This year's US Alaska pollock surimi output is supposed to be the largest in history, putting a product form once seen as a mere byproduct of roe production in the spotlight.
"There may be an overweight on surimi inventory at the end of the year," said Mark JoHahnson, president of Maruha Nichiro's Westward Seafoods, at the Surimi Forum in Astoria, Oregon, this week.
Behind the hike: the total allowable catch (TAC) for both Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands (BSAI) pollock and Gulf of Alaska pollock jumped from 2015 to this year, by 2.3
