It was 25 years ago that I recognized "chunk light" tuna is crap and I switched to "solid white" tuna. And that was the best until this stuff came along. We bought a six pack of it at Costco and I will never go back to the previous stuff. Keep an eye out for it on your next shop. Solid, meaty, full of flavor. And sustainably pole and line caught. What? Yes! Get your tuna and not feel guilty that they might be catching up dolphins in their nets because they don't. [Review 15521 overall, 1025 of 2021, number 303 in California.] read more

Wild Planet - Wild Planet tuna - Specialty Food Near Me - Mckinleyville, California

If you are dire need of vomiting then open a can of the wild Pacific sardines and that will do it for you. They are tasteless and reek of a strong fishy smell. Best leave it for the critters in the backyard although I can't guarantee they won't get sick. read more

Wild Planet is the best canned tuna. Some of the best sustainable caught fish around. Their high standards for sustainable fishing practices and methods from which they source for product, make them the benchmark. I buy their albacore and skipjack tuna in the can by the case, and in the pouch for single servings, it is amazing the difference in the quality of the final product in comparison to its mass market competitors. They source their tuna from only small scale artisanal pole and troll fisheries, considered the best method in harvest technique by watchdog organizations that monitor seafood catch methods and practices. The Pacific Salmon is remarkable and again, using best method practices for its sourcing of product makes it a solid sustainable choice. A little bit more than its competitor's but knowing that you are not harming the environment by what you are consuming has an outweighed value that a few pennies can not make up for. They use the Monterrey Bay Seafood Watch program as the guideline for best choice sustainability. This same methodology for sourcing, is applied to their entire line of seafood; including west coast pink shrimp, sardines and anchovies. Another great behind the Redwood Curtain business. 00217 read more

DAMN ... FINALLY CANNED TUNA THAT I APPROVE!!! BEST ... Texture and taste I have to try a different batch from a different source. Got it at Costco. Without any expectation in mind. Imagine my amazement when I tried it and re-taste it.\ Packed in water!!! I have tried many brand of canned tuna and they are always overcooked. I have tried ... many higher priced canned tuna from Italy Spain Protugal both water and oil packed (previously I thought only the most moist one have to be packed in oil) I always either drown it in either good EVOO or aioli. This was so good ... I enjoyed it straight! Of course I will add some EVOO or aioli (80 percent reduction for this product!!!) read more

Quite simply the highest quality canned tuna I have every eaten. Line-caught, sustainably sourced and dolphin safe. I will no longer be buying my canned tuna from trader joe's. read more

I purchased a 6 oz can of Wild Planet, Wild Alaska Sockeye Salmon from Spouts Saturday morning May 14, 2016 and ate 2 oz that evening for dinner. I was sick all night and into today with fever, stomach pain, nausea and everything that comes with food poisoning. I'm currently taking ciprofloxacin to kill the bacteria. My wife and i ate all the same food except she declined to have the salmon. She thought it smelled bad. She was right, it was bad. Lot no. is 295NL 2R7ZS USA 3013093. read more

I bought a package of Wild Planet sardines that, on opening, looked like it could be of questionable safety. Called Wild Planet for clarification and their customer service wowed me. The person who took care of me was totally present (so many other, lesser, companies make their front-facing customer service reps into micromanaged, script-following robots) and took care of the problem courteously and with dispatch. I have been buying Wild Planet's sardines, tuna, and salmon for years. Their seafood is delicious. Their fishing methods and sources help long-term viability of food fish populations as well as typical "bycatch" populations (dolphins, whales, sharks, turtles, birds, and other animals who get caught and die in indiscriminate, cheaper methods like longlines and bottom trawls). And now I know that their customer service is equally stellar! Well done, Wild Planet. May you live long and prosper. read more
