Every time I go to this one place to get falafel wraps, there's a guy either in front of me or behind me in line, asking for a giant ice cream scoop of tuna fish to be slapped on top of a plate of pasta. It's enough to ruin your whole weekend.

Don Van Gorp, midwest regional VP, marketing (誤訳侮辱), Wednesday, 15 February 2017 22:55 (seven years ago) link

I probably wouldn't frequent a falafel place that offered that as an option

yum

I prefer pink salmon in sandwiches but tuna, mayo, fine diced onion and a load of dill is xcelent. Sweetcorn in there's good too, if a baguette shop happens to add it in.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Wednesday, 15 February 2017 23:05 (seven years ago) link

Tuna fish sandwiches are delicious. They don't need much else, but crunchy iceberg lettuce is a nice addition. I am also partial to tuna melts.

o. nate, Thursday, 16 February 2017 02:12 (seven years ago) link

My only qualms with tuna melts is that hot tuna and mayo can be a bit icky

I'm ambivalent about tuna, but I feel the need to point out that Laura Nyro was the ultimate tuna fish sandwich connoisseur:

"Laura didn't really cook," explains Geffen. "Tuna Fish--you opened a can and put mayonnaise in it." Tuna fish had also been Gilda Nigro's specialty, so perhaps her daughter had a genetic predispotion. When it came time to name Nyro's publishing company, Bomser sauys it was he who suggested the name Tuna Fish Music. "She loved the idea," he says. "I mean, that's the only thing she knew how to make."

"I wouldn't call it anything else," Nyro said of her company's name. As for the tuna itself, she insisted it be Bumble Bee brand, white meat, with Hellman's mayonnaise, a teaspoon of cream cheese, some diced red onion, and a pinch of lemon pepper. From there, she said, you could branch out.

At the moment, I am working at a Subway inside of a Walmart.

I had a customer come in one day and everything started out smoothly. This lady had been coming in for quite some time, so I kind of recognized her. She’s your typical Walmart customer. Overweight, looking like trailer trash and riding (as we call them in our store) a fat cart. She orders a footlong tuna sandwich and wants us to put all the veggies on it. So, like I said, everything was going smooth until after the veggies were placed on the sandwich. That’s when she said to me, “This may be a strange request.” At this point, I’m thinking that I’ve heard many a people say that, and it’s never really that strange. So, I ask her what she wants and she proceeded to ask me to put 4 white macadamia nut cookies on her tuna sandwich. I think I gave her a really disgusted look, but I’m not sure. I obliged and placed the cookies on her sandwich, but she wasn’t done yet. She then asked me to cover the cookies with vinegar until they were soggy and ready to fall apart. Then to top it off, she made me double up on the mayo over the soggy cookies. At this point, I felt like I wanted to puke all over her sandwich. I think I may have a little into the back of my throat.

This lady is now a regular customer and she gets this same thing every single day.

Probably best to use a fairly dry tuna salad for a good melt.

Neanderthal, Thursday, 16 February 2017 03:16 (seven years ago) link

i'm not reading this entire thread but for the record i have a visceral negative reaction to canned tuna that traces back to my early years as a very selective eater who found most foods vile. these days i'll eat pretty much anything and am totally down for some tasty canned sardines or a nice seared tuna steak but there's no way in hell i'm ever cracking open a can of tuna.

call all destroyer, Thursday, 16 February 2017 03:19 (seven years ago) link

tuna salad is great as long as someone besides me is making it.

Neanderthal, Thursday, 16 February 2017 03:28 (seven years ago) link

What I find strange is theres plenty of other seafood that pongs way more than tuna but people seem to only ever complain about tuna being smelly.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Monday, 20 February 2017 04:35 (seven years ago) link

Mackerel sandwiches aren't very common (or people cracking open a can of it at their desk).

nickn, Monday, 20 February 2017 06:00 (seven years ago) link

Hardboiled eggs are another example and people do eat them at their desk and of course in the lunchroom

I love em tho

Tinned tuna is fine if you eat it soon. There are more things that smell bad that people eat. Ever since i moved to LA i find there is a lot more stinky food here that wasn't smelly where i moved from. Might be because LA is warmer and people don't keep foods at the right temperature, but it has made me more cautious of where I'm getting it from -- deli meat, beef and pork for example

F♯ A♯ (∞), Monday, 20 February 2017 06:11 (seven years ago) link

I don't think of tuna as being a fishysmelly fish. I've had more offensive fish lunches at work. I had leftover fish curry once. I should have been sacked.

Hey Bob (Scik Mouthy), Monday, 20 February 2017 08:57 (seven years ago) link

tuna smells gross - the smell of other fish is just a more pure fishy smell - tuna has a sort of dampness to the smell.

There are Italian-style tuna salad sandwiches that don't have mayo. Usually lemon juice, capers, olive oil, a bit of mustard.

don't worry dud voters, we classic voters will not require you to partake of even the tiniest morsel of a tuna sandwich against your wishes, with or without mayonaisse. we are a liberal bunch by and large and peaceable, if not overly provoked.
