Clams, Crab, Oysters and Shrimp! Oh My!

While the Chicken of the Sea brand name comes from a nickname fisherman had for albacore tuna at the beginning of the 20th century, the company offers other seafood options in addition to tuna. In fact, Chicken of the Sea is a leading supplier of specialty seafood, such as clams, crab, oysters and shrimp.

“In the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, the U.S. Department of Agriculture recommends that Americans eat at least 8 ounces of seafood a week,” said registered dietician Sharon McNerney. “This recommendation is also backed by leading health authorities, such as the American Heart Association, American Diabetes Association and the American Medical Association. An easy way for people to make sure they meet the recommended amount is to mix it up by eating a variety of seafood.”
