Product Roundup: Convenient Seafood: However You Want It, Whenever You Want It

Seafood consumption in America continues to grow each year as consumers seek healthier, more sustainable sources of protein.

However, many remain wary of how to properly shop for and prepare seafood dishes at home. To combat this, companies are offering more ready-to-eat products, many packing a flavorful punch, that can be consumed straight out of the package or easily added to another dish.
