Tell me more about your sustainably sourced seafood.

We source all our seafood based on the Australian Marine Conservation Societies (AMCS) “Australia’s Sustainable Seafood Guide.” Our seafood suppliers also provide us with certification of their sustainability practices. We currently use KING (Chinook) SALMON - from New Zealand a better choice for sustainability as rated on the Australian Marine Conservation Societies (AMCS)“Australia’s Sustainable Seafood Guide."

Why is KING SALMON (Chinook) so good?

Our King Salmon has the highest oil content of all salmon giving it a wonderful rich flavour and delicate texture. King Salmon is a rich natural source of high-quality long chain OMEGA-3 Oils, which has widely documented health benefits, such as aiding heart and joint health, brain development and helps to boost the immune system. Salmon is also a high-quality source of PROTEIN which plays a number of important roles in the body, including helping your body heal after injury, protecting bone health and maintaining muscle mass during weight loss.

Quality

Are there any artificial preservatives in Natures Catch and Samurai Sam Meals?

No. We are committed to avoiding the use of any artificial preservatives, flavourings and colourings in our products.

Can Natures Catch and Samurai Sam Meals be Frozen?

Our meals are made using fresh ingredients and are then chilled not frozen to give you the best possible eating experience. We suggest that freezing be avoided, as the meals are produced in a chilled environment.

How long will my meals last for?

Natures Catch meals have a shelf life of 11 days and Samurai Sam 10 days from production if kept chilled at less than 4C. All our meals carry a USE BY DATE stamp and we recommend they are eaten on or before this date.

How do you keep your meals so fresh?

Before we seal each meal for you, we flush the air out with a natural sterile gas to remove the oxygen. This keeps each meal as fresh as possible without the use of any artificial preservatives or additives. Then to ensure they stay chilled when we send them to you, we use special chilled boxes with thermal cooling liners and gel freezer pack, that are transported by our fleet of refrigerated vans.

How does the VACUM SEAL work?

The Vacuum Seal packaging seals the contents from the air and helps to maintain its freshness as well as hold all the contents in place so they aren’t damaged in transit. For Natures Catch Microwavable meals there is no need to remove or pierce the seal before microwaving. The seal will balloon up during heating which aids in the even cooking of the meal. Cooking Instructions can be found on pack.
