Mussel Profile
PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND MUSSELS: PEI Mussels are rope-grown in the pristine cold waters of Prince Edward Island, Canada. and only fed by mother nature. PEI Mussels have a distinctive rich, sweet taste (like a blend of oysters & clams). They can be steamed easily with a mix of garlic & wine for a lovely dish.
SALT SPRING ISLAND MUSSELS: This unique hybrid brings together the superior taste of the Med. mussel, with the delicate texture of the P.E.I. mussel. The plump meat is sweet and fills the shell almost entirely.
HONEY MUSSELS: Locally raised in a pristine Lagoon located on a small island off the coast called Lasqueti Island. These Canadian mussels are packed with nutrition from omega 3 fatty acids, iron , B12 , Zinc and protein. Honey Mussels are developed through a 100% natural selective breeding process. These Honey Mussels come come from a hard working family run business. Their distinct sweet-smoky flavor and tender plump texture can be eaten guilt free.
