The part that changes the math
Nearly every "fresh" fillet was already frozen.
Most fish at a supermarket counter was frozen at sea, then thawed for display. It's been breaking down since the moment it thawed, and it doesn't refreeze well.
Ours has never been frozen. It's cut the morning it ships and lands at your door on ice, within 24-48 hours.
So you decide. Cook what you want this week and freeze the rest at its peak — prioritize quality over quantity!
Supermarket
Frozen at sea → thawed for display → short shelf life
Frozen aisle
Frozen at sea, often glazed with water, months old by the time it reaches you
OceanBox
Off the boat → cut to order → at your door in 48 hours, never frozen → you freeze it at peak
