that would be wonderful. It is truly the best seafood I've ever tasted and my family loves it too. I recommend it to everyone who likes fish! Thank you for your terrific company and great service." Marti Temple, Indianapolis, IN
"... I just wanted you to know that I received the salmon yesterday and last night had the best salmon of my entire life. Please pass on my words of thanks to your customer service department for getting out the shipment promptly and sending it through FED EX to make sure it was still frozen when I got it. I started on the Perricone Promise program at the beginning of the month. I’ve not followed it exactly, but I am paying attention to natural foods and berries. What is amazing to me is how great I feel inside. The salmon is like eating pure energy and my body smiles all over. I will never will eat farm salmon again and expect some gift orders from me for my family as well. Not to mention my cat is now totally spoiled. Forget the crunchies, forget the farm salmon . . . she is now a vital choice cat! Just wanted to share the positive experience!" Bonnie Nelson, Maui, HI
"Just wanted to tell you (although I know you already know!!!!!) that those are the BEST sardines I have ever eaten. They are well worth the extra money. Of course, why would I think the sardines would be any different from all the other tasty and high quality fish you offer." Jean Singer, Eustis, FL
"You guys are number one with customer satisfaction, care, & service... I have nothing but good things to say about your company. I am so sold on you guys (now more than ever), that I am like a walking billboard for your company."
Charlotte B., Dayton, OH
"All I can say is WOW! I have never been a fan of salmon, until I tried some of yours. I am 100% completely satisfied!! The filets are absolutely delicious! I have eaten it every day since it arrived. Yesterday the canned salmon arrived and I just had it for lunch. I was skeptical, but opened it, smelled it, then tasted it. What a delicious treat! I ate it straight out of the can with some crackers! Thank you, thank you, thank you for providing such a delicious product. I will tell everyone I know to try your fish! I am so very happy!"
Barbara Staves, Dallas, TX
"Dear Randy and Everyone at Vital Choice: Just recently tried the flash frozen salmon after being a loyal customer of the canned salmon, canned tuna, lox, smoked salmon and blueberries. What a treat!!! I have never had salmon so delicious. We can't get anything like your salmon in any store in our area. It's great to know that something this great tasting is also good for you. Thanks again for bringing it to us in a environmentally responsible manner as that matters to me. I love everything about your company." Marianna Riker, Kenosha, WI
"Just wanted to let you know that I received my salmon order and it was indeed the best salmon I have ever tasted. Thanks again and Happy Holidays." Ellen P., Toms River, NJ
"I ate my entire package of lox leaning over the counter while I was fixing lunch. My husband never knew what he missed. So, I am ordering this for him for Christmas. I have never eaten such incredibly good lox."
Anne R., Okatie, SC
"...I've ordered from your company before and must say that it's the best salmon that I've had. I usually buy the Wild Caught Copper River Salmon from Wholefoods Market during the peak season (end of May - July) and love that, however, Vital Choice is even better. Looking forward to placing another order in 2005. Thanks for checking on the order and I apologize for my confusion. Have a happy holiday!" Angie L., Cambria Heights, NY
"Hi Randy, My family really enjoys the seafood we get from you. It is the highest quality salmon I have ever had, short of one trip to Alaska where I caught it myself. The 5oz random cuts on the Sockeye we tried for the first time, and it was a great value. The smoked salmon has been wonderful as well. You're website is in my newsletter every quarter. Keep up the great job..."
Dr. Bob Erickson Medical Director The Preventive Medicine Center of Gainesville, Inc.
Robert A. Erickson, M.D., Gainesville, FL
"Just to let you know I've just sent my second order in because having tried the frozen Salmon and Black Cod [Sablefish], it's the best seafood we can possibly get in the Midwest! My husband is very critical of seafood and said this was the best seafood we had ever fixed at home. I'm from the East Coast and am used to fresh fish. It's been a struggle not to have that in the Midwest. Now I can. Fantastic."
M. Temple, Mooresville, IN
"Received our first order. Wow! I can't stop eating the Traditional Wild Red canned salmon! I put it on top of kasha for lunch the first day and it was remarkably good! I'm "sold" and will order it regularly. The thing that so struck me about the burgers and filets is how much firmer they are than store bought - all meat, no water. Your products are outstanding! I'm an advocate for Vital Choice now and will send Gift Certificates to others for Christmas!" B. Brewer, Milton, DE
"Hi Randy - Just want you to know that I have been taking the Vital Choice sockeye salmon oil supplements for several months now - my skin has never been better, and my hair is shiny and curling like it was when I was a small kid! I can only imagine the wonderful benefits to my heart! I am sending the supplements to nearly everyone on my Christmas list. What better gift than good health! Hooked for life -- and happy holidays!" Laine Welch, Kodiak, AK
"Hello....I just received my first order of your Alaskan Salmon and I just had to write and tell you how pleased I am with your product. I have NEVER cooked a piece of salmon that didn't leave a strong odor of fish throughout my house. What a joy and a pleasure it was to open the pouch and know immediately the quality of salmon you offer. I am looking forward to the canned salmon order which should arrive shortly. Thank you SO VERY MUCH for all of your hard work in providing quality products." Rosemary E., North Cape May, NJ
"Love love love your wild sockeye salmon and halibut, just ordered the Silver & King Salmon--the fish is so incredibly tasty & beautifully packaged. Many many thanks." C. Chandler, Wilmington, DE
"Thanks so much for shipping such incredible products. I'm hooked and am telling all my friends about you. Many Smiles." Niki C., Park City, Utah
"I presented your Product at the Dietitian Meeting today at the VA Medical Center and there was much enthusiasm!!! I have ordered materials by phone for the RD's here and staff at another Hospital (Carson Valley Medical Center) where I consult weekly. My excitement about your very nutritious product is catching attention !! I have ordered some of the Products and certainly will be sharing it with as many as I can. Thanks to you for contributing to HEALTH!"

I’ll be including your information in the latest printing of our book, “The Pro-Vita! Plan For Optimal Nutrition”
Dr. Jack Tips
Randy, I must say that your company is one of (if not the only one) the easiest companies to order from. Plus, this being one of many orders from you, I can say that so far I could not be more pleased; Keep up the good work! D. Gordon, Palm Springs, CA
Hi Randy, Just returned from the Wise Traditions Conference in Washington DC hosted by the Weston A. Price Foundation. I was so happy to see Vital Choice salmon on the menu for the evening banquet. (Although I have been buying your canned salmon, this was my first taste of the 'real thing'.) It tasted amazing and the feedback from people was very positive! I was delighted to share the Vital Choice story, and describe what sets it apart from other salmon.... Victoria Pritchard, Edmonton, Alberta
"We received our first order of salmon yesterday (canned, skinless & boneless) and I’m pretty sure we will have to re-order by the weekend because we are going through it so fast! It is, without doubt, the best salmon I have ever tasted. My 5 year old son and 2 year old daughter have devoured 3 cans between them since last night! Thanks for a fantastic product."
Gina Harris
I am extremely impressed with your site and products. You did an impeccable job on your FAQ page and carefully explained why you are clearly the best source for obtaining the highest quality salmon. I never knew there was so much to know about fishing and processing salmon - makes me shudder at all those times I ate low-grade salmon from the grocery store and restaurants. You really do get what you pay for!" R. Costello, e-mail
"We are so grateful for reading Dr. Andrew Weil's column about your fish products. We would NEVER buy in the grocery store again. The tuna and the salmon have the taste that is truly enjoyable. Thank you for being there for us." Vivian N., Madison, MS
"I just wanted to let you know that the sockeye salmon is out of this world !!!!! My daughter and I eat it almost everyday if not every other day for lunch with some kind of salad and we love it. What a difference from the food store brand. I will continue to buy from Vital Choice from now on.I even ordered some for my daughter's college dorm." Dawn, E-mail
"I received my first order waaaay down here in Texas today, had no idea how y'all intended to get all that lovely salmon here still frozen, but was willing to take a chance. I was so surprised to see it arrive in its own cooler (yep, I'll recycle it by filling it with beer later on), still solid as a rock. Thanks so much! Am planning a salmon feast tonight, PCB-free. :-)" Karen E., Fort Worth, TX
"I just wanted to thank you for your Sockeye Salmon Oil. I have been taken them about 6 months and I have to tell you that my cholesterol has never been better. It has dropped 54 points in a year. The only thing that I can attribute this to is your supplements and eating more salmon; which I do order from your company. I am a 5' 4", 106 lb; 55 year old women. I have been struggeling with my cholesterol for many years; have not had it under 200 for ages.
I wanted to share this with you ... I have the numbers from my doctor to prove it. I have just ordered more and have gotten my friends and trainer to do so. Thanks again. It is a great product."
Rosemary Santiello, Boston, MA
"Okay so far I have enjoyed your exquisite lox, salmon, to-die-for blueberries...this time we have ordered smoked salmon and more of the best blueberries ever! Thank you for your wonderfully delicious products, but more importantly for helping we humans benefit without ravaging our earth in the process." Patricia B., Milwaukee, WI
"Just thought I would let you know that the canned tuna is great! My husband and I both noticed the delicious taste and quality with our first bite. . . As it turns out I have already gone through 12 cans. Gave 4 to my son and daughter in law, 2 to my sister in law and my husband and I have started enjoying tuna salad again...Keep up the high quality and good work."
Sherrine B., Richmond, VA
"Hello, Just wanted to mention how much we enjoy your tuna product. There is nothing to compare with it in the supermarkets. One can is more than enough for both my wife and I for a meal, and the quality is superb. Thank you." David S., Findlay, OH
"We love your all of your products. Thank you for the high quality in packing & shipping. Please keep up the fine work you are doing in providing healthy salmon, tuna , etc. We will not buy from any other. You have made us completely loyal to your products and you deserve it." Jack & Barbara Beal, Gilroy, CA..
"I recently recieved two of your sampler packs - the canned sampler and the Pacific Medley... I have had the halibut - a tender mild delight, and the ivory salmon - a nice firm, meaty piece of fish; This evening I had the sockeye. It was undoubtedly the sweetest, most tasty piece of fish I have ever eaten. I would have expected to have had such seafood in an upscale restaurant with demanding standards, but here it was, in my very own home...I still have the rest to try, including all of the canned goods, but I already know I am going to be a regular customer. The service was quick, the product beautifully packaged and I feel absolutely safe eating this clean, healthy product. Thank you for making it available." Starr D., Middletown, OH
"I am just delighted to know that I finally have found a source for "wild" salmon. My wife and I shared a piece of the ivory and the light pink and I must say it is about the best salmon we have ever eaten. The first thing I did when I cut open each package was to give it the "sniff" test. I was amazed at the freshness. There was almost no smell. Thank you very much for the quality product. I am a true believer." David G., Deerfield, N. H.
"I eat wild Alaskan salmon twice a day and have for the past 2 years so I consider myself somewhat of a salmon expert. Your frozen sockeye fillets are the best I have ever tasted. I am so impressed with your product from the color, texture, and flavor to the shipping method, expediency and packaging. No wonder Dr. Perricone recommends your salmon, it is the BEST. I will spread the word to my friends, business associates and acquaintances that Vital Choice is the ONLY choice when it comes to salmon fillets. Thank you for making such a high-quality product available to end-consumers. You are doing an excellent job." Melody L., San Clemente, CA
"Just a note to thank you for providing a SUPERIOR product in all categories. I have just placed my 2nd order and look forward to doing business with you for a long time. Thank you again." Barbara & Jack B., Gilroy, CA
"I read Dr. Perricone's book, "The Wrinkle Cure." That's how I found your website. I have since ordered 3 times. Today I was out of Vital Choice and used a very good store brand. It was awful. I make salmon croquets and now I am spoiled. I have to have Vital Choice...Gotta have Vital Choice." Alice C. Atlanta, GA
"This was our first taste of Alaskan Salmon after many years of farmed raised meals. There is absolutely no comparison. The Alaskan Salmon is leaner, tastier, fresher looking and of course healthier. The service from Vital Choice was exemplary. After having a little difficulty with the web site -- probably operator error -- a call to customer service checked our order and even called back to confirm placing our order and the salmon was delivered the next day solidly frozen in dry ice. A great experience all around and you can bet we will recommend your service as well as continue to purchase from you." Anonymous email
I just placed my second order and doubled the quantity this time. The quality and taste of the fish we ordered (6 oz.Halibut & Salmon portions) is beyond compare. My husband and I eat a lot of fish but had been discouraged with the quality that we could buy at the grocery store. We were also alarmed to learn of the harmful toxins in farm raised Salmon. I found your website through Dr. Andrew Weil's site and am so glad I did! The fish arrived in perfect condition and as you claimed, the meat was fresh tasting and firm. It's nice to know that every piece of fish I eat from now on will be fresh and delicious with no more quessing! Thank you!
June & Ken M., Maumelle, AR
We just received your canned sampler package for the first time. All we have been used to is the salmon in the market and we were stunned!! We haven't eaten a lot of salmon because of the "fishy" taste and yours didn't have any! I made salmon patties which were so wonderful that my family didn't know what to say. No more pale pink salmon for us.... (your) products are absolutely what you say they are and its a beautiful thing!! Many thanks!
The Lynette McColl Family, West Virginia
After receiving our first Vital Choice purchase of canned salmon, salmon filets, and blueberries, we were thrilled! The quality of the salmon and blueberries far exceeded our wildest expectations in every aspect. The blueberries are like candy. I don't even have to add any sugar to my blueberry pie recipe, and my husband said he has never before seen or tasted salmon with such color and flavor. In addition, the quality of the customer service and shipping paralleled that of the products. We're on a tight budget, but it's worth every penny! Lynn G. & David F., Bethlehem, PA
Your thorough, timely responses and obvious commitment to providing excellent customer care and the highest quality products are so impressive that I will remain a loyal customer. I have referred VitalChoice products to 3 friends and all have been very pleased. Thanks very much! Allison H., San Francisco, CA
Love your wonderful products. This is my third reorder. Anxious to try them all. Salmon is truly delicious. Portions are just right. Shipping is perfect. Phyllis M., Philadelphia, PA
First time customer, and now a repeat customer. This is the very best salmon I have ever had. Very good! I have also enjoyed the wild blueberries. Thank you for creating such a great company. The customer service reps are positive and ready to address questions, the products and service are the best! Victoria Lynn W., Atlanta, GA
I just placed an order on your site for some more king salmon and tuna. It's great to do business with such a customer service oriented company! Karen S., Cary, N.C.
The Wild Red canned salmon is great! I eat it almost everyday. Mixed with organic brown rice and organic flax seed oil, it's becoming habit-forming. I'm so happy I found your website. Now, I finally have an easy way to include salmon in my diet with confidence that the quality is first rate. S. C. Rounds, Burbank, CA
Fabulous product! I've tried both the sockeye and king salmon to date... Since ordering from you, and being aware of the downfalls of farmed salmon I only eat your product. Keep up the good work. I try to spread info re/your products to all I know who both like salmon and are environmentally conscious. R. Mahala, New York, NY
My family just enjoyed our first order - it was without a doubt the best salmon we have ever tasted. Thank you for a quality product, an admirable business philosophy and caring about your customers' and the marine ecosystem's health. Great job!!!! Bill B., Denver, CO
After a couple of months of eating your wonderful salmon and halibut there is simply no way I could ever go back to eating store-bought, farm-raised salmon... It's so delicious and the best I have ever tasted any where in the USA! My husband and I will continue to buy from you for as long as you're in business -- which we hope will be a long time to come! Many thanks for making it so easy to stay with a healthy diet! Jean T., Mechanicsville, VA
The canned salmon is unbelievable. No fishy "smell" at all! Amazing. Thanks. Raj N., Fairfax, VA
Thank you so much for your excellent products. I very much appreciate your wonderful telephone agents. Every time I have called to place a order for salmon it has been a very positive experience. When the salmon has arrived it is in perfect condition and taste better than most restaurants. You are all appreciated. Susan R., Durham, N.C.
I have bought your canned salmon in the past and have always loved the taste and quality of your salmon. My kids and I love to eat it, and I'm especially glad that my kids enjoy it because it is so healthy for all of us. But I am especially impressed by the flash frozen King Salmon I just received this week. It was much more tender than I expected considering that it was "frozen." I absolutely love your salmon and will recommend Vital Choice to everyone I know!! Vanessa, Florida
I bought some farmed salmon and cooked it at home. The smell is almost unbearable. I mean it is rank...it smells like the big ol shad we catch when crappie fishing. Does your salmon smell like that when it is cooked? I can't take it. My house is messed up now! P.S. Im serious! Help--need some good salmon! (Editor's note: Farmed salmon has roughly twice the fat of wild sockeye salmon and a much fishier odor when cooking. High quality wild salmon never smells "fishy"). Anonymous email
My first package of your canned salmon just arrived. Minutes later I enjoyed the best salmon salad imaginable! This is the way salmon used to taste before they started mass producing, farming, and goodness knows what other treatment to this valuable and delicious food source. I commend you for your obvious care and pride in presenting the best product in the best possible way! Mary G., Sandy, Utah
Just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our salmon and blueberry order. You had recommended the king salmon for someone like me who prefers very mild fish. I was skeptical when the order arrived (exactly 2 days after my order) and thought it would taste like the salmon I'd tried from Whole Foods (like fish). I was wonderfully surprised from the moment I cut it open from the package. It had NO odor and the taste was incredible. I have a 21 yr. old son who is fond of salmon and after one bite actually asked me if he could have my portion too. I did get a few bites and can't wait to cook the next fillet. Next time I'm not sharing! -- I'll be reordering VERY soon. I'm "HOOKED!" Kathleen Lance, Burlington, N.J.
Hello Vitalchoice folks, I received my order of 6 cans of red sockeye salmon in two days and I decided to eat it for breakfast the very next day along with my very own homemade vegtable soup. Let me put it this way.....I find myself going to sleep earlier these days, just so breakfast will roll around sooner.....what more can I say......I love your salmon and am now doubling my order. Thanks a lot... Judie H., New York, N.Y.
What beautiful and tasty [blue] berries.... weird, but they are so beautiful, I almost hate to eat them. Will share with special friends. Maribeth P., Denver, PA
Just wanted you to know how much I love your products. This is my first order of blueberries, but am sure I'll be back for more. The salmon is incomparable to any store bought or restaurant salmon I've ever tasted. I frequently eat it right out of the can (bones and all) or with pasta or a baked potato.Thank you so much for offering such a nutritious and wholesome bounty of nature to everyone. Blake McCrary (e-mail)
I am so happy to have found your website. We love your salmon fillets and blueberries, but especially your salmon burgers. They are remarkably easy to cook and make the best burgers. I hope you continue to have them available. We are feeling healthier than ever. Carol I., New Port Richey, FL
Most women look forward to seeing the florist's van pull up in front of their home, knowing the delivery person will present them with a beautiful floral arrangement. Not me! I look forward to seeing the FedEx van pull up in front of my home, knowing the delivery person will present me with a Styrofoam cooler that contains my order from Vital Choice. Thank you for offering quality - time after time. Raini S., Aurora, CO
I bought frozen sockeye for myself and as a gift for a customer last week from you. We BBQ'd a couple of the fillets and I can honestly say it was the best salmon I have ever had. We eat salmon pretty consistently and I was truly shocked that it would be that different from off-the-dock, caught-by-a-friend, or from the store. I was very impressed. Thanks so much. Scott Wheeler, Bellingham, WA
Just tried my first can of your new product, the no salt canned salmon. We love it! Thank you so much for making this available. We bought two cases for starters and it will be on our regular menu from now on. Gold stars for you. Sandy T., Ocean Park, WA
My friend...told me how good your salmon is. She gave me a can to try and now I am really hooked! And I have given [away] a few cans myself and have found a few more people who love it too! Today I am also ordering the tuna and intend to try each product on your website... Thanks very much! Jan C., Norman Park, Georgia
I used to think that wild salmon was way too expensive. Then I decided to try Vital Choice wild Alaskan salmon. What I found was that it was much more filling than my supermarket salmon. The flesh was absolutely gorgeous. One thing that turned me off to the supermarket stuff was a little tag they had on the pack, "color enhancer added." The wild Alaskan salmon also cooks faster than the supermarket stuff. There was also a little article in TIME magazine about PCB's (polychlorobiphenyls) in farmed supermarket salmon. This happens because of the fish meal they are fed. I told my husband "It's a helluva lot easier to prevent cancer than treat it!" So we eat wild Alaskan now....The canned wild Alaskan salmon is really great too! Betsy, email
I am originally from the Pacific Northwest and ... got used to buying salmon on a regular basis. I have always loved salmon and even ate it daily when I worked in Alaska one college summer. My husband received a job with an agency that is based in a small town in West Virginia. Needless to say, I haven't been able to find Pacific salmon and the Atlantic salmon (which I really have never preferred) isn't very fresh and tasted awful. I was very homesick anyway and this one more thing didn't help. But I saw your ad on Dr. Weil's website and decided to give it a try. I ordered some king salmon fillets and received them pretty quickly. I tried one and it was WONDERFUL! This is the way salmon is supposed to taste and I am very glad to have found a way to continue to eat it. Thank you. Felicia P., Fairmont, WV
Vital Choice Wild Red is the best [salmon] I've ever eaten. It's great to open and use as a side dish, in a salad or on a sandwich. The flavor is so good it's hard to stop eating it! Linda S., Bradford, PA
"I am not a salmon eater. My husband and cousin on the other hand love it and urged me to try your salmon. OH MY GOD I loved it! It doesn't compare to anyone elses." Estella O., Elmont, NY
This is to let you know that I have tried my first, but not the last, order of sockeye salmon fillets and they are fabulous. . . I love the salmon and will be ordering some canned shortly. I must thank Drs. Perricone and Northrup for their referrals. Keep up the good work. Donna G., Palm Springs, CA
Your salmon is outstanding! I'm on a limited budget so am always on a quest to get the most for my purchasing dollars. Recently I purchased Salmon at a natural foods market and that, too, was from Alaskan waters and was significantly less expensive. Though it was wild harvested, I did not like the flavor or the odor. Who would have thought! ...I've just placed another order with your company. Your salmon is unsurpassed in my opinion. I'll save elsewhere...but not on my Salmon! Rosalie Birge, Litchfield, CT
Vital Choice Wild Red is the best salmon I have ever tasted in my life. The color was excellent, the taste and texture excellent. I will recommend it to all my friends. I have eaten other brands of salmon but nothing that tasted this good. Pauline T., Auburn, ME
I ordered your 6oz fillets and they were fantastic. This is the first time I have eaten any fish since March 2001. At that time I had all my amalgam dental fillings out and was not going to eat anything with the possibility of mercury contamination!! So it was quite a treat! Kate W.
I have never seen more beautiful fish fillets than yours . They were just gorgeous! My hands didn't have that fish slime all over them after touching them! I cooked them on the grill and I noticed that they are a lot more satisfying than the grocery store atlantic salmon. My dog ( Miss Nina ) got some skin, so everybody was very happy. I also ordered the blueberries. They are really great and they have intense blueberry flavor, unlike big fat store-bought blueberries! ... I am going to definitely order from you again for all my salmon cravings! Elizabeth Y., Metairie, LA
I received my shipment yesterday. Your salmon is exceptional!!! I'll be a returning customer. Thank you for your commitment to an excellent product. Barbara S., Colorado Springs, CO
I love salmon cakes and have eaten a lot of different brands [of salmon]. Vital Choice is by far the best I have ever eaten. It truly has the best aroma, color and flavor of any salmon, besides being good for you. Linda D., Driftwood, TX
I just wanted to let you know that yesterday I went to a pretty nice restaurant in Delray and had their grilled salmon on salad. NO COMPARISON. I love your sockeye salmon and I generally serve it on top of a salad for dinner. When you get an inferior piece of fish it makes you appreciate vital choice. Linda O., Delray Beach, FL
Just got the Halibut today.....WOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOO!!!! You have a new life long customer!! After having some for dinner, I just placed another order... Thanks for the great service and out of this world products!! I am sure we will be ordering again soon !! Dan H. & Family, Jacksonville, OR
The service has been outstanding and it is the best salmon I have ever had!! Anna P., Saratoga, CA
I could not be more satisfied with my order. I realize now that I have truly never seen healthy and fresh fish! I immediately had a salmon filet for dinner and it was better than even what I get from my organic market. The color and flavor is like nothing I have ever tasted before! I hope the cost of delivery remains so reasonable! I have already shared your web address with . . . one of the medical doctors I work with. Thank you for helping me on my road to a healthier lifestyle AND in a tasty way!! Barbra S., Chester, NY
[I'm] so "on the go", I never know when I'll be cooking...That's such a great thing about your products--they're fresher than fresh fish markets, and you don't have shop!!! Maria V., New York, NY
My family and I have to admit, this is the best Salmon we have ever had !! You folks are second to none !! Please keep up the good work, as now we are hooked... P.S. The blueberries are out of this world as well !! Dan H. & family, Jacksonville, OR
The salmon and blueberries are just awesome and I will be ordering again. Thanks for the great service and keeping me updated on the order. I'm not use to such service!! Trisha B., San Clemente, CA
I heard about your products from Dr. Mercola and my family absolutely LOVES your salmon. The products always arrive still frozen--they thaw easily and most importantly ...taste great! Jeanne L., Cordova, TN
This is a wonderful group of people with a terrific product. I have only the highest regards for Vital Choice. My family is very lucky to have access to such healthy and delicious seafood delivered to our home. R. Komkov, Austin, TX
Randy, You are providing a wonderful health-giving service to the planet with your business. And it is a pleasure to bring this information to my audience. It is also a pleasure to snap open these little cans of salmon and have an instant healthy meal! Dr. Christiane Northrup
WONDERFUL web site! Extremely easy to order and the products are superior. Delivery fast, on time, and completely hassle-free. Best salmon and blueberries I've ever tasted! Mary Lou L., Ceder Rapids, IA
Dear Randy, I am so thrilled to receive your wonderful variety of amazing fish. What a great product-- from the small salmon cans to the frozen halibut, we are very impressed. This is certainly a direct way for people to get into their system the natural and healthy omega 3's that are so vital to health...You can be sure I will begin to promote your products when I speak around the country... Margie Levine, Author, Surviving Cancer (www.margielevine.com)
I love every aspect of this company. Teri S., Colorado Springs, CO
I placed a large order a couple of weeks ago, but I came back to order more lox, canned salmon and blueberries. I'm a bit of a salmon aficionado but Vital Choice offers the best I've tasted anywhere in the world. The salmon is nutritious, Vital Choice delivers quickly, and everything keeps in the freezer. Who could ask for more? Joshua F.
Have just placed my second order. The canned salmon is absolutely the best I have ever had. My second order is for more canned salmon, some smoked salmon and blueberries. I am looking forward to trying all of your products. Keep up the good work! Marianna R., Kenosha, WI
One can order from this company with complete confidence; they stand behind their product and provide easy on-line ordering and superior customer service. Carol Y., Rockingham, VT
Excellent quality, outstanding response from the owner of the company regarding questions related to quality and health. Thanks, Randy! Keep up the great work. I am so glad to see you on Dr. Northrup's site. I originally heard of you from Mercola.com I think. My second order and now I've subscribed to autoship! Shari M., Tyler, TX
I have ordered several times before and enthusiastically return for the fine fish & blueberries. I can honestly feel an improved difference when I have eaten this fine salmon. A salmon serving a day keeps the physician and wrinkles away! Joan B., Sacramento, CA
Marvelous company and products from owner Randy, an amazing man on a mission to inform the world of the health benefits of salmon, and the crucial differences between 'salmon' and Wild Alaskan Salmon. Many thanks for your deep dedication... Sharon D., Pinelake, GA
I am so remarkably pleased and astounded at your service and level of professionalism… I'm convinced salmon from Alaska, and your company in particular, is the way to go for so many reasons…wild Pacific salmon seems to be the safest [source of nutrition during pregnancy] and contain the best punch of DHA for my little one.... DEEELICIOUS!!! Had the Nova today on an organic bagel and am SO happy!!! Thank you very much! Will be in touch when our supply runs low. Annie M., Golden Beach, FL
Dear Randy, Thank you so much for your wonderful gifts of salmon. My family and I were amazed at the flavor and had several wonderful meals thanks to your thoughtfulness. Nicholas Perricone, M.D.
I just wanted to say, that this is the best salmon I have ever had. At first, I thought I wouldn't like it, cause some of the commercial store bought salmon in the can isn't all that appealing. Well, I am amazed how much different it is. I will certainly order more in the future, cause what I ordered is almost gone. Glenda W., Donalsonville, GA
Excellent seafood products. Would like to see an expanded product line if possible. Don S., Carmel, IN
I took Dr. Perricone's recommendation in his book to order the Vital Choice product and I have been very satisfied with the quality. Dee P., Azusa, CA
We order regularly and really appreciate the quality of the seafood. R. Riddle, Tampa, FL
We were very pleased when our Vital Choice products arrived. Not only were they in perfect condition but the packaging and care that go into each product was way beyond expected. We have shared the products with friends who were just as impressed. S. Pollard, Carlsbad, CA
Your canned salmon is superior to any I have been able to purchase in local grocery stores. Well worth ordering. Anonymous e-mail
When I got Dr. Perricone's book and read his recommendation regarding eating Salmon I was really disappointed since I have not found any salmon that tasted good to me, but I decided to try your salmon... HAVE I BEEN PLEASANTLY SURPRISED! Wow, is this salmon the best tasting fish I've ever eaten. I received my package today... tried 2 pieces thus far, lunch and dinner...and well, I can't tell you how delicious this fish is! Thank you!!! You have a customer in me! I can't wait to try your other products! L. Greenwood, Redondo Beach, CA
My sister ordered your products for me after reading "The Perricone Prescription" and I was so impressed with the quality of the salmon and the taste that I want to regularly order from your company. J. Cuevas, Douglaston, NY
We have tasted the salmon...delicious. Obviously superior to supermarket's farm bred salmon. Now looking forward to tasting the smoked and canned salmon. L. Ware, Tampa, FL
Quality products & prompt shipping - excellent company J. Hacker, Stamford, CT
I have just placed my second order for the canned salmon. I just wanted you to know how pleased I am with the quality and flavor. It is excellent! I am glad that I learned of your products (through Dr. Weil) and expect I will be a regular customer as well as trying some of your other products. I also just ordered the blueberries, and I look forward to trying those. Thank you! Janine H.
I find the product outstanding, convenient and of great value.... I find the taste, texture and weight of the salmon to be outstanding. The flavor of the blueberries and accessibility at any time of the year is of benefit to me. I am highly satisfied with the quality and service provided through Vital Choice L. Watson, Hillsborough, CA
Dear Mr. Hartnell, We received the replacement order of the Salmon and Blueberries today and they arrived in perfect, frozen, condition. Thank you so much for resending them. We had Salmon tonight and it was delicious, a delight to eat. We certainly will be returning customers. Again, thank you for the attention you gave in regard to the shipping problem. G. Swearingen, Chesterfield, VA
The quality of the fish and berries are extremely high. Very happy to be a customer of Vital Choice Seafood. Liz P. Keyport, WA
Excellent quality and very nice people. I appreciated the service I received when Airborn delayed my order and shipped thawed out fish. My entire order was replaced to my satisfaction. Anonymous E-mail
We have ordered the salmon several times by telephone and find the fish to be excellent. Peter Perkins
Excellent source of Omega 3 high quality oils at a reasonable price.... More economical for me to buy this way, including shipping and handling, than to purchase at my regular store, Whole Foods Market... N. Shepardson
Upon reading Dr. Northrup's comments about Vital Choice's wild salmon [compared] to store purchased salmon, I was very excited about purchasing seafood thru this company. My experience has been wonderful and I feel I will become a monthly customer. CC Ridgeway
I was truly amazed at the difference (the quality) of salmon and halibut compared to what we get locally. I have learned very much especially about farmed vs. wild. Who knew? The markets don't divulge that information. Even though I was purchasing most of my fish from the "healthy" food store, I occasionally had to buy from our local chain store. I pass by that counter with a respectable distance now! J. Bosia, Sacramento, CA
Hi: I've been receiving your salmon for the last month and just want to tell you how much I love your product. Besides it tasting so wonderful, I also appreciate the quality of the salmon the most....and the blueberries are great too! Nancy R., Gowanda, NY
...What a treat! Vital Choice Seafood offers quality seafood and blueberries on a consistent basis. To date I have been very pleased with the seafood (salmon and halibut) and blueberries. Great quality at a superb price. Raini S., Aurora, CO
Having witnessed first hand, the farmed salmon pens in Maine, I am very happy to find a source of wild, naturally harvested fish. I was heartsick after seeing the captive salmon and the conditions in which they were farmed and haven't purchased any since then. Walter K., Newtown Square, PA
I'm recently moved back to Montana from Seattle and there are NO local options for this quality of fish. In fact, the flash frozen is often better than fresh at Pike Place! Lynnetta C., St. Ignatius, MT
Great company and great canned salmon - this is my second time ordering... Tandi T., Atlanta, GA
Dear Vital Choice, I just received my salmon and I wanted to thank you for your exceptional service. I have just tried some salmon and it is unbelievably wonderful. I will be ordering again. Athena Roe, Colorado Springs, CO
Thank you very much for the spectacular salmon....It's the best I've tasted. Cathie S., Sante Fe, NM
You are my new best thing!...salmon is so delicious when ordered from you. It's amazing...It isn't so great in the restaurants any more. Tiffany Lo, Fashion and Beauty Director, W Magazine
We cannot get wild salmon here in Amarillo. I compared your prices with other Alaskan salmon web-sites and believe you had the best prices. J. Clark, Amarillo, Texas
The wild salmon has no aftertaste...there's nothing but pure flavor! Your company is wonderful! I will definitely pass the word. J. Herder, Lakewood, NJ
The food is wonderful. It is the best canned fish I've ever tasted and the web site is easy to use. Andrew Quint, Richmond, CA
This was my second order. Fabulous fish quality, difficult to find even in upscale supermarkets. Jeffrey Peters, Palo Alto, CA
This is the second time I have ordered from Vital Choice Seafood. I was extremely pleased with my first shipment. R. Spatziani, Aurora, CO
I have been looking for wild salmon for months and was very happy to find Vital Choice Seafood. I am looking forward to having Alaskan Salmon rather than the Atlantic Salmon I have had to purchase. Gail Healy, Natick, MA
I got my order yesterday and want to say that the salmon is most excellent. I will be ordering monthly and I am also placing an order for my mother. Who would have thought that salmon would be a gift--but it is in my book. Pamela Hoblit, Jefferson, LA
This is how I feel when I eat Vital Choice Wild Red Salmon everyday: ( Picture of Wonder Woman) And this is how I feel when I don't eat Vital Choice Wild Red Salmon every day: (Picture of witch on a broom stick) Alinda Ruhle, Anchorage, AK
What a splendid parcel of salmon, halibut and blueberries! This was a very thoughtful, elegant gift.... The package arrived in excellent condition...I'm impressed with the good planning that has gone into the preparation and shipping of this product, as well as the fact that it's harvested sustainably. Nice size portions for an individual cooking for oneself. Good company! La Vonne L., Cave Creek, AZ
The quality of the products could not be better. S. Allen, Benbrook, Tx
