Can "some" frozen seafood be better than "some" never frozen seafood?

Skipper's Market
Yes, with modern advances in the freezing process, frozen seafood can absolutely be better than never frozen seafood. The answer depends entirely on the handling of the seafood from harvesting to market. So how do you distinguish the difference? This is why your relationship with Skippers is important. We will only sell the best quality frozen and never frozen seafood.

Is all frozen seafood the same?

Skipper's Market
No....today many seafood processors pack the seafood using a flash freeze technology that did not exist several years ago. Flash frozen seafood usually results in seafood that better maintains the original texture and taste. Seafood that is frozen using older "slow freeze" techniques usually result in seafood that becomes mussy after it is thawed. Skippers may sell both previously frozen and never frozen seafood.

What is an example of how frozen seafood can actually be "fresher" than never frozen seafood?

Skipper's Market
For example, seafood is caught on a 48 hour day boat. The boat returns to the dock with the fresh seafood that now may be two days old. It is packed and processed through a seafood brokerage on the third day. It is then sent to a fresh market for sale to you the consumer. If we assume two days in transit, then your never frozen seafood may be five days old when it is placed in the seafood case.

Is frozen better than fresh fish?

Wild Alaskan Salmon and Seafood
Our frozen fish is better than fresh! It is flash frozen at a very low temperature (-40) as soon as it is brought in to the dock. This seals in all the nutrition and fresh flavor that you may miss from the fish that took two extra days to arrive on your plate fresh. Frozen is also easy to prepare as most seafood can even be cooked frozen! See our recipe page for details.

WHY IS FRESH BETTER THAN FROZEN?

Fresh, Organic, Free-Range - Thanksgiving Turkey FAQ
Freezing changes the texture of any meat to a greater or lesser extent, in part because of dehydration. And, when you buy a frozen turkey, you never really know how long it has been frozen. One thing is for sure: During defrosting, meat purges some of its inherent moisture, resulting in a less juicy result. In storage and during shipping your turkey’s temperature will register between 28ºF and 30ºF.

And is frozen better then dried or does it not make a difference?

MollyReproFAQ2
Thanks for your time, I really appreciate the help and advice. Oh, and out of curiosity, I couldn't find any articles about mollies, just the FAQ's. I'm a new Mollie mom and I have read a lot of your posts and have found your site VERY informative! I bought 6 Mollies from PetSmart, 2 black females, 2 Dalmatians (1 male and 1 female) and 2 silver (1 male and 1 female). After reading several sites about mollies and found out how many babies they can have I researched how to tell the sexes apart.

Live food vs. Frozen defrosted. Which is better for me to feed to my snake?

Ultimate Reptile Suppliers
There are pros and cons for both feed types. The animals that you purchase from Ultimate Reptile Suppliers have been fed on frozen defrosted and this will become evident in a moment. Live food can bite back! If your animal does not eat it or grabs it the wrong way, there is the real chance that the live feed will defend itself (or even feed itself!).

Can they be frozen?

BroccoSprouts: Sprout FAQs
Freezing BroccoSprouts will not hurt the antioxidant potential of the sprouts at all. Unfortunately, when the sprouts are thawed they become quite mushy and soft. If you plan to use the sprouts in a soup or other dish where this will not be a factor, then freezing will be fine. If you desire a fresh, crunchy sprout, they are best kept in the refrigerator. As long as the sprouts are kept refrigerated they should stay fresh for several weeks.
