I understand the mercury risks of tuna, but I still believe that it's

What I want to know is, which type/brand of tuna tastes the best?
Specifically, I'm looking at Starkist lemon pepper tuna fillet in the
pouch, and the Starkist chunk tuna in pouch in flavors such as hikory
and sweet & spicy. And when it comes to the canned stuff, which tends
to be the most palatable?

Betsy,

I can only offer up Bumble-Bee Low-Sodium solid white albacore, add some
fine chopped celery, some Trader Joe's low-fat mayonaise, pepper to taste
and apply onto (the then) Trader Joe's no-sodium whole wheat bread,
toasted, with lettuce and that's fine dining. Serve open-faced to cut
back on calories and other negative nutrients.

Can you tell that I have no taste? Add some low-fat cheese if you like to
live dangerously. Like The Historian and I do.

I've read that the white albacore tuna is significantly higher in
mercury than the light. I'm not sure why, but I like the light
anyway. I buy either Bumble Bee or Chicken of the Sea and haven't
noticed a difference between the two. I like canned tuna a lot.
