What are the differences between Chinook Salmon and Sockeye Salmon?
Sockeye Salmon has a bright red hue from eating zooplankton which provides significant amounts of carotenoids and B12. Sockeye has a medium fat content.
Chinook salmon has a higher fat content, softer texture and has a higher overall omega 3 content per serving.
Both Sockeye and Chinook salmon are considered to be the very best-tasting and healthiest types of salmon.

Sockeye Salmon Nutrition Information (red)
The bright red hue of sockeye fillets is due to the high carotenoid content of sockeye salmon’s diet.
Sockeye Salmon's diet predominantly revolves around zooplankton; nutritious small organisms that live near the surface of marine environments. This zooplankton provides significant amounts of carotenoids and B12.
