Yeah, a picture would have helped your argument against farmed salmon.  Expensive was it?  How much was halibut? How much was fresh coho, chinook, or sockeye? Oh wait, there is none ;D

I can waite for wild salmon it to be in season but.... that slimey looking over priced atlantic stuff is like yuk ! it was $27 for1 fillet didnt look at the price per kg

A simple picture would have made more sense. Was it farmed in the US? May I suggest you go back, and back up your feelings with a picture.  :)

Sorry but I live 4hrs drive from a costco. A picture and the origin of the salmon you speak of would be nice to back up your feelings. :)

feelings don't need to be backed up with facts. arguments, yes definitely.  but not feelings.  I think someone is allowed to feel a certain way.


that link you posted would be like people saying they prefer the tast of 'regular' grain fed beef as opposed to natural grass fed beef.... that gamey flavour is too much for a few.

..."When standout flavors were detected, it was not in a good way. A couple of samples had off-flavors that were picked up by some tasters, but not by all."

I have also never tasted fish that was "off" generally my mom told me eating things that are "off" are probably bad.

also the winner is packed in a salt solution...... and you have two restaraunt guys, a pro fish farm corporate guy, and three jabronis who work for the paper that are happy for a free lunch.... that taste test is about as scientific as ms.mortons work.

I have been told the Atlantic's sold in the Abbotsford Costco are imported from Chile.  Perhaps an interested reader shopping there could confirm that by checking the packaging or asking the manager.
