How many cans of tuna do you eat a day?

[equilibrium]

I usually have one, but is it alright (safe, high levels of mercury) to have more than one.

[Jojax]

chicken and salmon ftw here. no tuna... yet.

[domenickb]

I honestly can't stand canned tuna.

[LS2Stew]

Nil.

[TulsaCoker]

I have three cans a week. Not that I'm worried about the mercury but three is enough. Chicken and turkey the rest of the week.

[Flaringo]

I usually have like 6 a week maybe.

[mistahans]

I average probably about 1.5 a day.

I'm poor, busy, and need the protein.

[jbower23]

I typically have 3 cans of tuna a day. I also grill Tilapia. I guess I'm part fish???

Chicken is so overated to me now. When I get tired of eating fish, I'll switch back to chicken.

[lancs_hotpot]

Can be up to 3 or 4

I was doing up to 6-8 cans of tongol tuna a day at one point, didn't have any problems with mercury. Sick of tuna now.

Tuna doesn't make economical sense unless it's on sale. If it was still easy to find for 50-80 cents a can I'd be doing 1 or 2 a day easily.

[Yaxley]

Two cans a day, is cheap and I can take them with me everywhere. =)

[Gracehbd]

I have 2 most days. Good, cheap, unadulterated protein.

[MeMojo]

1 can of tuna daily here.

My diet has lots of fish in it anyways, since one wants protein from various sources (chicken, beef and turkey are not enough).

i read somewhere that u shuldnt have more than 3 a week.

[mrjimmy2308]

where did you read that? I eat 2 or 3 a day, im kinda sick of it, but its easy. I read somewhere about blending it with apple juice, sounded sick, but i tried it... pretty good, hardly taste the tuna and you can just drink it down. 37grams protein 20 seconds baby

[I3odyI3uilder]

3-4 cans a day 5-6 days a week.

lol thats disgusting


OP: I eat 4-5 a week, sometimes more, I try to mix in canned salmon as well (less protein, but more good fat, and tastes better i think). Never tried the canned chicken...

[mrjimmy2308]

Never tried the canned chicken...

if it aint fish i wont eat it from a can, the thoguht or turkey or chicken makes me sick. Tuna seems right, a can is its home.

[mwolfeass39]

3-4 cans a day 5-6 days a week.

You're kidding right? I shudder to think of the insane level of protein intake...


Personally, I am within the realm of 0-1 cans per day, 7 days a week.

Its not really that much man. What 3 can's of tuna = about 100 grams of protein..

[semajio1]

Ahh, 3 tins usually, i bought 45tins about 3 weeks ago., got like 15 left loL!! love the stuff!!!

[KineticWall]

slightly off topic, what do u guys eat ur tuna on, all that bread owns my carb intake

[Aindreas]

Double Q canned salmon is so much tastier than tuna and about as cheap as a lot of brands.

[Paumen]

I vomit just from the smell of Tuna (serious)

2 slices of bread "owns" your carb intake?
If so, put it on a salad.

[mrjimmy2308]

or one slice of bread, or just blend it with juice/water

Straight out the tin..... lol it aint that bad at all

[141455675]

Rarely ever. It's foul IMO. Unless in a dish i.e pasta/with pesto or garlic+lemon.

A tuna bake is nice. Yeah but out of the can, in bread,on crackers, plain, disgusting!
