I have a can of Samoan tuna - Van Camp Wahoo. Those guys in Samoa just love
the stuff. There used to be a cannery in Samoa that processed the fish. The
last I heard, it closed down. It's some kind of secret just where this fish
comes from and where it's being processed at the moment. The can doesn't
give a clue. Maybe it's better not to know... I don't particularly care for
the stuff because it reminds me of albacore. You can get it on Amazon for
around 10 bucks a can but why would you?

If it is really good and would be popular, I suspect the cannery might be
interested in a good market

Nothing. My SO occasionally uses it for a sandwich spread. Drained
canned tuna, chopped onion, celery, mayonnaise.

Personally I can't stand canned tuna. I couldn't even get my cat Persia
to eat canned tuna after the veterinarian suggested I hide a pill in it.
LOL She sniffed, looked at me like I was crazy and walked off.

May I ask what prompted you to buy a can of tuna?

I didn't! It was in my husband's pack.

As far as I know, you have to be Samoan to love it. That's the way the cookie crumbles.

OTOH, we eat a crapload of tuna. We got that stuff coming out of our gills. My guess is that we eat more tuna than the rest of the US. Yesterday our lunch was spicy ahi poke and spicy ahi katsu. I suppose you could say that ahi katsu is similar to your country's fish and chips. That is, if your fish was tuna and it was chopped up and slathered with spicy sauce and furikake and instead of chips you had a couple of scoops of rice. Hee hee

I remember the first time I had that dish. I was at the neighbor's home playing some board game. Maybe it was tiddlywinks. The guy's parents come home and they brought some new food called "fish and chips" from a place that just opened in Kailua town. The place was called, pretentiously enough, "H. Salt Esq." At the time it was exotic food from England which must have been classy because of the name. The newspaper motif printed on the bag and wrapper was puzzling to me. I thought it was good eats. Pretty much any food that wasn't prepared at home was good eats. Thus began my long and fruitful friendship with fast food.

I can remember the music that we were listening to at the time. My friend's older sister must have been playing the LP. I really wasn't interested in music at the time but it must have left an impression on me. It was just perfect. My introduction to the Stones and F&C, at the same time.

We had one of those here. Apparently I ate fried foods when I was a little
kid but not as an older one. I refused to eat them so when we dined there, I
had coleslaw and cheesecake. I didn't care for the cheesecake much but my
mom surmised that it must have protein so I had to have it.

If you have no appetite for fried foods, I can understand that. A lot of white females in their middle ages have a problem with digesting fats. It's probably similar to us not so white types not having a craving for ice cream..

OTOH, I could go for some shave ice right now! Unfortunately, it's usually not sold at night. There was a store down the street did sell night shave ice. I thought that was a damn great idea. Unfortunately, a car drove right through the front window thus ending what could have been the seed of a new popular trend in Hawaii. Curse you, human driven cars!

I remember the first time I had that dish. I was at the neighbor's home
playing some board game. Maybe it was tiddlywinks. The guy's parents come
home and they brought some new food called "fish and chips" from a place
that just opened in Kailua town. The place was called, pretentiously enough,
"H. Salt Esq." At the time it was exotic food from England which must have
been classy because of the name. The newspaper motif printed on the bag and
wrapper was puzzling to me. I thought it was good eats. Pretty much any food
that wasn't prepared at home was good eats. Thus began my long and fruitful
friendship with fast food.

I can remember the music that we were listening to at the time. My friend's
older sister must have been playing the LP. I really wasn't interested in
music at the time but it must have left an impression on me. It was just
perfect. My introduction to the Stones and F&C, at the same time.

=====

Oh yes) Music can bring back lovely memories Fish and chips was a
regular Friday food when i was a child. I always used to have patty and
chips. The patty was mashed potato with a little fish, mashed, battered and
fried

My family were Catholics and always had fish on Fridays so that was the
easiest option )

I sometimes make it at home. The only time we buy it from the fish shop is
when we are down in Yorkshire

They are the best

The only place around here to get fried fish like you guys is from a place called Hot Dog on a Stick. I like to get the fish with fried zucchini. There's no malt vinegar to be found at the place - just tartar sauce. I know, it's all so very weird!

Not to mention a host of horrible parasitic worm-thingies. By all rights, people on this rock should all be dead. My guess is that poke/raw fish is going to kill off the young folks on the mainland.

It's those funny looking things in the plate with the two portions of white tartar sauce. Typically, I'll get it with fried zucchini.

We can get malt vinegar in stores over here. I'm not sure why that is since we don't really have any foods that one would use it on, except for fish and chips but we don't really have fish and chip served here either. It's a real mystery.

I misread that to mean burgers topped with cheese and tuna and thought
it wasn't something I would want to try, but then I realized it was tuna
burgers. It would be a lot like a tuna melt.

Sounds reasonable enough to me. I use it on any fried potatoes though and I
will use it on fish that isn't battered. Not much else though.

But I always have some in

There was a couple of different brands of malt vinegar on the shelves. I'm not sure how it's used on this rock. One of the bottles had the Union Jack on the label and says it's traditional British flavor. It's fairly cheap so I'm guessing that it's diluted and flavored industrial acetic acid. My guess is that the closest this stuff has been to the UK is New Jersey.

My apologies to your country for our blatant appropriation of your good name and culture to sell an inferior product. Looks like I'm gonna have to buy a bottle now...

My recipe for salmon patties calls for canned salmon (buy whatever type
you like - red, pink, whatever) and *remove* the soft bones. I did say
it's not necessary but hey, I still do remove them. The come right out
with a fork when you're draining the salmon. Then mash the salmon with
a fork.

He doesn't have a cat. I don't think ferrets would eat salmon bones.
Come to think of it, I don't give my cat any kind of bones, soft or not.
Then again, my cat doesn't like fish catfood. She prefers canned
beef, chicken, turkey or liver cat food. No bones.

LOL! I get most of my calcium from milk and cheeses. I do remove the
bones from canned salmon when I make salmon patties but sometimes I miss
a small round bone or two. They *do* mash right into the mixture
because they were pressure-canned and were soft to begin with. It
doesn't freak me out if I find one.

They can be easily mashed because canned salmon is pressure canned so
they're very soft. I do remove them when draining the canned salmon and
separating the meat, but only because my mother told me to. I miss an
occasional small round bone but they do mash up to practically nothing.
I don't fret about it.

I don't buy canned tuna. I've never liked tuna steaks or tuna fillets,
either. It's just not a type of fish I care for. There are plenty of
other tasty fish to choose from.

You are the one who can put it to a test. I don't think that a cat would
have any trouble biting down on a canned salmon bone. They are about as
hard to chew as a potato chip.

Yoose are too stingy to buy the red salmon, costs more than double but
is far better than the pink.

And it's a bad idea to feed canned tuna or salmon to cats, they're
much too salty.

I pick out as many bones as I can find but some are missed... what I
don't like is the fatty skin. I'm not big on dairy, I don't drink
milk and eat cheese only occasionally... however leafy greens contain
as much calcium as milk... we enjoy the lettuces with dark green
leaves and we like cooked greens of all types. I even like canned
spinach and I drink the liquid or it goes into soup... I never dump
canned veggie liquid down the drain, that contains much of the
nutrients, I drink it or add it to soups/stews.

We don't buy the flake tuna, only the solid... big difference, and
usually the ones in oil olive oil if we can find it. And we don't
cook it, it usually goes into a tossed greens salad or a pasta salad
with no mayo, the tuna and oil is dressing enough, if too dry add a
little Italian dressing or a squeeze of lemon and a drizzle of EVOO.
We're not big on the typical tuna-mayo salad.

Cats can choke on those bones... cats & dogs don't chew their food.
Canned tuna/salmon is not healthy for cats, too salty.
Fish in canned cat food is not in a salty broth.
