Wild Planet Skipjack Wild Tuna, Sea Salt, Canned Tuna, Pole & Line Sustainably Wild-Caught, Non-GMO, Kosher, 5 Ounce Can (Pack of 12)

Here's a thank you to Smashing Wool's [and another one] review for noting the can lining for this tuna is BPA-free. I was wondering about that; I'm glad I took time to reread that review prior to posting mine. [As will be evident, I read and benefited from each of the reviews here when I posted mine. Thank you!] I was sparked by SW's reminder of different ways to use tuna besides immediately snarfing it out of the can [one of the reasons I was curious about BPA]. Sometimes I leave some in the can and dump the rest into a pretty glass bowl, then snarf it after setting the can down for Arzel, my godly cat. She has to wait for what I leave in the can for her when I use the first method [I don't like to torture my cat with that type of wait]. I love this tuna so much and have missed real tuna for so many years of increasing takeover of soybean ooze, I dropped back to inhaling this TUNA unadulterated, after I [thank God, Jeff Bezos, and Amazon Customer Reviews] discovered this divine presentation. In my first purchase I bought the Wild Planet Wild Albacore Tuna No Salt . It sold me on all counts of its advertised positives, including the fact that the can is packed with big chunks of tuna MEAT which hasn't been smashed down into mush with lots of limp water and/or tons of soybean oil sludge. The Albacore was PRIME, but I missed the uniquely natural, intensely healthy saltiness which identifies tuna to me [anyone interested could read Dr. Batmanghelidj's book, Obesity Cancer & Depression , if he wants to know about the healing qualities of the right type of salt]. So I tried this Skipjack version to see if it had more of the SALTY tuna taste I crave. A habit suddenly dissipated, a habit I had worked into with the Albacore, after a few cans of Skipjack had been digested unadulterated, with YUM in every bite. In my long ago history of a sort of youth, when I could still see what tuna MEAT looked like in the can by evidence of it from a few un-smashed chunks big enough for human vision to register... way back then, I relished mixing mayo, chopped onions, garlic, celery, and sweet Gerkin's, etc., into canned tuna, for a sandwich or salad. Yeah, as a 1947 born Baby Boomer I also made curried tuna casseroles and fresh dill laced pot pies; I prepared tuna in black-olive-and-mushroom studded, black-peppered gravy [or topped with chopped onions and melted Swiss cheese], and generously slipped it over a fully toasted bun or bagel, etc. With this new dozen can collection of this Skipjack tuna, I found myself wanting to renew and expand that almost sacred recipe-rhapsody, minus soy, plus old-days healthy mayo; minus freshly-conjured, GMO-miasma-dredged additives; minus waste products declared illegal to touch or breathe being dumped into food products; you know, minus all that crud intelligent insects crawl away from when they'll live and flourish on genetically unmodified crude oils. Other much older living Kindoms like bacteria, viruses, fungi, insects, etc., maybe have developed a type of sentience, even wisdom we might not ever achieve, though I do have hope [not the fake-hype type]. Oops. I may have turned over the tuna box and set my feet onto it, lol. Maybe that's a hint I should look for some organic, non GMO, no soy soap? ANYway. I searched Amazon for an organic, no GMO, NO SOY mayo so I could begin to reconnect with my yums of youth, which I may have never actually had... I did have honest "yums"; it's the youth I question. I may be getting one of those now, an attitude of youth, even though I'm dying from anti-nutrients not only passed off as, but pushed as "food"? Let the blessings begin, though they probably began with this Slipjack tuna. Here's the blessing I discovered and bought [which I hope I live long enough to review with high level rapture]: Wilderness Family Mayonnaise, Certified Organic, 16 fl. oz. jar That mayo and its family of producers is clearly blessed. But this Skipjack tuna is so good, I finally quit adding even this mayo to it [not to worry, this type of mayo has a universe full of yum-and-yell "yes!" uses]. I take time to scoop the solid tuna meat out of the can and into a cut-glass, fancy dish only to leave some of it in the can for Arzel, though sometimes I put hers in cut-glass, too... until I realized she likes the can method because she can lick the tuna juice clean off the inside... which brings us back to what inspired this comment turned review: Thank you, SW, for each detail in your review, especially for answering the BPA question I had in the back of my mind when I took time to reread. As has been becoming a new habit, I meant to make a brief, off the top comment under a review I particularly appreciated, and ended up with more than the review I intended to write next. Maybe there's some type of magic in a comment box which works for me even better than the review form, though I like the ease of that setup, too. I opened a can of Skipjack before heading out to a local cafe for breakfast this morning; forked lifted some of the thick, lusciously dense meat into my cut-glass bowl, and left a good portion in the can for Arzel. I snarfed up several bites [from my bowl] before storing the remainder in the fridge. I considered eating a Larabar Ginger Snap , too, in defense against the varieties of soy I would be eating next, but didn't want to upset my appetite for a DENNY'S senior omelet. Hey! DENNY's is an icon from my youth. I wouldn't abandon it in its struggle through the dark ages of soy. [During one of my Dark Ages in February 1985 in Portland, Oregon, a Denny's ambiance, one-egg-breakfast helped lift my spirit out of a black hole. I began writing my first novel there, that morning, truly on the back of an envelop.] I believe in getting a healthy core of food into me whenever possible, to counteract the soybean overwhelm I always try to work my soul around when eating in cherished restaurants of various types and locations, where I set up my Samsung NF210-A03 10.1-Inch Netbook and type, type, type. [Actually my beloved do-everything netbook, which I bought from Amazon, is a Samsung N220 Plus, but it's not available here currently, so I linked a comparable one above.] Someday maybe GM enhanced Organisms will connect their significant intelligence with some of the innocent good people residing within the GMO soybean pushers paradigm... and communicate to them what REAL FOOD is and precisely why it's real. Maybe that core of realism will spread... like a good virus? Maybe the trick would be to have the good guys [caught in the soybean web con] alternate bites from a regular can of smashed soy tuna, with bites from this offering of WILD SKIPJACK. YES!!!! Taste buds do have sentience. I'm just saying... I'm too old to use that expression, LOL! Linda Shelnutt

I’ve always been a tuna consumer and lover of. However, a few years ago I acquired severe Mercury Poisoning and took a few years off it to bring my levels down. I like this Tuna a lot, as it’s a smaller fish and hopefully has less Mercury. Light tuna tastes more strong, a bit like cat food I imagine since most is made from skipjack. I can Doctor this tuna up to make it quite delectable. I add a teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil, some dried dill, and a pinch of cayenne. This tuna is really good quality compared to others. Yes, a bit more pricey, but worth it. It’s soft, smooth, light. Easier to digest too. My only complaint is with the can. It’s hard to open it completely, and sometimes toward the end the loop breaks off. Other than that, this is superior canned fish.

Good tuna, lots of flavor ,good for tuna salad

This is the no salt added best tuna ever! I'm on a very low sodium diet, I love tuna, this stuff is a godsend. I can only find it in one or two stores that are not near me. This is a better price than I found in the store.

Wild Planet’s Skipjack Wild Tuna stands out for its dedication to sustainability and natural processing. This tuna is not just food; it's a testament to environmentally conscious fishing. Caught using pole & line, troll, or handline methods, it ensures minimal bycatch, protecting marine life like turtles and dolphins. The tuna is hand-cut and packed in its own juices, preserving its authentic flavor and impressive nutritional value. This is by far the best tuna I have ever had. It has 23% more protein than other brands. However, be cautious with the packaging—the lids are quite hard to open and very sharp. Overall, a great choice for those who value taste and ethical sourcing.

Because it is a quality product, I purchased multiple items. QUALITY-VALUE-PRICE... it's all good. Especially, for PREPPING/SURVIVAL.

I have been buying this tuna for years. It's the best tuna and is very good quality unlike other brands. It is pricey but the taste is always fresh and not fishy at all.

LOWEST MERCURY LEVEL. WILD CAUGHT. DELICIOUS. I USE NO SALT ADDED AND IT IS VERY TASTY.

Great quality. Little bit pricey

Me gusto porque resultó ser mejor que mis expectativas
