I've always called Atlantic Mackerel a true "fish lovers" fish because it has dark flesh with lots of fat and flavor that many shy away from. Mackerel has an undeserved bad reputation as a greasy, strong, "fishy-tasting" fish, but to me its the perfect fish in every way...

A great fish that most people outside of New England have never heard of is Hake. It's not that there aren't enough of them—the North Atlantic stocks are plentiful and sustainable.

...The majority of shrimp sold in the U.S. is imported. This is unfortunate not only because of the problems of habitat (mangrove) destruction and the use of chemicals and antibiotics in other countries, but also because some of the world's best shrimp come from right here in the U.S!

No pre-cooked frozen shrimp here...
