    Is this the 5 /6 pack that is constantly on "half-price"?

    I wouldn't say watery but I only bought it once and wouldn't by it again.

    Not very good. Many more bones than regular salmon. Makes it hard to eat.
  • I tried this and agree with compmad1 that it was very boney. I wouldn't buy it again and in fact have a packet in the freezer that I have had for ages. It will probably end up as fish pie so I can take all the bones out first.

    Tried it once and didn't like the taste at all, and I'm FAR from fussy.

    I didn't like it at all. To me it tasted quite strong and portions are small so not great value. I much prefer to buy a whole fresh one when on offer and cut it up and freeze it myself!:)

    I agree. Bought once, never again. Rubbish!

    Aldi do some nice Alaskan salmon fillets, I have never found then watery but then I always seem to overcook. My DS has had salmon risotto made with it since being about a year old x

    I bought it once but not again.

    Buy the 4-packs from Iceland. Sometimes they do 5-packs for the same price. £6 now?
