U.S. wild-caught fish is available year-round, making it a great option for anyone looking to eat more fish. Thanks to the high quality of domestic swordfish, you’re also likely to find it listed on the menu at your favorite seafood restaurant.
And for those concerned about the environmental impact of eating swordfish, rest assured. This unmistakable species has been sustainably managed in U.S. waters for decades.
