Canned tuna

Just picked up some tune for me and the tune juice for the cat. I haven't really had tuna in awhile and I have always heard to eat it in moderation due to high mercury content. I purchased the best quality one, the store had, and it tastes good. Who eats tune on a regular basis here?

i used to eat up to 14 cans a day back when it was dirt cheap and i was super poor. great source of cheap protein back then for me.

with your cat and i know you have already most likely did it, but look to see if their are any preservatives tossed in there that it cant have. that would be my biggest concern

I eat tuna 2-3 times a week. Make sandwiches with it. Cheap and quick!

Good reminder, thanks guns. I believe it was just wild caught tuna and water but can things usually do have preservatives. I can tell you that the kitty really loves this but she cant have much of this at all. This was $2.99 a can so it wasnt cheap

i eat it 1X a week. i love albacore but it has almost 3X the mercury of regular tuna if I am not mistaken.


"Mercury
Albacore tuna contains more mercury than chunk light tuna. If you are pregnant or nursing, or planning to become pregnant, you should limit your intake of fish high in mercury; you can safely consume just one 6-ounce serving of albacore tuna or 12 ounces of chunk light tuna per week, according to the FDA."

I eat tuna with dressing mixed in. I use salt free nachos to scoop it up. YUM

yes that is what I read also

I eat the hell out of it because its easy and cheap. How many of us are really following the FDA advice? lets face it most of us are taking in far worst then eating to much tuna right. From Food, AAS, supps,
or to much tuna/fish. Everybody should understand/ask them self is risk worth the reward in this game.

I eat a lot of it to. Sometimes I mix it with salsa (no added suger, etc) and scope it with a good pretzel but most of the time right out of the can.

I eat it allot,but I really don't like it all,just convient and cheap

My cat likes the stinkiest tune I can find so I am back to the cheaper stuff

if the heavy metal issue was true completely, i would shrink when it got cold and get huge when it got hot. i literally would eat 12-14 cans day in and day out back in the day. i think they make a lot of shit up to move markets. they do the same thing with beef and poultry and i dont trust dick that comes from the fda

My fav way to eat tuna is mash up an avocado and mix in the tuna with salt and lemon pepper. it is GREAT!

Every time I give it to the cat, I thinkabout guns eating a bunch in a day and I gag...lmao. Stuff smells nasty

when you eat that much, you literally sweat fish oil. it's is terrible. when you are in the poor house and trying to be a monster you do what you have to haha. i also hammered the hell out of eggs when they were like 7-8 bucks for 15 dozen. got to make it happen one way or the other
