Fun Facts:
WILD Alaska Salmon swim thousands of miles in the open ocean before returning to their birthplace to spawn.
The salmon’s vibrant red color comes from their natural diet of krill and plankton, rich in astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant.
There are five species of Wild Alaska Salmon: King (Chinook), Sockeye (Red), Coho (Silver), Pink (Humpback), and Chum (Dog). Each has its own unique flavor and texture.
