When I was a kid I ate canned tuna (sandwich, salad, etc.) all the time. In the past few years I've found I don't like to because the tuna most companies put out has been shredded so finely it's no longer "tuna in water", it's "tuna pulp", and almost impossible to drain properly because it's like squeezing the liquid out of a turd nowadays.

Then while doing a grocery run a day ago, I ran into this stuff.

Seeing as just a few days before I was annoyed at my inability to get some drained tuna for a dish, I had to grab a few cans.

And holy crap, they weren't lying.

LOOK AT THAT. Actual SOLID (nice and dense) tuna, and it was really only a tiny amount of water that poured out easily.

They apparently have pre-seasoned stuff as well. I tried the lemon pepper kind and it was pretty strong (definitely meant to go in a dish instead of on it's own), haven't tried the thai chili one.

This is how all tuna is here... Well, I usually get it in oil, but the same can be said for every liquid it comes in.
 
I must agree with FAST on this one. All tuna is like that over here, never heard of this 'tuna pulp' you speak of.

Also, it's got to be in brine with for me. :lol: (Preferably with pepper and sweetcorn, mayo is a must).
 
Good Tuna Recipe here.

Cook a bag of egg noodles, drain, add cans of condensed cream of mushroom soup, add 1 or 2 large cans of albacore tuna, put in a cake pan, crush up some Ruffles potato chips and sprinkle on top, bake for 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Serve hot and enjoy!

Also optional some pepper and pea's if you like them...
 
We have both kinds here, but the good fillet-type stuff is about three times more expensive than the shredded goo stuff. It's because the shredded stuff is all the unsellable scraps and bits left over from the butchering.
 
You might want to create a religion Rydian, you moved so much people with a simple can of tuna, who knows what would happen if it was an ideology.

AMEN BROTHER !!! Now let's pray.

Our Father, who are in the Temp,
Hallowed be thy nickname.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy will be done on Internet as it is in the forums.
Give us this day our daily tuna.
And forgive us our warnings as we forgive our warners.
And lead us not into EoF,
but deliver us from evil.

WTF is that? It's just a mush of tuna. I'd be very annoyed if I opened a can and that was in it.:angry:
 
Cans over here, say nothing on them. Cans in my fridge at the moment, just Tuna in oil, by Sainsburys. They are chunks though, even own brand stuff is tuna chunks :D.

It usually says on the can if it's fillet, chunks or shreds (I don't know the exact English terms for it).

"Chunk Light" or "Chunk lite" is what made me think that it was "chunk" in general, which is why when I saw "solid" and "no drain", my peepee place went boing just like Taewong.
