I have Alaskan Pollock every other Friday... it's a white fish, so it isn't too strong... if you like sole or cod or haddock, you will like pollock... I buy it frozen at the grocery store, let it thaw for about an hour, put it on a baking sheet greased with a little olive oil at around 400F for 12 minutes or so... when it flakes with a fork, it's pretty much ready. Add some black pepper, veggies on the side... delicious.

Pollock is a form of Cod, and it's not bad, but a little stronger than the cod you might be used to. Not offensive at all, just a bit different.
I cannot stand a strong, oily fish, but Alaskan Pollock if reasonably fresh is good.
On our three trips to Alaska, we have never seen the Pollock for sale, either in stores or restaurants, I guess they just use it for export, but the same goes for the Coho and similar salmon, that stuff they air dry for the dogs and export to the lower 48.

Wild Alaskan Salmon is raised in the river beds of Alaska with a plethera of influences effecting their taste. Farmed Raised Salmon is grown in a pond, with set influences of biologicals available to their eating range, set water balances of minerals and vitamins, and so on..................Good for you that you noticed the difference! Stay in tune with those taste buds as you try meats, poultry, seafood and white fish, "farm raised and home organic foods" may bolster their advertisements with a healthier, safer environment, but the flavor comes from many unresearched avenues....................what's the trade off? We have only hit the tip of the iceburg on food research, when it comes from varying parts of the world, their water sources, soil content and so on.................Best of luck, go with your taste buds!

Every species will have a unique taste. Personally, I love the taste of farmed salmon. It has a more "buttery" taste that I love. The reason they taste different is mainly due to their fat content...where farmed will have slightly higher fat because they do not get the same "exercise"/activity as wild. They don't have to spawn or find food for themselves.

Very inexpensive as it is used to make immatition Crab meat.
OK on it own but there are much better choices
