Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between "Chunk" and "Flaked" tuna?
Chunk tuna features larger, more intact pieces of fish, offering a meatier texture. Flaked tuna is more finely broken down, making it easier to spread but less "substantial" in salads.
Is Clover Leaf tuna dolphin-safe?
Yes. Clover Leaf is committed to sustainable fishing practices and all their tuna products are certified dolphin-safe.
How many sandwiches can I get from one 1.8 kg can?
Depending on your portion size, a single 1.8 kg can typically yields approximately 20 to 25 standard 3-ounce servings of tuna salad.
Is this tuna gluten-free?
Pure tuna in water is naturally gluten-free. However, always check the label for the most current manufacturing information regarding the facility's cross-contamination protocols.
