Take a handy, ready-to-serve, skinless/boneless wild Alaskan sockeye salmon portion wherever you go! 

Each foil pouch contains one fully cooked 6 oz wild sockeye portion and a pinch of natural sea salt.
They're also great for hiking, boating, camping, climbing or anywhere ease of preparation and minimal packaging size and weight are desirable.

NOTE: The pouches do not have resealable openings due to the retort cooking process, which preserves the fish perfectly for up to three years.
 
Sockeye salmon nutrition
In addition to ample protein, Alaskan sockeye salmon offers abundant omega-3s, as well as unrivaled levels of vitamin D and astaxanthin (as-tuh-zan-thin) … a carotenoid-class red-orange pigment with rare antioxidant power.
 
On average, sockeye salmon provides these amounts of nutrients per 6 oz portion:
  • Omega-3s – About 1,994mg of omega-3 EPA+DHA, or 4 to 8 times more than the minimum daily EPA+DHA intake recommended by most world health authorities (250-500mg)).
  • Vitamin D3 – About 1,170 IU in the optimal D3 form, which is more than most other fish, and more than any fortified food, approaching the child-to-adult US RDA of 600 IU.
  • Astaxanthin – About 6.78 mg. This red-orange pigment is a carotenoid-class nutrient with unique health benefits.

Storage
Keep retort-pouched fish in a cool place. Consume by the recommended date. (Retort-pouched fish can be stored for five years if kept cool.)

Serving Tips
Like Tuna, our Wild Red™ Sockeye Salmon tastes great in sandwiches or salads (click our Recipes tab for some easy recipe ideas) -- plain or with a bit of mayonnaise or seasoning mix. We like to sprinkle on a bit of our Lemon-Pepper Mix or Organic Salmon Marinade mix.

Review: Vital Choice pouched sockeye salmon is a nutritious and hearty take-along food when traveling by plane, train, car, horse or foot. This sockeye salmon provides both healthy and delicious protein on these occasions. I have eaten this salmon straight from the bag while flying to Europe (bring a lemon or ask for a lemon slice from the flight attendant and add a squeeze!) and I've made sandwiches using gluten free bread and avocado (no refrigeration needed) when traveling by car or train and when st... More details
