17 ways to eat your tinned tuna.

matthewsism

Not trying to preach but just putting it out there as something to consider...

(ENDANGERED SPECIES) – More than half of the eight tuna species are endangered, three of them threatened with global extinction and two more close behind. High commercial value has lead to the overfishing of tuna, which will inevitably kill off the entire tuna population if nothing is done to stop it.

if you want sources just search for it you will find plenty of info.

But like I said your life your decisions.

There is a lot of illegal tuna fishing going on, I dated a tuna fisherman for a while, driftnet fishing is illegal but it's being done and companies like starkist, chicken of the sea, bumblebee all buy tuna from the illegal driftnet fishers because it is so much cheaper. If you want to support sustainable fishing then look on the cans, it will tell you if it's sustainable. It's going to be more expensive but when you realize what the illegal driftnet fishing is doing to the sea, not only to tuna, so many other types of fish and creatures get caught in those nets and they are dead and thrown overboard because tuna fishers only get paid for tuna. It is an incredible waste. And it's heartbreaking. Our oceans are not invincible.

All that said, for pasta I like to get fresh chopped garlic and chillies going in a bit of olive oil and add tuna and fresh tomatoes. Spicy, delicious, and back in my drinking days a great hangover dish.

The best way to buy Tuna and to know that they are not bought from these Driftnet users or illegal then buy t from the top companys like John west Tuna or Princes Tuna etc these will not buy it illegal

Thanks for you comment

Feel free to add me :drinker: :bigsmile: :smokin:

If the tuna is line caught legally the can will say sustainable. I appreciate that you get driftnet fishing is wrong. It would have been nice if you had expressed that instead of insisting that you would eat tuna till its extinction as in the other comment. It isn't funny you know, dating that angry fisherman was no treat I can tell you and it was bashed into my head what is happening in the waters that we have no idea of. I had to give him the flick he was so obnoxious in his anger, plus he admitted that he dumped his fishing boat oil in the sea when he was changing it and I really cannot abide that kind of hypocrisy.

Thanks but I'll just take my canned tuna, with a slice of cheese, some honey mustard and bread...simple and satisfying.

Thanks, nice post. I also like the ideal of Ramen noodles topped with tuna. Instead of the season pack which has all the calories, use tuna. great ideal.

Bump! I could have built a tin shed with all the damn Tuna tins i go thu

Thanks.

Should cut down a bit, Not to sound like a professional but for some friendly advice it can house quite a lot of mercury. Give it a read before eating too much, My old diet was based upon tuna before I read about it, now i've moved to the IIFYM diet.

I love tuna/avocado/chickpeas together served over a bed of romaine & veggies with dressing. Renée's cucumber dill yogurt dressing is a current fave.

Praise the tuna! :happy:
