I am pleased to announce the addition of a new line from Kanimi. This brand line features Smart Salmon and Crab Smart, two all natural seafood lines.

Smart Salmon is a frozen 6 oz salmon portion that is marinated in three flavors - Hawaiian Huli-Huli Sauce, Ginger Sauce and Kenyan Coffee BBQ Sauce. My favorite is the Kenyan Coffee BBQ Sauce.Smart Salmon features wild Alaskan Sockeye salmon that is caught, processed and frozen in Alaska and then shipped to Seattle where it is portioned, marinated and packaged. Wild Alaskan Sockeye is a certified sustainable fishery by the Marine Stewardship Council. Each entree contains 1500 mg of Omega-3 fatty acids which contribute to heart health, brain function and acts as an anti-inflammatory agent. Vitamin D, the antioxidant astaxanthin and selenium are also found in each entree making them a heart healthy, tasty meal.

Preparing these items couldn't be any easier. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, and microwave for 3 minutes at 50% power. Smart Salmon comes in a special "steam pouch" that makes preparation and cleanup a breeze. No more overcooked, dry salmon these entrees come out moist and tasty each and every time. After placing the salmon on the plate you toss the "steam pouch" in the garbage and clean up is done. The salmon have had the pin bones removed so you don't need to worry about bones in your salmon ever. This method of cooking also eliminates the fishy smell that can overwhelm a kitchen.

Crab Smart Natural is the fastest growing surimi seafood product on the market. Kanimi has removed all the phosphates and sorbitol, artificial flavors and artificial colors from this line of items and replaced all the artificial ingredients with those derived from natural sources, including the red coloring which comes from tomato-based anti-oxidant lycopene. They have increased the amount of Omega 3 fish oil to 350mg for Shrimp Smart and 400 mg for Crab Smart and Lobster Smart - up to 4 times that of the other leading brands. Crab Smart is made from Alaskan Pollock, a wild-caught sustainable species to which real snow crab is added. Crab Smart is available in flake, chunk and stick style. In addition to Crab, Kanimi also has Lobster Smart Natural and Shrimp Smart Natural, which has chemical free cold water shrimp added for flavor and texture. Crab Smart Natural is the wave of the future of surimi seafood.

Surimi is a very versatile item that can be used a salad topping, eaten on a cracker as an appetizer, used as a filling for sandwiches, wraps or burritos. Surimi can also be used for stuffing's for fish, mushroom caps or tomatoes. The Crab Sticks make for a great high protein snack that can be eaten on the go.

The real point of difference of all these items though is the simple fact they taste great!

When we introduced the light bagging option, customers had the option to receive fewer paper bags. At that time, only pantry items were included. But now we are extending the "light" option to include chilled items, which will mean fewer plastic bags as well. To prevent cross-contamination, we will still pack all frozen items, meat, produce, cleaning products, and health and beauty items in thin plastic bags.

An added benefit of light bagging is that we are generally able to put more products in each tote, which means fewer totes per order. Yes, less totes to store!

You can choose light bagging option when you check out an order with Pre-Dawn Delivery or Doorstep Delivery (where you don't have to be home). You can choose to either have "light" or "standard" bagging for your pantry and chilled items. On the order preview page, the option is right below Delivery Instructions and it looks like this:



We continue to look at ways to reduce packaging. Thank you for all your feedback.

Autumn is coming, and with the kid's first day of school right around the corner, we are excited to have added a great new line of time saving and healthy frozen meals from Mom Made Foods - choice organics for children. These meals are perfect for busy families that are looking for a great tasting, healthy meal. We have four varieties available for the little ones which include Broccoli, Sweet Potato, Pear and Apple. We also have four great varieties available for kids of all ages which include Cheesy Mac, Fiesta Rice, Cheese Pizza, and Bean Burrito. Mom Made Meals are not only 100% USDA-certified organic but are also low in fat and sodium, with no added sugar, additives, colors or preservatives.

Heather, the Founder of Mom Made Foods developed this line of healthy organic meals as a result of her passion for fresh, well balanced food. As a full-time working mother she often found it difficult to find the time to prepare foods from scratch and recognized that it was difficult to find any freshly made, healthy store bought alternatives. With the guidance from her brother (a Professional Chef) and support from her family and friends, she created Mom Made Foods - choice organics for children.

In her own words:

"Three years ago, I developed Mom Made Foods to provide organic meal options that kids would love. Exposing children to the flavors and nutritional benefits of organic food is a gift that they will keep with them for a lifetime. Although it may seem difficult, incorporating organic food into children's everyday lives is simple. Mom Made meals are just like those a parent would make in their own kitchen, with the kind of foods that will help young children develop a taste for healthy eating."

Here are a few of her pointers to start your kids on the road to healthy eating:

*It's never too early to start
Children develop their palates more from birth to age two than at any other time of their life. Start introducing organics as young as possible, but also know that it's never too late to adopt an organic lifestyle.

*Prioritize an organic grocery list
Keep the Environmental Working Group's "dirty dozen" list in mind regarding foods that rank highest and lowest in pesticides.

*Be a good role model
Share meals as a family and remember that kids are exploring the world of food and watching you. They may need multiple introductions to certain foods before "learning to" like them.

*Respect their decisions
Children have an innate understanding of when they're full. Never force food or bribe kids to eat.

*Involve your children
Plant a garden together. At the store, encourage them to participate in the selection of fresh produce and involve them in food preparation at home.

*Organic can be convenient too
There are times when we need to rely on prepared food. Make sure to read labels. Frozen organics are better for you than shelf products. This is true for veggies, baby food, and prepared meals.

Until recently we offered the option to pickup totes the next time we
were in your neighborhood. Our hope was that this would be an
environmentally friendly and economical way to get your totes
collected. Unfortunately we found that to keep up with requests we had
to send drivers out on separate trips just to collect totes. This
wasn't good for the environment and resulted in costs we would have
eventually had to pass on to you, our customer. For this reason, the
option to have your totes collected next time we are in your
neighborhood will no longer be available.

For more urgent tote pickups (formerly "as soon as possible"), if you
spend over $125 on that order, we will collect your totes within four
days rather than the previously promised next-day service. By doing
this, we will be able to make more delivery times available because
our trucks won't be making special trips just to pick up totes.

If you do not want or cannot have totes on at your house for up to four
days, we encourage you to use our attended delivery option. Attended
deliveries are made within 1-hour delivery windows and we bring your
groceries right to your kitchen-no totes are left behind.

Thank you for your patience as we work to improve our service for the
Puget Sound. And thank you for shopping with AmazonFresh.

We're excited to add 98059 to our delivery area. You will be able to place your orders today. The first deliveries will begin on Tuesday.

Welcome to the AmazonFresh family. We look forward to serving you!
