GENOVA TONNO OLIVE OIL, 24 pack of 3 oz cans Review

GENOVA TONNO OLIVE OIL, 24 pack of 3 oz cans
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This tuna is simply marvelous. Not unlike a romantic retreat in the Serengheti with a voluptuous lover, this tuna will tentalize you and make you reassess your past preconceptions of what "smashing!" really means. The delicate olive oil blends with the creamy, buttery, proteiny tuna to create a climax of gastronomic nutting that will make you want to smoke a cigarette next to the empty can as soon as you're done with the ingestion. The olive oil and the tuna complement each other unlike any pair of anything in the universe ever. Laurel and Hardy, Tom and Jerry, Peanut Butter and Jelly, Sonny and Cher all pale in comparison to olive oil and tuna. I'm pretty sure that when the yin and yang was created, it was originally pink and light green to symbolize this gastronomic union. I eat this for breakfast, with my cereal; for lunch, with other tuna, and for dinner, with steak.
But seriously. It's really good. Buy it.

Starkist Solid White Albacore Tuna in Water, 3-Count Packages (Pack of 8) Review

Starkist Solid White Albacore Tuna in Water, 3-Count Packages (Pack of 8)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Starkist Solid White Albacore Tuna in Water makes for one of the healthiest foods on your grocer's shelf. At the Amazon price it is economical, too. More importantly, however, this tuna provides you with protein, B vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 is just about the only fatty acid that is actually good for your heart. Your heart loves omega-3; trust me!
Starkist packs the tuna in water to keep it moist and fresh for months at a time while it is in the can before you open it. You may want to drain the water from the can before you remove the tuna. This tuna, as Amazon correctly notes, comes from only the choicest cuts of the fish and it tastes delicious. While you certainly can eat it right out of the can; it mixes particularly well with products like mayonnaise and reduced fat mayonnaise.
One caveat, however: the water/vegetable broth contains soy, salt, and pyrophosphate. If you are allergic to any of these ingredients or if you are on a salt free diet consult your doctor before eating this tuna. Starkist may make this tuna with reduced salt; and there are other brands of tuna that definitely contain less salt.
Overall, Starkist solid white albacore tuna in water offers an amazingly healthy meal. It is especially healthy for you because it is lower in fat and cholesterol than meat or even poultry. It tastes great directly from the can; and it makes an excellent ingredient for tuna fish sandwiches with mayo or any recipe that requires tuna. I highly recommend this tuna for people who want to eat healthy foods; and this tuna fish will never disappoint mothers who want to feed their children well.
ENJOY!!!

Wild caught, no added salt, great price. Great flavor too.
Bones and skin are pretty normal in canned salmon and mix right into a salad. A source of calcium, actually. And Omega 3 oil is highly recommended.
Add some herbs and lemon juice (and maybe even a little salt), some fine chopped sweet onions, some fresh garlic ... have a feast!
I don't buy many canned or other prepared foods because of the high salt and other additives, so this is great to find! I notice this company also carries no salt added tuna - also a great price.

I bought because the price is very reasonable and low calorie. However the flavor is not my taste. It is very creamy but doesn't taste like tuna. I end it up gave them to my friends.

I eat these tuna cups (or the salmon cups) almost daily.
If you're looking for a nutritious snack, these cups really can't be beat. If you're a bodybuilder or athlete trying to increase your daily protein intake, these are awesome. If you're a parent trying to get your kid to eat healthy, getting them to like fish is a great idea. If you're trying to eat 5-7 meals a day to lose weight, make one of these cups one of your meals, the protein fills you up and makes you feel good. It also requires a bit of chewing to complete the eating experience.
Why eat a nutritionally empty "100 calorie pack" of goldfish crackers or potato chips when you could have something like this that has only 80 calories and infinitely more nutritional benefit??
I'll eat these alone, straight from the cup, basically anywhere since you don't need to refridgerate and you don't need a can opener. I'll dump them onto salad, or mix with rice, quinoa, or beans.
Here's the nutrition data off the back (for 1 2.7oz cup) at the time of writing:
Calories 80 (10 from fat)
Total Fat 1g
Cholesterol 35mg
Sodium 15mg
Total Carb 0g
Protein 18g
Omega-3 EPA/DHA 200mg
You really can't beat this for something so portable that requires no preparation or refridgeration. The package says "in water" but there's a little bit of broth in the cup, and if you squeeze this out or just leave it at the bottom of the cup, you probably cut the sodium down to 10mg.
I highly recommend these tuna cups and the salmon cups as well. But, avoid the tuna salad, or the flavored varieties if you are looking to get the maximum nutritional benefit. Those salads and flavorings just add salt, sugar, carbs.

Opened the first packet of this salmon and put it on top of cream cheese and cucumber on a wasa crispbread. The first thing I noticed was the salt...a bit too salty for me. I've never had seafood in these packets before so was surprised how flattened the fish was...guess there's no way to get around that. Parts seemed 'dry' and it appeared 'clumpy'. It had a good salmon taste and smell. My blind kitty headed right for the smell as I opened the packet...she likes it too. Pretty expensive for kitty food but nothing but the best for her, she ate the little I gave her, then my other kitty came in to clean up the rest. I would have rated this higher if it wasn't so salty. It's convenient and easy to use and for just me eating it, I like the packets better than a can, I just roll the top down and put it in the refrigerator for tomorrow's lunch.
Conclusion: I will use this more for a salmon salad as opposed to eating it straight, the saltiness will be better handled with mayo to calm the saltiness. I think I will look for a no salt variety next time.
Note: I never salt my fresh salmon when cooking it, so what may be a salt issue with me may not for you.
