I don't mean to discourage you from posting deals but this tuna is awful. Thanks for the post though.

Bought it once, never again. That was once too often - unfit to eat.

aren't the flakes the bits that fall on the floor when they cut the tuna into chunks ?

I stopped eating Tuna after the Fukushima disaster. 29p makes me feel someone is trying to get rid of it. Fukushima Radiation in Tuna

From your link:
"For public health, the levels of radiation are very low and far below levels that are considered cause for concern."
It's probably one of those where your body produces or eating a banana exposes you to more radiation than you would be eating a tin of exposed tuna. :smiley:

I bought this once not knowing the difference. wouldn't buy it for myself again, but I did buy this from my local for the food bank.

jaycrooks - if you are referring to the Ocean Best brand, they are 3 X 165g for £1, which makes them 33p each, not 29p, and the total weight is 495g not 745g. Like John West and Princes, they contain so much liquid, that you end up with little more than 50% in weight of tuna. Whereas Lidl's tuna contain a lot more tuna and a lot less liquid and they are often comparably cheaper than JW & Princes.

I love tuna.. but if ur going cheap may as well get some sardines/mackerels. If ur after health benefits like omega 3 tinned tuna/salmon only has small amounts of it. Better wen fresh. But tinned mackeral/sardines are packed with omega 3.

I'd just like to say, I really appreciate your posts. It sometimes seems like the tide of scientific illiteracy is unstoppable, and that verifiable scientific facts are becoming mere matters of opinion. But then I'll see a post from you, all relatable and informative without a hint of condescension (as tempting as I know it can be), and it gives me hope for the future. So basically, carry on doing what you're doing. I love you

This was Brighton
They had the same in a pack 3 for a £1 160g
Here you get 745g for £1 seems a deal to me
