Smoked salmon is the only way to go imo. Can't go wrong.
That looks nice and red.
By the time it gets here it's pink and frozen. :(

There are many different type and kinds of salmon. Those pale pink ones you guys buy back there are the shit we won't sell for cat food on the west coast. Soory AB but. the truth hurts.
If it is pale pink it is old and almost spawned or it is farm raised.

So? That's why I can't go out west. I'd figure out how sucky Illinois seafood is.
I'm happy eating your reject fish. Leave me alone. :(

About 20 years ago, the company that I worked for sent me to Chaska Minn for a school. They took us out to lunch each day. I never realized how good we had it with our salmon until I saw what those fuckers were eatting and calling salmon. I said to the one guy, "I thought you ordered salmon?". He said "it is". I laughed and said "salmon isn't supposed to be white like trout."
I think I hurt the guy from Minn. feelings that day. :lol:

Yeah...your fish is better but my Midwest tomatoes would make you cry. Like salmon...tomatoes can't swim from Illinois to Oregon. We all have something special. I got sweet corn, raspberries, cherries, apples, pears, apricots, maters, and more.

I want some fresh salmon! It is still red where I normally shop, but I have nothing to compare it to.

Probably should mention that I spent three summers in Alaska.
When I worked at Akiak the mayor had sled dogs. He had 100 or more and raced in the Iditarod. Robert Ivan.
Robert had fish traps and fed the dogs salmon. He had a huge Jon boat and would fill it full of fish. Half a fish for each dog...every day. I ate some fresh salmon and that nasty dried fish stuff too. I thought I was biting into fish jerky but it's mushy inside. Awful. Could not choke it down so I didn't ask for any more fish.
Didn't have the nerve to ask if we could cook one.

They also dye that shit to look fresher and more marketable with a deep red color.

Had a feeling that some of the fish we get is dyed. I mean if I go to schnucks and pay big $ to the fish monger...they have filets that look like they just came off the boat. We buy the frozen kind. Paying extra for some red dye ain't happening.

Would not surprise me. I like salmon, but when I can get a KC strip for cheaper, it's a no brainer. I know it fresh.

Really? How do you know it was never frozen? They put dye in beef as well.

Unlike Assa I don't want to see our union dissolve and the country go all Mad Max beyond the Thunder Dome but I would love to see a legit cession movement get moving to see how the federal government would react.

This fresh beef sounds like mine. Its not fresh but was alive when we bought it last year. :)
I know what you're saying. For instance hamburger. If we buy it at the store it has water in it plus so much fat our grill flames like Hades.
The stuff we have in our freezer came from a half-cow we paid to have processed. Way different.
Should I say...better? :)
