At this year's Natural Products Expo West, Dear North showcased its flavorful range of Salmon Bites.
While this term often refers to small-sized portions of salmon that are meant to be served with dinner, this product is suited to snacking. The Alaska Salmon bites come in a range of unexpected flavors like Wild Alaska Spruce, Spicy Fireweed Honey and Salted Rhubarb & Raspberries. Out of the package, the bite-sized salmon snacks resemble strips of jerky. As an alternative to mainstream beef jerky types, these salmon strips are also branded as rich sources of protein that will satisfy with unconventional flavors.
In line with a rise in health consciousness, meat is being consumed in smaller portions and making the transition from dinner's main course to a staple snack food.
