Wild Planet Foods Review & Giveaway!

I am always looking for new products to review on my blog. It is all the better if they are food products. Even better, food products that are good for me and the planet.

When I was asked to review some Wild Planet foods, I was intrigued. I had never heard of these products but I became interested because Wild Planet's harvesting practices are 100% compliant with the Best Choices for Sustainability offered by a number of environmental groups. I like that because I believe that sustainable harvesting is very important.

Wild Planet Albacore is pure tuna with no water or oil to drain. It contains an average of  3,350mg Omega 3 per can. Wild Planet’s once-cooked tuna is vastly superior in nutritional potency compared to other tuna. Its high level of Omega 3 is attainable because Wild Planet packs raw tuna steaks into the can than cooks the tuna in the can. This causes the albacore’s nutritious natural juices to stay in the tuna. It is also lower in mercury due to the smaller, individually-caught tuna sourced by the company.

Wild Planet's uses pole and troll fishing. These methods prevent catching other sea life like sea turtles, sharks, dolphins etc. This is important because I have heard about how fishing for tuna can harm other fish and destroy ocean habitats. It is always a more appealing product if the company is making an effort to  making a difference and being friendly to the environment.

Wild Plant tuna is also packed in BPA free cans, which has become more important to me.  It is also OU Kosher certified. Plus, it is delicious. I don't eat a lot of tuna but I do get cravings for it once it a while. I won't eat fresh tuna but will eat canned tuna. Yes, I am weird. Anyhow, I really liked the Wild Planet tuna. It tasted fresher than other canned tuna that I have eaten. I really enjoyed it! I would definitely recommend it.

If you want to try Wild Planet tuna, you can find it in selected stores like Whole Foods, Gelsons, Earth Fare, Giant Eagle and many others. You can also order the products online on the Wild Planet website.  There are a lot of great products available!
