Review: The only canned tuna I eat - It's delicious, and has lower mercury levels than some other tuna. I never really was a fan of canned tuna until my 84-year-old friend made me a sandwich with this and some olive paste. She's very picky about what she eats, only high-quality whole foods, hence why she's still independent and thriving at her age. Now I'm obsessed and always have a stash of these in my pantry. They just taste good and are high quality. I'd never buy any other tuna. It's not cheap, but I'd rather get the good stuff.
