The use of Tripoliphosphate in their foods to make them plumper and weigh more are a total deal-breaker.
I guess they don't realize that people can just Google ingredients. They can piss off in my book until they change their dishonest practices. Tripoliphosphate is definitely not healthy to ingest and contrary to what the FDA terms is "generally safe". As a matter of fact, any ingredients label with "phates" in it are to be strongly avoided. For them to make a few extra pennies by plumping up their foods so they can charge more weight-wise is so short sighted. Guaranteed they're losing more money by people avoiding their products by just looking up on the Internet ingredients. Fricking idiotic.
It's no different than going to the butcher or fish store and the owner putting their finger on the scale! It's actually worse than that because instead of a finger, they're using a very unhealthy chemical! Totally egregious.
Awsome packages red white and blue. In the fine print Products of China. Never again
Thank U Audra.
U informed the drivers for the wrong address. Though it is only next door if I didn’t read ur comments I could be late for my delivery…
The Receiver Lady was good with me. And she was helping others too.

Great place to pickup. Very nice and professional security guard and shipping office. It is absolutely by appointment only to pickup.
Address is wrong...it's not the first location it is right next door 20704..arrived at 640 waited till 7 next door told me they didn't open till 8 ...and it looks like they are next door so it's was confusing...I decided to check the next entrance after waiting till 730 just to see and it was the right location now I'm late for appt. Guard was nice plenty of room to get to a door...other problem is lady that answers the door is rude...I pushed the button to confirm I'm ready...no one answers I push it again after 5 mins and the lady comes out the door and just stares at you...I was like I have a delivery and she's was like you well fill out the 2 papers and I was like I did. She then said well I need the small one...like if I know what I'm doing first time here and they expect you to know ...
So I see there’s not a lot of comments from a Truck driver’s perspective. Let me offer my experience here.1) if you arrive around 23:00ish to 04:00 you can find parking on the street on Fordyce Ave. If you get here after everyone has started going to work , there will be cars parked along the street and you won’t be able to park.2) The procedure for check in ;a) walk in the gate and go to the guard shack on your left at the gate entrance.b) listen closely and follow instructions and you won’t have any problems.c) Have your License Plates (truck & trailer) and I.D. with you.I had an 08:00 appointment. Was checked in and in a door @ 07:30.The time is currently 08:40 and they have been unloading me for about 15-20 minutes.The only real downfall I’ve found is if you have to go to dock doors 13 or 14 because you have to back through the employee parking lot to get to those doors.Fortunately for me , I got assigned to Door 12.Overall not a bad experience at all.
Waiting 4 to 6 hours bathroom next to door 5
The fish is imported from outside the U.S.! why don’t you use America’s fisheries?

So I decided to include fish on Thanksgiving and to my surprise, I see one of the packs of tilapia fillets that looks as if a parasite is living inside underneath the frozen fish. they say one bad apple spoils the bunch. I don't want to cook the others because of this one fillet. ? ????
Good workplace, employs a lot of staff to work and the supervisors and managers are very friendly and the product is of good quality ??
I bought 5 bags of skinlesd catfish nuggets for a fish fry. Not paying any attention rushing to get it seasoned and deep fried. Only 33 pieces were edible all the rest had tough thick white skin that you can not chew unless you had shark teeth. Ruined my whole fish fry. Nobody want tilapia...
I am disappointed because I bought farm-raised Alaskan salmon it's supposed to be eight servings per bag, its only 5 for 21 dollars from Kroger ??? NEVER WILL BUY AGAIN. Worst part about it is the picture on the internet, sales paper, and instacart app has 8 fillets in the picture DO NOT BUY!!!! RIP OFF!!!!
