What You Should Know

You'd spot this tin in the supermarket seafood or pantry aisle and pull it out for quick sandwiches, salads, or a no-fuss protein on the go. It feels practical and wholesome with a bit of nostalgic comfort—think childhood tuna salad or a simple picnic—rather than indulgent. The fish is canned and packed in olive oil with just water and sea salt, which preserves texture and flavor but indicates industrial processing (processed, not ultra-processed).
