What it is
Cod fillets are cuts of meat from cod fish, a common type of saltwater fish found in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. The fillets are typically boneless and skinless portions of the fish.
Why it's used
Cod fillets are used in packaged foods primarily as a source of protein and for their mild flavor and flaky texture. They are commonly found in frozen fish and seafood products, prepared fish dishes, and sometimes in fish-based ready meals.
Health notes
Cod fillets are a whole food and not a food additive, so they are not subject to FDA approval as an additive. They are recognized as a good source of lean protein and omega-3 fatty acids. The FDA monitors fish for contaminants like mercury, but cod is generally considered a low-mercury fish.
Allergen info
Fish is one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA. Individuals with a fish allergy should avoid cod fillets and products containing them.
