Don’t forget the fjord shrimp…

We love selling fjord shrimp so much here at the Kaj that we think you should keep them on the menu all the way through to September 1st. That’s how long the fjord shrimp season actually lasts.

They don’t have some secret “under-the-table deal” with the asparagus to disappear by Midsummer’s Eve – so we truly hope you’ll stick with these tasty little beauties all summer long.

MAP dreams postponed… for now

Unfortunately, this wasn’t the year we managed to crack the code on MAP packaging for fjord shrimp with a 30-day shelf life. The partner we had lined up for the project gave it their best shot – but in the end, it was just too much to handle.

Still not giving up!

But we’re not giving up that easily. We’re continuing to work on making this project a reality – because it has the potential to swap out one of the most CO₂-heavy and biodiversity-damaging products we sell… with one of the least. A pure win–win, once it comes together.

That said, launching a new, sustainable alternative in an industry deeply tied to cheap, trawl-caught shrimp from the Skagerrak or North Atlantic is no small feat.

And sadly, there’s still no price tag on destroying the ecosystems in our shared ocean.

And it’ll likely be a while before there is.
