🌱 Producer Introduction：
♥️ Healthy Express is my way of helping two groups of people: new arrivals and interested locals who, like me, had no clue where to find ingredients, what local produce existed, where to get specialty food items, etc.; and secondly, farmers, market vendors, retailers, who had the foresight to seek out the best the products has to offer and take the risk of selling these to nutcases like myself. ♥️ Healthy Express is also my reason to overspend and overbuy every time I am in a market or food store with the excuse that it is just part of my “research budget.”

About Us
Feed You Healthy is an experienced fresh fruit and vegetable consultant who loves shopping, cooking and tasting delicious food. I have been fortunate enough to dine at some amazing restaurants around the world and shop at many spectacular markets and food stores. I love to cook and entertain at home, but I don’t have any formal training—my knife skills are mediocre, but I do learn from master chefs here and there. Food is just a personal preference.
I was born in Yuen Long, Hong Kong, and grew up in Hong Kong. After years of hard work, I was admitted to university and then to the Graduate School of HKUST. For more than a decade, I worked in IT for companies and banks, first as a technology consultant, and in my younger years I traveled all over Africa, Asia, Australia, and sometimes even to China. Now running the Food for You Healthy online store, what annoys me the most is people who lack logic and rationality... but the second thing that annoys me is having to run to a dozen local stores, markets, grocery stores, etc. to find the ingredients our customers need.
The lack of selection, inventory and consistency in produce, meats and dry goods was frustrating, but we learned to adapt. Over the past few years, the food options we have available have increased dramatically, and I have begun to experiment with some lesser-known sources to contact my own suppliers. I learn something every week, and now I find myself learning and being exposed to something new almost every day, which I sincerely share with customers who ask for it.

🛍 Product Information (Main) (English)：
Trypauchen vagina, commonly known as the burrowing goby, is a species of eel goby found in the Indo-Pacific region. It has an elongated body about 20 to 22 cm (7.9 to 8.7 in) in length. It is reddish-pink in color and possesses distinctive pouches in the upper edges of its gill covers. It lives in burrows in the silty and muddy bottoms of its marine and brackish habitats. It has reduced eyes that are entirely covered with skin and the anterior portion of its head is protected by thick flesh. Both adaptations aid it in digging its burrows.
The comb goby (Paratrypauchen microcephalus) is a species of goby native to marine and brackish waters of the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean. This species occurs mostly on muddy substrates near mangrove forests. This species grows to a length of 18 centimetres (7.1 in) TL. This species is of minor importance to local commercial fisheries and can also be found in the aquarium trade. This species is the only known member of its genus.[2] Paratrypauchen microcephalus has been recorded from areas which have soft, muddy bottoms, in estuaries and around the mouths of rivers near mangroves where they inhabit deep burrows in the mud. It is not known if they excavate the burrows themselves. This species feeds on benthic invertebrates such as crustaceans.[1]
In the Hong Kong, Macau, and Zhuhai areas, there is a type of fish with an unusual appearance that is sold alive in markets. It's rarely seen in Taiwan, but it's a delicacy in Hong Kong and Macau, and can be prepared in many ways, including steaming, resulting in a very delicious dish.
Characteristics:
Appearance: The fish has a slender body, with eyes that are degenerate and hidden under the skin. It has an obliquely slit mouth, and its pelvic fins are fused into suckers.
Body Color: Dark red or purplish-red.
Flesh Texture: The flesh is relatively coarse, making it suitable for soups, which better releases its nutrients.
Cooking Methods
Soup Making: The most common cooking method is soup making, which can be paired with various ingredients, such as:
* Red snapper, green papaya, and red-skinned peanut soup: This soup has skin-beautifying, spleen-strengthening, stomach-nourishing, blood-tonifying, and lactation-promoting effects.
* Red snapper, tomato, and potato soup: This soup is delicious and nutritious.
Key Points of Preparation:
* Clean the red snapper thoroughly (remove head and internal organs) and pat dry.
* Pan-fry the fish in a little oil until golden brown on both sides; this effectively removes the fishy smell and enhances the sweetness of the soup.
* Place the pan-fried fish and other ingredients in a pot, add boiling water, bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer.
* Season with a little salt to taste at the end.

WWF Seafood Selection Guide WWFシーフードセレクションガイド
Whether it is wild-caught or farmed seafood, as long as it can meet our dietary needs without harming the future of the marine ecosystem, it is considered environmentally friendly seafood. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has been promoting environmentally friendly seafood and launched the Seafood Selection Guide to encourage the public and the industry to choose environmentally friendly seafood on the green and yellow lists to contribute to the conservation of marine resources.
Red, yellow, green, big and small. There are so many different types of seafood and fish in the wet market, how do you choose right? Check out our video to find tips for your next seafood shopping mission!
Important Notes:
- Do note that weight range provided is before any descaling, de-gutting and cleaning of the fish. The whole fish will belong to you - inclusive of fish bone, fish head, and all the meat!
- Selecting fillet means that we will fillet and portion the fish, and pack them individually. The fish head will be cut in half. We will return you the big bones which can be use to make fish bone broth.
- Selecting steak cut means that we will chop the fish into appropriate size of steaks. The fish head will be cut in half.
Do note that prices are estimated and may be subjected to refunds/top-ups since sizes vary as they are wild-caught.

🥘 Seafood Selection Guide 🐠
When choosing seafood, you can refer to the Seafood Selection Guide developed by WWF Hong Kong, which divides seafood into three categories: "Green - First Choice", "Yellow - Second Choice" and "Red - Avoid" to make more environmentally friendly choices. The guide covers more than 70 common seafood species in Hong Kong.
Here are some general guidelines for choosing seafood:
Choose sustainable fishery products:
Prefer seafood that has been certified by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC), which means that the seafood comes from sustainable fisheries.
Understand the source of seafood:
Try to choose local catches as they have a shorter transportation distance and a lower carbon footprint. Avoid overfished species such as certain large fish and deep-sea fish.
Pay attention to seasonality:
Some seafood has a spawning period, and fishing during the spawning period will affect its population, so try to avoid it. Check the seafood season and choose the right seasonal seafood.
Reduce the consumption of large fish:
Large fish are usually at the top of the food chain, and may accumulate more pollutants in their bodies. It also takes longer to mature and reproduce, so try to reduce their consumption.
Avoid eating endangered species:
Some seafood species have been listed as endangered species, such as humphead wrasse and shark fin, and should be avoided to protect their ecological environment.
Check the farming methods of seafood:
If you choose farmed seafood, you should understand whether its farming methods have an impact on the environment, such as whether drugs or feed are used to pollute the water source.
Reduce the consumption of shark fins:
The fishing of shark fins poses a huge threat to shark populations, and shark fins should be avoided to protect the marine ecology.
In summary, when choosing seafood, the following factors should be considered:
Sustainability: Choose certified sustainable fishery products.
Source: Understand the source of seafood and choose seafood that is locally caught or sustainably farmed.
Seasonality: Choose seafood in season and avoid fishing during the spawning period.
Species: Avoid eating large fish and endangered species.
Farming methods: Understand the way seafood is farmed and choose environmentally friendly farming methods.
