            Williwaw Salmon Skin Cracklets: A Product Born Out Of Friendship

              Talk about having some skin in the game. What started as a pleasure fishing trip spawned into a business. Chilian company Williwaw wants you to know that eating salmon skin is a healthy choice. As most North Americans know, salmon is a well-known source of necessary nutrients for our bodies. Did you the skin that most of us discard is just as healthy? The Chilian company has turned salmon skin into healthy crackers that they call Salmon Skin Cracklets. The Keto-friendly product is a no-brainer for health enthusiasts. On the other hand, convincing people to eat fish skin is a hard sell.
