Product DistinctionsROMA LOLIGO PEALEII
SQUID
This product is caught in
Rhode Island and then
fully cleaned (no fins.) It is
packed to 100% net deglazed
weight, which means there
is no water added to bring
product up to net weight. It
consistently outperforms other
calamari brands on taste and
tenderness. Chefs consistently
pick this item in side by side
taste tests. This product is
popular among operators due
to its domestic origin. This
particular feature proves to
increase sales volume as more
of the population chooses to
“buy American.”
ROMA ASIAN LOLIGO
SQUID
This product is fully cleaned (no
fins) and packed to 100% net
deglazed weight, which means
there is no water added to bring
product up to net weight. It
consistently outperforms other
calamari brands on taste and
tenderness. The quality rivals
the Domestic Calamari without
the higher cost. It is a great
alternative when the chef wants
to upgrade quality without
paying a much higher price.
LUIGI
The Luigi product is Todarodes squid, (also known as
Japanese Flying Squid.) The Luigi label is fully cleaned
with the fins removed. It is also packed to 100% net
deglazed weight, which means no water added to bring
product up to net weight. Todarodes squid is slightly wider
and thicker than loligo squid, which gives the operator
a wide ring for great plate coverage. It is a very tender
calamari that out-cuts most of the other Todarodes squid on
the market. It is a great value-priced item that can often save
the restaurant money without sacrificing quality.
ASSOLUTI
Assoluti branded squid
is traditionally cleaned
calamari with the fins on.
It is priced to compete
against the other brands of
imported loligo squid found
throughout the country.
This brand is 100% net
weight, with no water
or fillers added to bring
product up to net weight.
Comparisons often show
that using the Assoluti
brand will be a much
better value than a similar
imported Loligo squid.
