RTE meal convenience 

Sustainably-sourced seafood pioneer Wild Planet has added a new product to its ready-to-eat (RTE) lineup.

Wild Tuna Quinoa Salad Ready-To-Eat Meal, which comes in a 5.6oz Bowl, is one of five new Wild Planet products now selling at Whole Foods Market stores.

The product features only tuna caught using 100% pole-and-line or troll-caught methods, which only catch smaller migratory tuna lower in mercury, according to Wild Planet.

Ingredients include skipjack tuna; organic quinoa, sunflower oil, red pepper, yellow pepper, carrot, zucchini, peas, sweetcorn and green olive, ground black pepper, curcuma; and salt.

“We’re pleased to introduce new Wild Planet products to Whole Foods shoppers nationwide who are making more of a conscious effort to shop with sustainability in mind,” said Bill Carvalho, president and founder of Wild Planet Foods. “Since the company’s inception, it has been our goal to spread awareness about the importance of knowing where your seafood comes from and the nutritional value canned seafood can provide, all while making it more accessible to consumers. This launch builds further on our realization of this goal, and we are excited to offer new, high-quality options that Whole Foods customers are going to enjoy.”
