I love Tuna ! I'm not picky about them, but I prefer it in water. Solid Yellow Fin in EVirgin oil is a special treat. You can put tuna into almost any recipe.

Hi, Les!

THANKS for covering this canned meat. I was at a market earlier today to buy tuna for myself and my sister. My sister likes solid white albacore in water, market-brand. I can eat that in a tuna salad or tuna pasta salad where I add mayo, salt, pepper, celery seeds, onion & garlic powder, with or without fresh onions or fresh celery. Gussied up. I like the firmer texture of albacore - compared to that of chunk light tuna.

Chunk light tuna ... I'll have in those vacuum packets that are seasoned with various seasoning like cracked pepper or Thai-spiced when I don't feel like "proper cooking." I'll have one with a ramen noodle packet or with cooked packet rice. Minimal effort. Not my best, but edible. The texture is mushy. Feels like I'm slumming and stealing from a cat.Not that the cats are complaining cause they have better choices. Yes, it's a pantry option, but there arebetter options. Tuna islike the spam of canned seafood.

Unless we're talking premium tunas. If you expand this study to include different brands, I'll pull up a stool and happily chatter away. Just warning you, lol.

Best wishes to the Prepper Family!

Thanks for posting this video! Tuna is so commonly eaten I think people take it for granted. It was nice to see the comparisons. I definitely want to try that Yellowfin in olive oil!

You couldn't have explained it any plainer, probably, but I had to rewind twice before i even got to 3:15 . Thanks, very interesting. And yes, by all means spend a 'chunk' of your life comparing all the details. You know you're going to do it anyway!!!

[dionysus]

Yes, please educate me on tuna. I quite enjoy

[LoveMyCoffee]

Agree … Italian tuna, “Genoa Tonno” in olive oil is delicious. I read Albacore has a lot of Mercury. Nice video … Thank you!

[macster]

Thanks for this video it gave me more understanding of the yellow fin and other types of Tuna oil Vs Water

[KevinSmith-yhtl]

I gotta admit, I always took my tuna purchasing for granted.
Not any more though.
Thank you very much!
👍

I was wondering if the oil has the soonest best buy date? Thank you for this video, lots more ro tuna than meets the eye!

I think farmed Salmon is way more toxic than canned Tuna. Most Salmon comes from China, and it's hard to tell the origin. Both canned and Salmon fillets.

Thank you for this video, appreciate your research. It was very informative, you had a lot of great points on what was pros and cons of different type of cans and use cases. Thanks.

I love whit but will try the yellow fin

[crisservin]

As much as I hate Walmart they have a Solid White Tuna that is pretty good for 1.44 a can in water. Of the few Starkist I found many types more mushy

[Richardofdanbury]

While the review is quite good, it is important to understand when, (not if) SHTF salt, fat, protein will be at a premium. So if you're buying for and extended pantry this is spot on advice. However, if you're stocking long term with SHTF in mind the salt, fat, soy oil, etc. is of no consequence as we will need to survive the times when they come.

Just got chuck white in oil starkist for 79c per can

Thank you for sharing your information.

[joedoakes]

If you're looking for votes, I vote for a canned tuna test video like the one you did on canned chicken. Excellent job on that one BTW. Thank you.

I prefer the albacore tuna in water because it looks cleaner. I use it to make tuna casserole and tuna salad

[janh]

We like Genova brand yellow fin in olive oil

[susanjones]

I eat Poland tuna and would love your thoughts on it.
