A perfect fork for canned fish

Beautiful and functional. If you're looking for a fork that leans more toward scooping than stabbing, this is a well made, sturdy piece of art. Was so happy to see this restocked!

Two hands hold slices of bread topped with creamy spread, garnished with round cucumber slices and vibrant purple edible flowers. The background features a natural setting with greenery, creating a fresh and inviting atmosphere.

Why Kelp?

Kelp is Nutritious & Delicious

It's salty, savory, crisp, and full of vitamins, minerals, and iodine. Kelp makes foods taste richer, imparting a subtle savory flavor known as “umami”.

Dive Into Our Ingredients

You’re probably thinking, kelp? Like, seaweed? Yes!

Two fishermen are on a small boat in calm waters, gathering seaweed as misty mountains rise in the background. The scene is serene, with clear blue skies and gentle waves, highlighting the natural beauty of the coastal environment.
A dense mass of brown seaweed hangs over the waters edge, gently swaying with the movement of the water.
A person wearing brown overalls stands by the water, holding a long, curved piece of kelp in one hand and a bundle of bright yellow seaweed in the other. The backdrop features a serene ocean and distant hills under a partly cloudy sky.
