Vital Choice premium quality Portuguese mackerel are sourced from the same local family that provides our superior Sardines.

They've been picking and packing the finest fish for more than 100 years, selecting the tastiest mackerel, and processing and cooking with the care needed to ensure the best flavor and texture.

A mackerel safe for mother and baby

Our small, sustainably harvested “chub” mackerel (Scomber colias) are caught off the Atlantic coast of Portugal.

This popular mackerel presents no safety concerns, as it is very low in mercury, unlike large King mackerel, which young children pregnant and nursing women are advised to avoid or minimize.
