I'm reviewing this product because I got a free sample from Ocado. It was very convenient and tasted OK. Nothing amazing about it, but decent quality. A lot of packaging for not a lot of fish, so I'm not sure it's worth the full price, but can't fault it otherwise. Just add lemon and possibly capers and enjoy however you like.

Got sent this to review. On the plus side it's a decent portion, tastes reasonable, and I can see it would be convenient to take to work for lunch or something. However, really, it tastes very similar to canned tuna, but is much more expensive. I'm also not keen on the plastic. While in theory it's recyclable, most plastic in the UK doesn't actually end up getting recycled even if it can be, so I'd rather stick to cans of tuna, as it's cheaper and cans have a much better track record for recycling.

Not as good as the bigger tins purported to be the same product. The salmon in these smaller ones are certainly not 'no drain' nor pink. Mushy,lacking taste. Not good from this brand at all. Better off with tuna.

I bought this to make salmon fishcakes for my eleven-month-old son, but I wish I'd read the reviews first. Don't mind sifting through to pick out the smaller bones, but this had hunners of huge, circular bones (vertebrae?) and god knows what else, and I ended up throwing away almost half the can.
This used to be a cupboard staple for me. And it will be again. I'd forgotten how useful a decent tin of salmon can be - it had arrived as a Star Reviewer offer. In this case, my sister - who's pretty picky - arrived and said no to lamb saddle. The best cut you can buy. Well, I ask you, what?s a gal to do? Thinking quickly, I turned myself around and knocked up a quick pasta for lunch with Ocado?s John West pink salmon. Firstly, cook some decent pasta to the al dente stage in plenty of boiling water and a dash of Himalayan salt (lots of minerals). Add the drained salmon to another pot and gently stir in lemon zest from half a big lemon, 250mls of fresh chicken stock and about the same of double cream. Plate it up with parsley or chives snipped on top. It went down ... MoreThis used to be a cupboard staple for me. And it will be again.

I'd have given 5 stars if it had been responsibily sourced.
"Continually Ensuring the Highest Quality Pink Salmon", they say....not anymore. Horrible brown and bitty with an unusually high volume of spine bones and pin bones - very substandard. My normal two-ingredient Salman mayo was a very discoloured murky khaki beige and gritty! I am happy with the usual amount of bones and have been buying this for years for that very reason, but this went to a whole new level. It should be described as Bones with a Splash of Salmon. If the reviews are consistently mentioning a change to the quality, then there is cause for concern. My question is who is responsible for down-voting all the honest reviews?! Does it REALLY sound like the work of paying customers??
I was given this to try and review for Ocado. I am giving it 4 stars as it is very expensive for a small tub of pink salmon, hence the loss of a star. Otherwise, it is pretty good chunky pieces of salmon. The advantages are that it would be easier than a tin for some people to open; nice and small to take for a packed lunch, so it would be easier than a tin if you wanted to decant it at the last moment; it is skinless and boneless - so it is all good salmon; there is only a little bit of liquid in the tub, so you can add whatever you want to "liven it up" to your taste. Two of us shared the tub with a little green salad and potato salad, which was a nice lunch for 2.
unlike all the people who are complaining about the bones who should buy skinless and boneless salmon, this is great if you know what you're buying. the canning process makes the bones super soft so you don't need to remove them. just mash up and enjoy.
So this is a tin of nostalgia* for me. Im old enough to remember regular tinned salmon sandwiches from a child and that real salmon was a once-a-year luxury at much greater cost. I note that the price of fresh salmon fillets when on offer (as right now on Ocado circa ?13.50 per kilo) can be less than the 15.50 per kilo price of this tinned stuff. Admittedly for the tin its weight is after being cooked rather than the wet fresh salmon weight, but as a value proposition the presence of bones and skin in this tin is surely wrong in this day and age! (And my wife will therefore not eat, and she is not a fussy fish eater) However for me the skin and in particular the crunchy bones are part of the nostalgia, so Ill continue to buy the odd tin on offer!
Absolutely rancid, smells spoilt and so stinky, inedible. It contained some really big chunks of bone and lots of skin. Took me at least 15min to sort through and pick out the flesh. Will not be buying again.
