| | | AD | The "Fresh" Seafood Myth You've Probably Fallen For | | A lot of people think frozen seafood is the backup plan — something you buy when you can't get it fresh. But here's the truth: when it comes to quality, frozen can actually be fresher than what's behind the grocery store counter. | Most "fresh" fish has already been frozen for transport, and is then thawed for display (sometimes even thawed and refrozen many times!). By the time you see it on ice at the seafood counter, it may have been sitting there for days. Not exactly what you pictured when you thought "fresh," right? | For fish that's truly fresh, "frozen" should be your go-to choice. Wild Alaskan Company freezes wild-caught seafood from Alaska just hours after harvest, locking in peak flavor, texture, and nutrients — perfectly preserved until you're ready to cook. | It's not a shortcut. It's the smart way to enjoy top-quality seafood at its best. | How to Make Frozen Fish Your Go-To* → |
