Chunk Light or White Albacore Tuna?

[Rich2279]

The higher price of Albacore is worth it. Tastes so much better and does not make me feel as sick compared to Chunk Light.

I prefer the taste of Albacore, but when it comes down to budgeting, I enjoy Chunk light much more often. It can be purchased for damn cheap and is a good protein source. Win and Win.

BTW: How often do you guys consume tuna?

I don't like chunk light or flaked tuna. Solid albacore here... I buy in 12 package bulk packs (sams club/costco) for about 75c each.

Out of the two, i chose chunk light. I like the taste vs albacore. If it's solid albacore it's way too dry for me. If you can find chunk albacore it's not so bad.

Lately though I got a good deal light yellowfin tuna in olive oil. Its pretty expensive (2$+ per can) compared to either of the two, but it's been worth it imo.

Ya' know, I almost wish I didn't start eating albacore, I can't even stomach chunk light anymore! I had to give tuna a break though, was eating at least a can a day for like 4 months straight, on a dairy kick now, tons of cottage cheese.

I'm not a person who is fond of fishy tasty meat

I'll eat catfish, orange roughy, etc. but nothing "fishy"

Chunk light makes me want to puke. I think it's the smell more than anything. I can eat white albacore, have to add mayo or salsa or something though for some moisture.

If I'm gobbing on the mayo then definitely the albacore from costco.

If I'm going lowfat or just want some additional protein instead of a shake I'll go for chunk light. I'm not a big fan of eating tuna without mayo so chunk light is superior for this. Take a nice bite, chew it a couple times and then take some water and swallow it. I can down a can in a couple of minutes with this method. Eating it dry would take awhile.
