Comment on A single tuna (once canned) will be eaten across the world at different times, potentially years apart

Possibly, but it’s always been quite hard to tell. Whenever I get cans it’s always in tiny flakes so I guess that could be from multiple tunas if one can needed a top-up etc.

If you get the more expensive brands or varieties it’s more likely to be solid pieces vs a slurry.

If you buy more expensive tuna, you’ll get cuts that are clearly from one fish. Albacore, for instance, I’ve never seen come in that shredded form.

Also, if you’re interested in sustainability, look for line-caught tuna. It’s not the only sustainable fishing practice, but it’s an eat one to remember. In the US, there’s an MSC certification on the can that’s a reasonably indicator that the company practices sustainable fishing.

If you’re getting cans full of flakes, it’s probably not all from the same fish, or even the same kind of tuna.
