oh no! I didn't know about the preservatives. The one I got is fresh and not the frozen kind. I wash it before I feed it to my nem and give only half. My lobster loves it too and thankfully, no one died so far. I better stop feeding it to them.

Check the label, or ask the butcher. Not all of them have preservatives.
