Succulent Wild Pacific King Salmon.
Fish is an outstanding source of high-quality protein, and certain varieties are high in antioxidants and healthy omega-3 fatty acids such as DHA and EPA, but some types can be sources of toxins and dangerously high levels of mercury, too.
This isn't just my assessment… many expert physicians, health organizations and even government agencies have issued similar warnings.
Because certain types of fish deserve a center spot in a healthy diet, I have made it my mission to locate a truly clean source – a source of fish that's low in toxins and major health risks.
Now, I'm pleased to announce that my search has revealed not just one variety of healthy fish – but several.
After extensive research with the help of an independent lab, and of course, test-tasting the fish in a variety of recipes, I can now confidently and enthusiastically recommend a brand of truly wild-caught Alaskan and Pacific Northwest fish to you!

Harvested With Conscience From the Purest Waters on Earth
Alaskan Halibut & Sockeye Combo
What makes Vital Choice fish so superior?
Simply, they capture the fresh-caught quality of fine, sustainably harvested Alaskan salmon and other Alaskan and northwest Pacific fish by cleaning and flash-freezing within hours of harvest.
Finding high-quality salmon can be difficult. Just because the label reads “wild,” you can’t always be sure...
Investigations by The New York Times and a leading product-testing consumer magazine revealed that much of the salmon sold as “wild” is actually farmed fish.
Vital Choice accepts and offers for sale only the very best, truly wild seafood. In fact, less than 1% of wild Alaskan salmon meets their strict standards.
After over 50 years of combined fishing experience, their founder and executive staff know where to get the best, most carefully handled wild salmon and seafood, at the best price possible.
The native Alaskan fisheries supplying their fish are certified sustainable by the Marine Stewardship Council (identified by the blue MSC logo) or the State of Alaska, so you’re assured of not only the best fish, you’re supporting a healthy, sustainable environment, too.
The Signature Fillet – Get It Whole or in Convenient Portions
There’s nothing like a whole wild sockeye fillet to dazzle your guests or to grill up for a fast night’s dinner.
Each species of wild salmon has its own characteristic flavor and texture, but Alaskan wild sockeye is widely considered the most popular for its deep, rich “true salmon taste.”
Make a culinary statement with the large whole Sockeye Fillet
What makes Vital Choice’s sockeye so special?
Through decades of fostering relationships with local Alaskan fisherman, they’ve earned rare access to the finest of fish.
Vital Choice’s sockeye comes from smaller harvest regions that host fewer boats and feature faster processing. That means fresher fish and fresh-caught quality for you, as the sockeye is flash-frozen within hours of harvest.
Sockeye salmon contains abundant omega-3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA) and vitamin D. Each 6-ounce serving provides 4 to 8 times more omega-3 DHA and EPA than the minimum daily intake recommended by health experts.
And don’t forget sockeye’s natural vibrant red hue – that’s from astaxanthin, an important carotene antioxidant!
With an average size of 24 ounces, Sockeye fillets are the perfect choice for backyard barbecues or the centerpiece for dinner feasts. These skin-on fillets thaw and cook quickly, and one will feed a smaller family.
Wild Sockeye Salmon 6oz portions with skin-on for even more flavor
Prefer individual portions that you can keep frozen until you’re ready to use them?
The same top-grade wild Alaskan Sockeye is available in individually flash-frozen 6-ounce portions for your convenience.
Choose skinless, boneless portions or skin-on, boneless portions with fatty under-layer still intact for even more delicious salmon flavor.
Fillets and portions are delivered to your door frozen, so you can thaw and cook whenever you please. Sealed packages may be immersed in cool water for 20 minutes to thaw. Once thawed, remove fish from package, rinse under cool water and pat dry before cooking.

Get Ready for TWO Ultimate Treats – King Salmon Candy and Wild Salmon Jerky!
A pure delight to the senses: King Salmon Candy
Vital Choice’s story says it best about this deliciously moist, sweet-and-smoky Salmon "Candy"...
“We take some of our premium line-caught King Salmon harvested by hand when fat content peaks, de-bone this incomparably oil-rich fish, brine it in salt and brown sugar, and smoke it to succulent perfection with alder wood.”
King salmon are the perfect species for Salmon Candy because of their naturally high levels of body fat. These huge fish must struggle against strong currents over long distances to spawn, so they devour a rich diet at sea in preparation for their arduous journey upriver.
King Salmon Candy come packed as 2 to 3 de-boned strips per 5-ounce package, and are prepared without nitrites or artificial additives and preservatives.
Wild Salmon Jerky are kid- and adult-friendly
You’ll find King Salmon Candy included in our Wild Alaskan Smoked Salmon Sampler package.
Equally tasty are our healthy and kid-endorsed Wild Salmon Jerky.
A great alternative to beef jerky, salmon jerky is a flavorful combination of wild sockeye and keta salmon with a touch of mild organic herbs and spices, and a hint of smoky flavor enhanced with a pinch of sea salt and organic sugar.
Gluten, nitrite and preservative free, these tasty strips contain less sodium than other brands. Each 6-ounce package contains 12 half-ounce individually sealed strips and has a one-year shelf life at room temperatures.
Either makes a great choice for a delicious protein snack!
