but it is like the fish version of chicken breast.
I must also concur with this. It's a rather bland fish when cooked as a steak. Probably the best use of good tuna is in sushi. I love spicy tuna rolls.

It's wtf to me that someone would go to that trouble for a snack.

poaching a tuna steak in olive oil to make sandwich mix for a cracker is the crowning triumph of this thread

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.

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

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

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.

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

dud, has mayo

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

Which nationality is responsible for the mayo-inclusive sandwich?

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.
