Okay, sounds pretty good from an environmental perspective, but what about the taste and is it wallet friendly?
This salmon, similar to Atlantic farmed salmon, has a somewhat lighter, less fishy taste than wild salmon. Customers have given good reviews on the taste. There is an increased cost in production because closed containment farms actually pay the full cost of growing fish instead of letting the environment bear the cost. However, closed containment salmon can still be sold to consumers at a competitive price. A great deal considering that, unlike open net cages, they pay the full cost of waste disposal, disease control and preventing escapes.
