Yellowfin Tuna
The yellowfin is a beautiful fish, named for its bright yellow dorsal and anal fins and the yellow stripe along its sides. Found worldwide in deep, warm temperate oceanic waters. Tuna is great for making quick, healthy meals. Graded as #1, #2+. Grading is done by inserting a hollow probe into the flesh of the fish, then pulling out a section to determine meat color and fat content. The redder the meat and the higher the fat content, the higher the grade. Yellowfin is leaner and less expensive than bluefin and big eye tuna. Tuna has a moderate and distinct flavor with a large flake. A must for all menus.

Rainbow ‘Green’, Golden, and Ruby trout
Green trout is what the guys on the farm call the regular rainbow trout. Since they have ruby and golden as well, it is just a term they use to distinguish between the three. Our ‘green’ trout is what every sales person calls rainbow trout. Red and golden continue to be very tight. The end is not in sight yet.
