nothing if i can help it. tuna i still like but
more as sashimi than anything else.

tuna, noodles, mushrooms, fried onions, green peas
is ok, cheese on top with crushed tater chips.

used to eat tuna an ramen noodles with hot sauce
and frozen veggies added at the last to cool it off
quickly enough to eat ASAP as cheap meal.

having eaten way too many cans of it i just don't
put it on the top of my list any more. that and it
has gotten very expensive.

i'm trying to eat more veggies and beans the past
several years.

that's three more replies than i expected so

i'm off to have a bowl of veggie soup (with
a little beef in it but not much) for dinner.

homemade soup, fresh bread, real butter.

just doesn't get much better than that...

I make a white sauce, add some cheese, a handful of frozen peas and the
tuna, mix it with cooked noodles, and bake it with crumbs on top. I haven't
made it for a very long time but dh does like it a lot.

I like that too but haven't made it in years. Hmmmmm....

The other night, I needed a snack and nothing handy sounded good
so I whipped up a couple of tuna sandwiches right quick. Drained
can of tuna in water, some chopped fresh onion, mayo and a small
amount of mustard. This was a quickie snack and did the job. I
often put more ingredients into the mix, like bit of horseradish,
a mashed boiled egg, bit of minced apple.

Good too on lightly toasted bread and topped with crunchy
lettuce.

If it's good tuna, meaning line caught tuna in olive oil, I can eat it right out of the can with a cracker. Cento is one of the better brands.

I don't buy Chicken of the Sea or any of those cheap tunas. They are not sustainably caught and are nothing but flakes and water.

Good canned tuna is not cheap, but it's so far beyond what most people think of canned tuna its mind blowing.

It hardly matters. I buy Chicken of the Sea in a pouch. All I'm going to
do with it is mash it up and mix it with a bunch of mayo, onions, celery,
and green olives, then spread it on bread.

If you buy enough, you will get some amazingly good canned tuna. But
that is few and far between.

At what local store (USA) do you buy better canned (securely packaged)
tuna than Bumblebee or Chicken of the Sea solid albacore?

Thanks.

I realize most tuna can be mixed with stuff and be okay, but it must
smell and taste good (to me) right out of the can.

If you don't mind my asking, why do you insist that it be "securely
packaged"?

You probably can buy better tuna at Whole Foods, Trader Joes, or any
non-national-chain grocery store. We've got a couple of smaller regional
chains and local grocery stores that sell a variety of brands of tuna.

Starkist Select Yellowfin tunas in olive oil are the best of the
mass produced brands. Chunky dark meat, not flakes or dry albacore.
And NOT in water.

Exactly. Even solid albacore. It's inconsistent. Never know what you
will get in the can.

I've had some excellent Chicken of the Sea and Bumblebee solid albacore
tuna, but it has always been hit and miss. I have thrown away a lot of
it.

I don't know about how things are in the UK, but the state of can tuna in the US is dismal. Mostly, what greets you when you open up a can is murky water with tuna debris floating on top like the wooden splinters of a galleon sunk by cannon fire. It's not a pretty sight. What lies beneath is not much better either. It's a gooey mush that resembles the by-products of cat food production.

OTOH, I had a tuna fish sandwich at a restaurant recently. It was pretty good because I have not had one of those in a while.

What kind of tuna are you buying?? I buy albacore packed in water and it's

Drained tuna
finely diced shallot
chopped celery
celery seed
chopped boiled eggs
sweet pickle relish
mayo

I don't care for albacore so I've been getting just regular tuna fish. Albacore might be a better product but I don't care for the taste. I bought some cans of tuna from Costco which are probably better than the stuff you get in supermarkets in that it's sold in 7 oz cans and is more like the old stuff rather than the new cat-food mush.

I shall go home and try to use it up. I'm not supposed to eat carbs so maybe the tuna can be rolled up in some lettuces.

I buy albacore tuna packed in oil, drain it, then I stir in a bit of
softened butter, some diced onion, chopped celery, chopped olives, and dill
relish, salt, pepper, a few hot pepper flakes, add mayo and let firm in
fridge for a couple of hours before using.

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

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

Nothing. I only like in the pouch. The only things I do with tuna are tuna
casserole or tuna salad.

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?

If you haven't tried it, pick up a can of solid albacore tuna packed in
water.

I have tried it. Even the in the pouch stuff, the smell is off-putting.
I like tuna. Not tuna steaks or fillets. Tuna is my least favorite fish.
