What is the difference between Pink and Sockeye Salmon?
Pink and Sockeye Salmon are both found in Pacific Northwest waters. Sockeye Salmon (red salmon) is often preferred by salmon lovers because of its rich and flavorful meat. Sockeye Salmon has a high oil content (Omega 3) with a deep red meat color and firm texture. Pink Salmon is also very flavorful, though the meat texture tends to be less firm than Sockeye Salmon and the meat is pink in color.
