Do you eat Tuna?

At a sushi restaurant but I would not dream of eating canned fish. Too similar to cat food.

Yes, I do.

I like mine with Albacore.

Apple core?

No—Albacore. It’s a fish.

Tunas be top o' the food chain -- full of radioactive elements from Fukushima. Eat up and glow!

That sounds good, OP.

I want to start eating more fish, but I’m worried about poison, and my boyfriend hates it so I don’t think I could ever get away with cooking it here unless he goes out of town on a work trip. I do buy canned salmon from time to time.

I THOT i SMELT fish!

chopped dill pickles and slices of green Olives. Only solid white tuna though. I like to eat it scooped onto cheddar sunchips or on 7 grain bread. yum.

I learned recently the revolting custom of drinking the water packed in the can as soon as you remove the lid

That makes sense r8, if you're a cat

Avoid it at all costs.

I've recently started to add sweet pickles/ bread and butter chips like a lot of restaurants do

And black pepper, parmesan, Italian dressing and Dijon mustard

Costco's Kirkland tuna is best store-bought brand

I do. Albacore. Mayo, LOTS of celery & onion, diced sweet pickled jalapeños (w/a bit of the juice), and hard boiled egg. I sometimes throw in sliced olives of some kind (I love them all).

Whatever I use, the bread must be toasted. I too like it on rye, OP, or a very seedy, grainy bread. Sometimes, I like to line an everything style hotdog bun with four half slices of really good tomato (two on each side), and spinach or spring mix before adding the tuna salad.

Oh, and I DON'T spread additional mayonnaise onto the bread while building the sandwich. There's more than enough in the salad itself. It's always bothered me when people do that. But I also love dry toast, so...go figure.

I was a pescetarian and I used to LOVE tuna even though I know it’s cheap. I haven’t craved it in a few years and I’m not sure I’ll eat fish again. Partially due to how polluted the waterways of earth are.

Albacore with mayo, celery, and a little curry powder. On toasted sourdough topped with sliced avocado.

I rarely eat tuna, but when I do it is fresh and either raw or lightly seared on each side (my preferred preparation). Canned tuna sucks. Even albacore.

R15 seared tuna is disgusting

I am a homosexual. No tuna for me, EVAH.

Albacore is by far the most mercury-laden type of tuna. In terms of minimizing mercury consumption, you are much better buying chunk light tuna. (Link below). Albacore has 3 times the amount of mercury in it as an equal amount of chunk light. Plus the texture of canned albacore is much drier than that of chunk light, which usually is from different species of tuna - skipjack or yellowfin tuna, so that much more mayonnaise is needed to moisten it . When I can find it, I prefer chunk light packed in oil. It is more flavorful than water packed tuna. I squeeze out most of the oil, add a little mayo and some sweet pickle juice with a little bit of diced pickle, and I'm good.

I have a story for you, OP...

No

Are you kidding?! YES!! I eat lots and lots of tuna! It is really tasty!

Has anyone made a lesbian joke yet in this thread? I feel like I could do so and totally get more likes than anyone else because it’s just so clever!!!!!

It reminds me of making tuna sandwiches with my grandma: Mayo & pickles, & only oil packed tuna.

What r18 said, but also add finely chopped celery and carrots, caraway seeds, lemon juice, fresh ground pepper. Chill overnight.

Serve on toasted dill rye bread. Pickles on the side.

canned tuna ( sirena ) finely chopped carrot, chives, lemon juice, mayo and white pepper

Only fresh, lightly seared and served with anchovy mayo.

Yes. With celery, sweet pickle, a tablespoon or so of brown mustard, hard boiled egg, mayo, and a little onion.

Either on toasted rye with lettuce, or as a melt on rye with cheddar or Swiss cheese.

Divine!

I do, I'm trying to eat more protein and a lot fewer carbs, and canned tuna and salmon are good quick-fix proteins. Mix in a little chopped celery, onion, and dijon and have it with bread & butter pickles.

I prefer fresh tuna filets but I'm living in the Midwest and that's not gonna happen.

I love tuna and eat it at least 3 times a week. I can't eat meat, but I can eat most fish and tuna is a favorite. I do hate canned tuna though. When I buy prepared tuna I always buy the type packaged in the packets, especially the spiced varieties. I love to pan cook tuna filets in a butter sauce with sliced onions and green olives.

Yuck! Might as well go straight then to eat that shit

I do a mayo/green onion/gherkin or sweet mix pickle for my tuna salad. Pickled ginger and/or chillies as well if I have them.

Love tuna sushi and sashimi.

R18 I agree with you. I used to buy white tuna packed in water. I switched to light tuna in oil and it's much tastier. I remember Julia Child asking why anyone would want to eat tuna packed in water.

Only really fresh.

Yes. Chunk light tuna in oil (I hate Albacore, it's dry as shit), some Frank's Red Hot, Hellman's mayo, Hoffman's sharp cheddar, and some crusty Italian bread fresh from the bakery.

You know those who portray themselves online like they are straight out of a Grey Poupon commercial and claim they never eat tuna out of a can have ingested male DNA from every region supporting human life

"I prefer fresh tuna filets but I'm living in the Midwest and that's not gonna happen."

You must be a poor. In the 21st century, believe it or not, fresh tuna is delivered to markets and restaurants in the Midwest.

P.S. It's even delivered to Kansas

[quote]Do you eat Tuna?

Stealth cunnilingus thread.

No wonder R28 can't get the right fish. Just try a different store.

Yes, but I hate celery and pickles, so if I need a crunch factor it'd be adding scallion (spring onion).

Scallions are not going to provide any crunch factor at all. Once they're mixed in they'll basically turn to mush.

Depends on the salt content. Right balance and they will be "pickled" and will retain crunch.

I avoid all tuna

Totally gross and disgusting. It's cat food.

How I lost a hundred pounds in nine months:

A single yogurt for breakfast, along with a huge mug of black coffee. Full fat, usually Greek yogurt.

One can of albacore tuna for lunch. I refrigerated it, sprinkled salt and pepper on it after opening, and ate it straight from the can.

Anything I wanted for dinner, but never after 8:00 PM.

The thought of eating canned tuna disgusted me for a few weeks, but I noticed after a month that I started salivating in anticipation of eating tuna, and only tune, for lunch. I ate lunch at 11:50 each day. Eventually I started adding some onion salt instead of plain salt, and a tiny squirt of mayonnaise or yellow mustard. In retrospect, it shocks me how the weight melted off.

So, OP, yes I eat tuna, both fresh and from a can, but not nearly as much as I once did.

I eat tuna right out of the can, as well, R44. Solid white packed in oil,. I don't add anything to it.. But yes, R1, I do sometimes feel like a cat when I do it

My secret ingredient in tuna salad: toasted pine nuts. Gives a nice crunch that is way better than celery, and also gives a nice added flavor. But toasted. Not raw.

Once in awhile. Probably twice a year...and i don't understand the people that are putting hard boiled egg in there. And I like the way I prepare it the best: sweet relish (or sweet pickle chopped), celery finely chopped, mayo and brown mustard. I've put capers in it too, which I like. I really love it with avocado, sprouts and sweet, summer tomatoes. In a pita pocket or on toast (rye or a really good wheat with wheat berries in it).

And on occasion, in sushi (which i rarely eat anymore, as it was usually a social meal thing).

Way too many "ands" used up there. i can't even say i am Sunday/Funday/Drunk.

I always crack up about the tuna can urban legend: a frau peels off the label off her tuna, only to learn it’s CAT FOOD she’s been eating.

Why do you feel the need to anything?

It's delicious on its own.
