On Friday, Dec. 7, Whole Foods Market is hosting a one-day sale on wild-caught Marine Stewardship Council (MSC)-certified sockeye salmon for $7.99/lb. – a savings of nearly 50 percent!
Whole Foods Market’s sockeye salmon are hand-selected by our own port buyers at the peak of the season, then packed exclusively for our seafood cases to stock during the winter months. It’s delicious prepared with a marinade or rub.
Whole Foods Market maintains the highest standards for seafood quality – they prohibit treating our fish with preservatives. Your salmon purchase supports healthy oceans, too. The sockeye is certified sustainable by the MSC, meaning salmon populations are relatively abundant, fishing methods have minimal impact on the ecosystem and the fishery is managed effectively to maintain sustainability. And to add to it, the MSC’s chain of custody certification means that the fish are fully traceable, fishery to Whole Foods Market store.
