🌱 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.

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.
🥗 Recipe (English Version)：
Steamed Scallops with Garlic Vermicelli. Restaurants often drizzle the scallops with cooked oil, but this simple recipe doesn't require that. Simply sauté garlic and chili peppers until fragrant, then add seasonings to create a sauce. Adding both raw and cooked garlic enhances the color and aroma, making it even more delicious!

The vermicelli soaks up the sauce and scallop juices, creating a delicious flavor that's a must-try. The vermicelli should be soaked in clean water to soften, otherwise they will become dry and tough. If you want them to soften faster, you can soak them in warm water. This dish is easy to prepare, but cleaning the scallops can be a bit tricky. It's recommended to have the seafood stall owner open the scallops for you, saving you the trouble. After returning home, carefully remove the internal organs and rinse thoroughly. Since each household's stove is different, the steaming time should be adjusted according to the size of the scallops and the heat. Be sure not to overcook, as this will ruin the chewy, sweet scallops!
Health Tips:
Vermicelli noodles have a high water absorption capacity and a low glycemic index, making them lower in calories than white rice.

🥘 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.
