Skipjack tuna in water 2-pack
Our skipjack tuna in water is everyone's friend. Sustainably caught with pole and line in the Pacific Ocean - one by one, with negligible bycatch. Packed in water so you can taste the pure, delicious flavor of tuna. Perfect for cold preparations such as a salad.
Together with his fellow fishermen, a total of 6 boats, Glein Stein seeks adventure! Fishing with pole and line gives him the thrill with every catch and the adrenaline that cannot be found anywhere else.
Are you pregnant? Then it's best to skip tuna for now. Don't worry, you can still enjoy the health benefits of fish! For example, choose our smoked Norwegian salmon (provided it's well-heated) twice a week, or our wild Sockeye salmon (also well-heated) once a week. This way you'll still get those valuable omega-3 fatty acids.
Mercury in fish is something to be aware of, but it needs some context. Mercury enters oceans through human pollution and is stored in the tissue of fish. The longer a fish lives and the higher it is in the food chain, the more mercury it can accumulate. Smaller fish tend to have much lower levels.
The tuna in our cans in the Netherlands is skipjack (Katsuwonus pelamis). This is a smaller tuna species that matures quickly and accumulates less mercury. The levels in our tuna typically range from 0.1-0.2 mg/kg, which is well below the legal limit of 1 mg/kg and under the standard fish limit of 0.5 mg/kg.
