Fresh Wild Sockeye Salmon Fillet ($16.99/lb)

$16.99 per pound?

12.99 Fortinos and 14.99 Metro

Got a whole fillet for $14 at Costco

Usually Longos' quality is better though I've found.

This is very frustrating to see. A whole fillet? A half pounder whole fillet? Or what

The ones in Costco (at least near where I live) are all previously frozen.

the longos wild sockeye is a darker red, usually better quality as far as taste (I find at least)

Wild is usually more expensive than farmed. Compare apples to apples pricing. I would never eat farmed fish.

Thanks for all the feedback guys. I will be buying from Longos.

I remember few years back I bought from Longos and it was the best fish I've ever had. I also bought from Metro a few weeks later and it wasn't quite as good.

Though it seems Longos, Metro, Fortinos are all selling wild. Not sure about Costco.

All sockeye are wild.

Right up there with measuring fuel consumption according to "Number of weeks between fill ups"...

Wild salmon is dark red from their diet.
The pink salmon we usually see is farmed.
Their natural colour of farmed salmon is grey but farmers add pink dye (organic dye that is same as carrot's ) to make it more attractive.

Even Longos flyer sockeye looks better than Fortinos.

You're comparing flyer pictures as a way to judge the store? You know they can change the tint in the picture...I guess photo altering is worth every penny like Kim Kardashian would say. JK LOL.

Farmed sockeye salmon doesn't exist. If it's sockeye, it's wild.

Roger. I was just talking generally about fish.

I supply both these retailers with their sockeye and seafood.

It's the same...go with Fortinos

But I've had sockeye from different stores and Longos is #1 for me personally.

OP, the guy just said, in the post literally above yours, that he supplies the fish and its the same. This thread is a train wreck lol
