AlphaCanadian Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I have only seen canned salmon at Foodland (and only at one location). At 150 baht a can it is a little pricey. I can also order canned salmon online from Iherb but it is also pricy. Where can I get canned salmon in Bangkok at a reasonable price? Thanks in advance.

bkk6060 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 What is reasonable? What you are seeing is it not a high demand product... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thian Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Canned salmon is very hard to get...even ikea doesn't have it...they have smoked and frozen salmon though. Best is to buy fresh salmon which comes in many different prices and qualities. Sometimes the CP-freshmarkets have promotion on frozen salmon, pay 2 get 3 packs...

I wouldn't be surprised if there are Thai who eat that...they eat every piece of a salmon and also potato... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thainess Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Canned salmon is rubbish and toxic. Avoid it like the plague. As you should with all 'farmed' salmon. You should only ever eat wild Pacific salmon that isn't contaminated with radionuclides from Fukushima, and that's extremely hard to get and super-expensive. My advice: stick to sardines, they're supercheap and safe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Bangkok I pay over double that for Makro's frozen farmed salmon. How much is the IKEA frozen salmon in Thailand? The 'fresh' salmon is not really fresh, just defrosted, cut up and left to go slowly rotten in store. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sell 'Norwegian salmon' in Gourmet Market for about 1500/KG. There's a couple of others which go up in price to about 2500/KG. They're slightly different in colour but taste about the same to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well at IKEA thailand everything costs about double compared to europe, but your steaks are very small with 80 grams...i thought i had seen 4 frozen ikea salmonsteaks for 600 baht....but they are larger i guess. Salmon costs much more this year, about 30% more than last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An 80 gram fish steak sounds more like 'fish fingers' to me. Edited August 2, 2018 by ukrules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canned Pacific salmon is made from wild fish it's Atlantic salmon that is farmed,canned salmon used to be considered as nutritious as fresh.Do the can farmed salmon?

Canned salmon fresh? Not even when it goes into the can, let alone when you eat it months later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
