Maybe more.
I did about 80 cans last time. I never regret getting a lot of these - so easy for lunches when you can't be bothered
I did about 80 cans last time.
Didn't it give you constipation?
Yeah, I'm down for about 40-80 this time. Really good tuna.
Sirena Tuna Varieties 95g $1.35
Might have a big serve later…
Step aside John West, the true best is here
the true best is here
Sole Mare are on special ????
Never heard of that brand before, you reckon it's the best?
Try them, I prefer them to Sirena, although Sirena is pretty good too…
I like the Sole Mare mackerel
I prefer mackerel to tuna too…
Serious question.
The general consensus is that Sirena Tuna, is the 'best tasting' tuna compared to other canned tuna brands? What makes Sirena so good?
Is it the type of tuna they use? I have tried Sirena tuna before and yes i do agree that it's the best tasting canned tuna.
But i can't wrap my head around why it's so good.
Couldn't tell you why, but the reason for me is that the tuna tastes "fleshier" and way less mushy than other brands. It has a more meaty texture in my opinion
It's the best brand hands down. It actually tastes like real tuna and not mushy how you described it.
Not 100% sure but maybe it's because it's kept in oil rather than water
You can also get John West in olive oil…
@jv: It's an oil blend. Ingredients say 65% tuna, 12% olive oil. Keeping in oil is probably not the only reason it's better though
It's an oil blend. Ingredients
Sirena uses an oil blend too…
OIL 17.2% (SUNFLOWER AND EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL)
I've tried all Chilli tunas at supermarkets, Sirena just tastes better including the texture. Rest just feels like minced fish and a piece of chilli was thrown in there which does nothing for the flavour
Most people say it's because it contains yellowfin tuna.
And a hint of dolphin.
I’ve always thought it was because of the type of tuna. John West and most other brands use Skipjack. Sirena uses Yellow Fin, which is also more expensive to source, thus the higher price of Sirena.
Coles and Woolworths also sell thier in house brand yellow fin (as well as skipjack, yellowfin variety is a bit more expensive). This tastes better than most other tuna, but still doesn't taste as good as sol mare or sirena. However it's interesting to note that they use much less salt.
Could be down to the salt, although adding your own salt after taking it out of the can doesn't make it as good as the Italian canned tuna brands. Perhaps adding salt isn't the same as having it marinating in the salt oil for months….
This is as far as my tuna analysis has reached.
A can of heavy metals, such healthy…
Time for a mercury recharge! Would take another 6 months of EDTA/DMSO to counter this lol
I'd like to see another sale on the large tins again. Last one was so long ago! :(
If you have constant sleepless nights wondering if a tuna might also contain pork, then fear not, this is halal certified.
There's no logo on the can to advertise their stupidity.
Why would the tuna contain pork?
i think thats the point of his statement, sirena went and got a can of tuna helal certified. That being said, helal certification also covers sea creatures with no scales (crustaceans) as they are also not eaten by the muslim community so the certification still makes sense as they are certifying the fact its only fish in their product.
I'm pretty excited for this
Does the 185g just not go on sale anymore?
bigger fish are harder to catch
The Italian Style and "Lite" 185g varieties were on sale in my local coles this weekend.
These used to be half price @ $1 !!!!!!!!!!
It's the price you pay for over-fishing in our oceans.
My go to lunch is a tin of the spicy/tangy jalapeno tuna, a tin of lemon pepper tuna and one small bowl of Sunrice Active Blend rice (microwaved for about 45 secs) all mixed together - lunch sorted!
I am sorry to be the carrier of bad news but … if that tuna is soooo good why do they add Lemon Basil & Chilli ???
Good tuna fish is best by itself. No added flavors, no added anything different than tuna fish.
Remember, with enough spices and sauces even cardboard tastes good …
If you enjoy the same tuna everyday, more power to you.
Might be incomprehensible, but some people enjoy having a bit of variety in life.
Good for you if variety is your motto. But it is not the point.
However … this thread started as "how good this tuna is".
SO, if this tuna is SO good, why to mix it with other flavors.
If spices and sauces make it unique then the tuna is irrelevant.SOOO this Sirena preparation is absolutely divine. Says nothing about the tuna.
Pizza is great as it is.
No one will say the black olives are the best in the world.
Or the anchovies.Happy variety :)
Awesome timing. Time to fill my work fridge with 250 cans.
Made in Indonesia :/
When did the country of origin change?
Finally. How many can you fit in a supermarket trolley?
