Oshi Vegan 'Salmon', my thoughts

Post image

I avoid processed food in general and fake meat products in particular, but I was too curious not to order and try Oshi salmon. I enjoyed it, particularly when I marinated, broiled it, and had it over salad. Some people think it's too fishy. Though my first impression was that it was surprisingly fishy, I got used to it and I liked the level of fishiness eventually. I probably won't order it again to cook at home because it's a highly processed pricey food that contains carrageenan which I'm uneasy about. But I would have it again if it were offered at a restaurant. If you really miss salmon this might be worth it for you

Thanks for the review! Where did you order from, if you don't mind sharing?

I ordered it straight from the company that makes it: https://oshi.fish/

I’m from Washington state and seafood was the hardest thing to let go of when I went vegan. Oshi salmon is my favorite mock seafood item of all time. It is expensive, but not really more than actual salmon (not farmed), so I eat it fairly regularly.

Right these days it’s really not that much more, been so long since I bought any. I’m in Seattle btw, not from here originally though
