John West Tuna Chunks in Brine 4X145g

True, the tuna is not line caught. John West needs to be more mindful of the way they are making a profit in regards to the sustainability of their products. We no longer live in a BIG world where companies can work under the radar... the world has shrunk, there is no place to hide, and they are heading towards corporate suicide if they dont give the consumer what they want... which, in this case, is line caught fish. I was given this product to try by Ocado, which is why its in my cupboard, otherwise I would have purchased another much friendlier brand. In comparison with other brands, it is what it is, a convenient and tasty product which makes a great curried tuna on pitta or a tuna salad sandwich.

On can says "102g drained weight". I have measured it and it's nowhere near that. Averages 86g and that's only with a modest drain. 16g per tin underweight at least - that's 64g per pack of 4, or over half a tin you're running short. Factor that in to your cost per gram when you're comparing. Current cost £1/per can. That's around £1.16 per 100g, if you'd like to compare it with cans of drained weight. That's comparable really with the 3 can pack of drained weight (that says it has a little liquid - how little?) if you're wanting to compare. Seems lately that larger packs aren't better value really - that seems to be common now at Asda I'm finding, even with branded products. Doesn't change fact that drained weight nowhere near advertised and felt deceived by this.

I normally buy tinned tuna in spring water rather than brine, and I was concerned that I would find this too salty. But in fact I could not tell the difference, and neither could my partner. The taste and texture were just fine, although one can of tuna tastes very much like another. This pack of 3 tins boasted that it was 100% traceable, and I accepted the invitation to track my can. I went on the website, entered my fish type, its country, the barcode, and finally the can code, but apparently it was an invalid can code. I tried every single number on the tin, but every time I received the invalid can code message. So I investigated online the environmental credentials of John West. Opinions were divided, but I would feel much more comfortable purchasing tins of ... MoreI normally buy tinned tuna in spring water rather than brine, and I was concerned that I would find this too salty.
