What is "line" or "troll-caught" salmon and why is it so expensive? Well to put it frankly - it's one of the best quality fish you will find! It's the only way Supper's On will purchase salmon.

Troll-caught salmon are handled one at a time with "kid gloves" by the fishermen who can expect to receive top dollar for their catch. The salmon is immediately bled, cleaned, and iced.

Ancient Aztecs believed chocolate conferred sexual prowess on those that consumed it. They even celebrated the harvest of the cacao bean with festivals of wild orgies. So I wonder is chocolate a food or a passion? A Spanish priest tried to prevent his New World parishioners from drinking chocolate and he was found dead; poisoned the very next day.

Coenzyme Q10 is a substance that is made in the human body and functions like an antioxidant. It’s important because it helps give energy, boost the immune system, and scavenges for free radicals. Our bodies create the coenzyme, and cells use it to produce energy we need for cell growth and maintenance. The highest concentrations of CoQ10 are found in the heart, liver, kidneys, and pancreas. Levels of CoQ10 decrease as we age and it may be low in people with cancer, genetic disorders, diabetes, heart problems, and Parkinson’s disease. You can use supplements to get your CoQ10 or you could eat the food that will convert to CoQ10. A deficiency of CoQ10 include things like heart failure, high blood pressure, fibromyalgia, depression, migraines and chest pain. If you are not...
