What I used to make this meal?
Wild Planet Skipjack Wild Tuna – no salt added
SUSTAINABLE WILD TUNA – Wild Planet’s tuna is pole and line caught in the northern part of the Pacific Ocean or off coastal New Zealand, maintaining natural populations and preserving the ecosystem.
SUSTAINABLY SOURCED WILD TUNA – Our tuna is 100% pole & line caught in the Central or Northern Pacific Ocean. Pole and line fishing helps to maintain natural fish populations and ocean habitats.
ALWAYS NON-GMO – Gluten free, Non-GMO, and Kosher, our canned tuna is a convenient and healthy snack or addition to your favorite dishes.
NO ADDED OIL, WATER OR FILLERS – We leave out the fillers so that each can of albacore tuna is filled with the fresh-from-the-sea flavor that you want.
