“National Salmon Day” has been christened an official holiday dedicated to celebrating the health, taste, convenience and diverse recipe benefits of the world’s most popular pink fish. Starting this year, the day will be marked annually on Oct. 8 in honor of both wild and packaged salmon.    

Chicken of the Sea, a leading provider of healthy, sustainable seafood and  an industry pioneer in packaged salmon, proposed the holiday as a public service to remind Americans of the significant health and wellness   advantages of the fish.    

 “Now, more than ever, Americans need a high-protein, high-omega-3 food  that offers such universal taste and recipe-development appeal, the   public doesn’t recognize it as a healthy option,” explained Maureen McDonnell, Chicken of the Sea’s Director of Brand Marketing and Category Management. “National Salmon Day was created by Chicken of the Sea as an  annual reminder of the essential nutritional benefits that packaged and wild salmon brings to the table.”    

 “Our ultimate goal is to celebrate National Salmon Day in 2015 and in future years in such a way that it increases consumption of the fish  leading to a long-term increase in America’s heart and nutritional  health.”
