Well quite evidently the two photos posted look dry, so they've not just been drained, but squeezed out

Are they just spinning a line, or is the scale of the problem the net result of battered profit margins? Either way it looks like they are gillty of baiting the hook with shellfish intent.

I know that many producers do this. You actually don't get the amount you pay for. I love baking, and once, I tried to make a cake. I bought some ingredients for the first time, and according to the package, I had the right amount. But turns out I had way less than I was supposed to have. I don't think that suing them is the solution. But what I did was just switch to another producer.

Weights & Measures legislation was designed to regulate this. So report away!

That act doesn't mention the term "drained" as you narwell.(Obscure?)

I guess it's guidance when used on labelling.

The weight of the entire product is regulated I guess, and Princess are advising how much water/oil they added into the tin to give you an idea if how much tuna fish there is.

Do you think they can do something about it? If you have tried it before, I'd like to hear about the procedure. Because of what I usually do (I don't think that this is the right thing), but when I see people trying to buy this stuff from the store, I share my story. It's not like I stay there and wait for someone to come by; it just happened a couple of times. But it's a drop in the ocean. You know how frustrating it is when you ruin the dessert because the proportions aren't correct.
