    Love Tuna but only in brine or springwater. Especially with mayonaise and chopped onion. Oh might just have that for lunch today. I just but the chunks offers when they come up. Think it the Princes ones been using lately

    Its worth rmemebering that Tuna Chunks will always be cheaper then Tuna Steak. This is because with a steak you are getting a segment of fish, but with chinks its lots of different parts. The nutritional info is not really very different- if different at all, but the price will be much higher for steak then chunks, peices or flakes.
  • What are the best, cheap tuna in oil? I don't like brine!! I did also get John West when it was on special offer and I know some places have got it on offer again but I was wondering if there's something just as nice but even cheaper out there?
  • My sainsburies has a sale (end of line?) on a special springwater tuna steak ...so i got quite a few cans for the same price as the cheapo rubbish tuna

    I had half price pack of princes or JW from tesco several weeks ago and they seemed only half full.

    John west tuna is £2.50 for 4 tins in Waitrose
  • Asda are doing 4 pack of John West Tuna @ £3.00 (ish) or buy 2 (8 tins) for £4.00

    I think it's a great deal.
