What is a Fishwife?

The term "Fishwife" dates back to the 16th century, and originally referred to the daughters or wives of fishermen who sold fish at the market.

The term gradually evolved into gendered insult for women who were brash, foul-mouthed, and brassy. We relate.

Why Tinned Fish?

Responsibly caught or raised seafood is an ethical, healthy, convenient, and delicious choice.

Our rainbow trout, albacore tuna, salmon, and sardines are protein-packed, high in vitamins and minerals and rich in fatty acids.
