Y E L L O W F I N.........T U N A........? ? ? ? ?Jul 19, 2009

CORRECTION: I RATE THIS TUNA-FISH F I V E STARS!
Before seeing this tunafish, (NATURAL VALUE YELLOWFIN TUNA. [...]), on Amazon, I had no idea that there even was such a thing as yellowfin tuna! (There's a first time for everything, I guess!) I wondered if "yellowfin" was another name for "light" tunea. The strange name for tunafish tugged at my adventurous side -- and since the "adventure", in this case, did NOT involve braving going out to actually catch the tuna -- but only "risking" some money and buying it, I decided to do so....as I had never yet met a type of tunafish I did not enjoy eating.
This is still the case! The "chunk" style tuna here is indeed chunky -- making it easier to mix and form into tuna salad, etc., than solid tuna, (and chunk tuna is usually less expensive, as well!) The taste of this tuna is 3/4 like the more expensive albacore, and 1/4 like the less-expensive, (but still delicious...at least to me),"light" tuna.
It's also nice to have tuna packed in "spring water", -- not just "water" orm (always more caloric) oil. Also, I notice that THIS tuna (6 ounce size), gives a 2 ounce serving, and 2.5 servings, per can. SOME OTHER TUNA FISH BRANDS, ALSO CONTAINING 6 OUNCES PER CAN AND 2 OUNCE SERVINGS, ONLY LIST 2 SERVINGS PER CAN! The reason for the difference? MORE WATER OR OIL IN THE OTHER BRANDS OF TUNA! From buying this tuna, and other brands, and seeing the different number of servings on the label, I HAVE LEARNT TO SHAKE THE TUNA FISH CAN, EVER SO GENTLY, BEFORE BUYING, TO SEE HOW MUCH WATER OR OIL IS IN IT! And...it's TRUE! The other brands of tuna have more of a watery sound in them!!!!!
As far as SALT is concerned.... Some time ago whilst watch- ing TV, (or perhaps reading tips in a woman's magazine, I don't really remember) -- I learnt this: TO TAKE THE SALT OUT OF ANY CANNED GOODS, OPEN THE CAN, REPLACE THE LID, AND RUN COLD WATER OVER THE CAN, WHILST PRESSING DOWN GENTLY ON THE LID, AND THUS "RINSING" THE SALT AWAY. Doing this, one can buy the usually less-expensive "full salt" type of canned goods, and just rinse away the salt yourself!
NATURAL VALUE YELLOWFIN TUNA is thoughtfully packaged in a SEAM-FREE container, assuring a longer shelf life, because there are no seam-sealing materials, (glue, etc.), to leech into the tuna, (yeech!) This review is being written on July 19th, 2009. The expiration date on the bottom of the can, (clearly labelled -- no 'blind dating'!) is 11/13/12!
This tuna is also "No Threat To Dolphins", and bears the "OU" of the Orthodox (Jewish) Union. These herald a truly product, made by people who CARE about quality and also about Dolphins -- the most intelligent sea-creatures there are!
All in all, a nice little can of tuna! And it weighs a FULL SIX OUNCES! Too many of the supermarket brands now come in 5 ounce containers! This may be a false economy, on the part of these other tuna canners -- because it involves the cost of filling MORE cans! Could 4-ounce tuna fish cans be far behind? I shudder to think -- but the possibility is sady real... ) :
Anyway, this tuna, which give half-a-serving more than other tunafish in the same size can! Seamless packaging, a long shelf-life, dolphin safe, OU endorsed -- quite a nice little package -- and a tasty one, too!
(6 ounces = 170 grams = 176 yum yums. No -- make that 1776 yum yumms...............and counting! : ),

Canned TunaMar 18, 2008
By D. Barber I have ordered this tuna on two different occasions. The quality is good (like big-name brands such as Starkist or Chicken Of The Sea), but the 24 pack is a little more convenient if you use a lot. I bought my tuna as a weight-loss device. This tuna fish is high in protein but amazingly low in fat. The only concern is that a high-fish diet these days introduces the risk of mercury exposure. Still, it's a great way to supplement your diet with cost effective and healthy seafood. Super healthy with brown un-bleached rice.

This is rather average tuna at a inflated price. I can buy solid pack albacore at my grocery for about the same price and I don't have to buy 24 at a time.
