  6. Cost Co product is great and good Bargain , there prodiousese like eggplant , you have to be carful, it happen I bought some vegetable or eggplant brought it home opened was spoiled. You returned no Questions they take back ,but for me is very difficult .so I loose.

  7. How does the price compare once you include the price of membership? Let's keep it easy and assume you only go in for the salmon. Is there a diffe6worth the trip to Costco – Hell? I don't think so, but I'm no expert…..

  9. I think the Kirkland brand is frozen. What you should try is the fresh, never frozen variety, available in New York at least, from a smoked fish house called Acme, sold either under that name or as Blue Hill Bay. That I think is their best product and is about competitive with the Kirkland on price. It's gone up a couple of dollars recently but hasn't everything. Be interested in your comparison of those.

  10. I used to smoke salmon but had to quit. They were just to hard to light.

    Seriously though, most people don't know what truly good smoked salmon is. So many changes in production and now primarily use of farm raised fish dominates the market. While in high school back in the late 60's I worked at an authentic New York kosher deli for three years. It was here that I developed a taste for Nova lox which was made from wild caught fish then dry brined, lightly smoked, sliced thin, and put into 5 lbs metal trays. The fish was so rich in its own oil that we used the oil in our cream cheese and lox spread. Nova sold packages of smoked salmon trim that was used as an economical break making it more affordable.
    A way I now buy the Costco Norwegian fresh Atlantic salmon and smoke my own that way I can control a variables like salt and smokiness. The days of Yukon river line caught king salmon are coming to a sad end. That salmon was by far the best for smoking.

  19. People really need to look into the high bar that Norway holds its salmon producers to before criticizing them. They are an affordable, tasty product that is ethically raised by people who are paid a living wage.

  20. Why are so many in this comments section living in paranoia and fear? Accusing the presenter of nefarious motives with zero evidence?

    If you don't want to eat salmon, don't. It'll just lower the price for the rest of us. And how about you stop abusing your children? Unfounded accusations aren't so fun when they're directed at you, are they?

  22. I freaking love salmon but let's be real guys. You get PCBs with your Omega3s and farm-raised is nasty (those farms have rampant sea lice and disease and they use pesticides and antibiotics, dare you to google some videos about it). It's sad but I eat very little salmon these days because it's all raised in those filthy farms (including the product being recommended).
