Quick Preservation, Speedy Seafood Delivery

It's probably a safe bet to say that most Americans don't know a whole lot about how fish and shellfish are harvested and processed. However, with the popularity of behind-the-scenes reality shows like "Deadliest Catch," consumers who enjoy fresh fish are actually becoming savvier and demanding better quality in their seafood, delivery and customer service. This is a good thing for Island Seafoods - not so much for other vendors.

There is plenty of competition in the mail order seafood industry; sellers are all too aware that consumers will have no problem taking business elsewhere if what they want isn't available. This competition is good in the sense that it forces mediocre vendors to shape up or ship out. To further weed out inferior sellers, steer clear of vendors who offer little information about their product or process.

For example, be dubious of any online seafood retailer that isn't upfront about where their fish is harvested, how it is processed and how they plan to get it to your door. Without these details, there's no way to know whether the fish are farmed or caught in the wild, whether artificial preservatives will be used in the processing, how the fish will be prepared or how often it will change possession on its journey to you. You pay good money for a product that you expect is top-notch; you have every right to ask for any information that will help you determine whether the food is worthy of your hard-earned dollar.
