Description
After 30 years behind the seafood counter, I compare 21 cans of tuna priced from $1 to $21 to show what you’re really paying for-and which ones are worth buying. I’ll explain why a $9 tin may be the sweet spot, why the $21 import can be a rip-off, and how I use the can’s label to make a better choice than simply grabbing the cheapest or fanciest option.
I break down:
- Which tuna cans I would buy and which I would skip
- Why higher prices often reflect shipping more than flavor
- What to look for on the can before you pay
- The difference between oil-packed and water-packed tuna
I’m curious: are you an oil-pack person or a water-pack person? Tell me in the comments.
