Eat Green • Live Green: MSC-certified Seafood

By supporting sustainable and eco-friendly seafood fishing practices, the impact on the environment during food handling processes can be minimised. city'super has sourced a range of MSC-certified seafood to help you live green.

Why pick MSC-certified seafood?
MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) is an international non-profit organisation that recognises and rewards efforts to protect oceans and safeguard the current seafood supplies and that for the future.

The blue MSC label is given to seafood that is wild, traceable, sustainable, and from fisheries that have been certified to meet the MSC Fisheries Standard, a science-based set of requirements for sustainable fishing.

Choosing MSC-certified seafood helps leave enough fish in the ocean, keeps the habitats thriving, and ensures people who depend on fishing can maintain their livelihoods.

MSC-certified Seafood Recommendations:

South West Octopus Australian Frozen Wild Caught Octopus (MSC)
Sustainably wild ocean caught off the shores of Busselton in Western Australia. Snap frozen to ensure freshness with superior taste and ready to cook. Carbon neutral-certified under the Australian Government Carbon Neutral Programme.

Karumba Australian Frozen Wild Banana Prawn (MSC)
Wild-caught in the Gulf of Carpentaria in Northern Queensland, Australia. Carbon neutral-certified under the Australian Government Carbon Neutral Programme.

Eat Green: Let’s Go Meatless!

With plant-based and “future” meat taking the world by storm, are you ready to join Team Eat Green to help reduce carbon footprint and lessen the impact on animals and the environment while staying healthy?

A bit about Plant-Based Meat:
Plant-based meat has a texture and flavour so similar to meat that a lot of people can’t tell the difference. In general, food scientists extract the protein from plant sources like soybeans and peas, which is then heated, pressed and cooled to recreate the real meat texture. Some plant-based meat products are even added with beetroot juice and coconut oil to imitate blood and simulate meat fat respectively.

Plant-Based Meat Recommendations:

Marukome Daizu Labo Dried Soy Meat (Fillet)

Unseasoned soy meat that can be soaked in water and then used in various cuisines and dishes.

Marukome Daizu Labo Ready To Use Soy Meat (Fillet)

No need to first soak in water. Simply remove from packaging and use with other ingredients in your cooking. Great for extra busy folks.

Impossible Beef Made From Plants

Added with soy leghemoglobin so the colour and flavour are more similar to real beef. Season accordingly to create Chinese, Japanese, Western-style cuisines and more.
