Help decide the 'canned tuna fish' debate between my wife and I - packs of 3 little cans vs normal sized can

I prefer to buy the packs of 3 individual size cans vs the 'normal' size can of tuna fish...basically because (at least to me) once you open the can, mix mayo, etc into it, then refrigerate what you don't use, the left over tuna tastes like holy hell the next day (I don't know why the simple process of cooling down this concoction changes the taste so drastically...but it does)

On the other hand, my wife wants the 'regular/normal' cans because you get a lot more for the buck...which is fine and I understand that. But what about the 'suck' taste? Is the savings worth it if it becomes too nasty to eat? Can the original taste somehow be restored?

So what say you? Debate away!!!!

 

It's her kitchen, why you arguing with her? :huh:

Just for perspective, and example........From Stop and Shop:

 

Bumble Bee Tuna Chunk Light in Water - 3 pk 3 cans 3 ounces each - $3.49 = $1.16 per can

 

Bumble Bee Tuna Chunk Light in Water 5 ounce can - $0.80

 

Um, if ya can't eat the extra 2 ounces....:squid:

i prefer canned dolphin and whale.

 

A whale washed up on the beach in Brigantine Monday, dead. I was watching them cut the bitch up this morning on the news. They were going to bury the ******* thing and all I could see was some beautifully marlbed flesh going to waste. :(

You know it must be a penguin bound down if you hear that terrible screaming and there ain't no other birds around.

Can't they just dynamite it?

The correct answer: You but the 3 packs you love and the larger can she loves. You can eat the whole, tiny can and she can put the unused tuna from the larger can back in the fridge. When you have tuna the following day, you can open your new tiny can - and she can have the nasty leftovers from the larger can :idea:

 

This stuff is only difficult if you let it be :wave:

 

Also, as stated previously, what kind of sissy can't eat a whole 5oz can of tuna? :squid: Then again, I don't make sammiches outta tuna (mayonaisse aversion :scared: ) - so when I have tuna, I open a can, pour out the water, dump tuna in a bowl and mix in some balsamic vinegar and then eat it like medicine....low fat, high protein medicine :o

Show someone how to catch striped bass and they'll be ready to fish anywhere.

Sounds like something one would do to punish or discipline children.

 

Bad test grade?

 

Didn't make your bed?

 

Pushed your brother down a flight of stairs?

 

Oh, its tuna and balsamic for you.

If you can handle the higher fat, and consequently higher taste factor, go for the Italian tuna packed in olive oil. You can drain out some of the oil, but be left with a tastier meal. Add in some hard boiled eggs, and chopped veggies and it is actually tasty. The Italian tuna is all yellowfin as opposed to wrongfin, you can get it relatively inexpensive at Costco for the Cento brand.
