That's a bit weird. What was she eating before?
By the way, I don't think forcing a turtle is a good idea. I think you should try to entice eating.

putting salmon on commercial food didn't work!

It just took the salmon off, and ate it...

Maybe soak some of the pellets in the water packed with the salmon, but exclude the salmon when feeding her.
