ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. — October is always eagerly anticipated at SeaPak Shrimp & Seafood Co. It's when National Seafood Month rolls around, providing an opportunity to draw attention to the importance of making smart mealtime choices and to the benefits of a diet rich in seafood.
Staying true to form this National Seafood Month, SeaPak is highlighting ways consumers can make an average dinner simply "Shrimptacular," while delivering the message about seafood's healthful aspects.
Shrimp reigns supreme as America's #1 seafood and, when compared to other sources of protein (such as chicken), this versatile and affordable seafood offers a healthier and leaner alternative.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Department of Agriculture recommends that people eat at least two servings of seafood each week. However, the average American consumes less than one serving a week, so there's still ample room for improvement.
"For this year's National Seafood Month, SeaPak is focusing not only on quick and easy meal solutions, but also on the benefits of having a diet rich in seafood," explained Daryl Miller, Director of Marketing, SeaPak Shrimp & Seafood Co.
"Throughout October, we're encouraging consumers – both SeaPak loyalists and those new to the brand – to visit the frozen seafood section for their mealtime solutions, and to visit us online to understand more about the advantages of seafood," continued Miller. "'Shrimptacular also the perfect time to discover how SeaPak is committed to making life for consumers a little more coastal, by sharing with them the best tastes and experiences of coastal living."
