New in the Market: Safe Catch Canned Tuna

We love to try new foods. Some are great. Some don’t measure up and some become staples in our kitchen. See what you think.
Most people love tuna fish sandwiches but many are concerned about the contradictory information regarding tuna and mercury levels. Which type of tuna is best to buy? How much can you safely eat? Safe Catch eliminates some of this confusion by offering the first 100% mercury tested canned tuna.
Safe Catch tuna is available as Wild Skipjack or Wild Albacore in 5-ounce cans. Each tuna is tested to be sure that mercury levels are below the safe limits set for canned tuna. The Safe Catch mercury testing procedure has been verified by third party verifiers. It is certified Dolphin Safe by Earth Island Institute.
The tuna has a mild, true tuna taste because the processing is different from that of most brands. Safe Catch raw tuna is packed in the cans and processed to cook the fish. There is not added water or oil and the juice found in the can is the natural juice from the tuna.
