Only pollock caught in Alaskan waters can be labeled as Alaska Pollock. Fish labeled as simply “Pollock” is typically harvested and processed in Russia or China, and it is often twice frozen and contains additives. Once-frozen is best. Wild Alaska Pollock is typically once-frozen shortly after it is caught in order to lock in freshness and flavor. In contrast, twice frozen pollock may suffer from shrinkage and degradation due to water loss, and it is likely to contain additives. The additive most often found in twice-frozen pollock is Sodium Tripolyphosphate (STPP), which is used to prevent water loss in twice-frozen products. Deep Skinned vs Regular Skinned. Deep-skinned fillets are slightly whiter and produce a better yield, while regular-skinned fillets are more common and cost-effective. Both are good choices depending on your needs.

  • School Lunch Go Fish!
    School Lunch! GoGo Fish!Fish! Seafood gets straight As. Research shows that seafood’s nutrition benefits students of all ages. That is why the Dietary Guidelines for Americans and American Heart Association both recommend eating seafood at least twice a week.1,2 Seafood earns top grades in many ways: A+ for needed nutrients: Seafood is rich in nutrients needed for growth and development. However, many students’ food choices lack these key nutrients. Seafood’s nutrition profile includes: • Vitamins A and D — necessary for normal eye and bone development. • Omega-3 fats (EPA and DHA) — essential for growth and development, especially of eyes and brain.3 A+ for kids in the classroom and cafeteria: Did you know kids who eat fish at least once per week may do better in school? Research shows an association between fish intake and better grades!4 The benefits of seafood go beyond just grades. Early exposure to seafood encourages kids to be lifelong fish eaters for lifelong benefits! A+ throughout life: Many types of seafood are rich in omega-3 fats — including EPA and DHA — two healthy fats that: • Feed your brain: studies show fish eaters have bigger memory and learning centers. • Better your sight: along with supporting healthy eye development, omega-3s support our ability to detect light. • Have D for your bones: just one serving of salmon provides 100% of the daily recommended value for vitamin D! Seafood earns an A+ throughout the lifespan because eating it regularly supports longevity! Eating seafood 2 to 3 times per week has been proven to reduce risk of death from any health-related cause.5 A+ for versatility: USDA MyPlate says to vary your protein routine and eat seafood twice a week.

Alaska pollock versus Cod 6 “The change of the scientific name in the AFSIS list will be implemented only when Gadus chalcogrammus is accepted by the majority of taxonomists and the number of recent scientific documents surpass those documents referring to Theragra chalcogramma”.
