GARBAGE HANDLING

Bought online. Item arrived completely ruined, every package was torn apart from rough handling and EVERY SINGLE CAN WAS VERY BADLY DENTED!!!

Canned tuna

I usually like this tuna product it this package was wrapped and each can was so sticky you can hardly separate them. And they had a terrible odor.

Lots of dark black spotty tuna

Not sure if it was just a bad batch or what happened but every can had really black stains in the tuna

Not Very Good

Once the oil is removed, the can is less than 2/3 full of tuna. Also, the texture of the fish is almost like it was run through a macerator. It’s mealy and mushy. The fish had a very strong fishy smell which is uncommon of modern canned tuna.

Sorry, Not Soy Free!! Description Error!

Description is in error, but The package label is correct, which says it does contain soy bean oil, which is “SOY“ We personally like the Genova yellow fin tuna packed in “Olive oil“ which we are ordering for delivery now.

VERY messy

received this in a mail order I placed and the outside wrapping was a little tacky so I took it off and found all 12 cans was SO VERY STICKY I had to put them in the sink and actually scrub them with an sos pad just so I could put them in my cabinet and not get every thing else sticky WOW it was a mess I had to force them apart they were stuck together so tightly from what ever was on them that you could pick 1 up and get 3 to 4 OMG not sure what was dumped on them but will NOT order through the mail again!

Just Awful

I cannot believe this product actually has 5 star reviews. The fish itself smells bad and is in small flakes. That is, very small. It is like cat food. In fact, I did not consume the one can I opened and I gave the rest to a neighbor who feeds feral cats. This is the nastiest tuna I have ever experienced. There was so much liquid in the can, that when I pressed out the flakes it was much less than half a can of tuna.

Good, but only because EVOO makes it sing!

This introduced me to the reality of Tuna and Chicken in OLIVE OIL!!!! But no one sells this. Everyone KNOWS vegetable oil is highly processed gunk. While extra-virgin olive Oil is as close to purity as you can get for a "vegetable oil." So replace you water chicken / tuna /w oil. Drain the water, pour over some good EVOO spanish, italian, or even greek into that mix of chicken or tuna and give it a go. Even better if you add parmigiano shavings or Romano shavings!
