You can tune a piano but you can’t tuna fish.

Just bought a can yesterday...$2.09.
Bought a gallon of prime filet of petrol too: $3.09. Two cents more than the day before.

I switched from tuna to sardines a while back. Less mercury.

The FBI is spying on and wiretapping one of the major parties in the U.S. Presidential campaign. Somehow price fixing a can of tuna doesn’t seem very important.

Priorities Flick, priorities

I note that there is a big spread in price and quality among the various brands and types of canned tuna.

“White” is a big difference than “light”.

Some of it is just plain nasty.

I used to stockpile canned tuna as part of my survivalist preps, and at one point had many cans of several different types.

My takeaway: if you give cats tuna packed in oil, it gives them diarrhea.

If you give it to dogs, it makes them happy.

Charlie Tuna, LOL. I remember him and those commercials.

If I recall correctly, Charlie Tuna the famous DJ, passed away a while back.

I wouldn't doubt that Pelosi pulled a string or two to get this before a Fed prosecutor...with Bumble Bee being Starkist's main competition. And Paul Pelosi, Nancy's husband, owns over $17 million dollars of Star-Kist stock.

Hypocrisy-of-The-Sea indeed. And she called GWB corrupt. Sheesh.
