Dark Tuna
14 Answers
I've opened a can of tuna but it smells really strong and looks very dark in colour. I only bought it yesterday so it can't be off. It's a tin of Tesco tuna chucks in spring water but I've just noticed it says 'skipjacks' before the work tuna. What is this and is this the reason it's dark and strong smelling?

I know it is a coincidence but I gave my two moggies a tin of tuna the other night and they actually refused to eat it.
They only get it about once a month and they usually chase the plates around the kitchen until they manage to get every last drop.
Do you think that there is something my cats know that we, mere, humans don't?

There's a dilemma. If you are sure it's off you can get indignant, go back and complain. If you think it may be just lack of knowledge re tuna, well you don't wish to make a fuss over nothing.
If you don't fancy eating it then don't. I'd sling it because I hate those return confrontations, but I know my woman would march back with it.
But wait a while. A fish expert may tell you that it's just superior tuna, or something, soon.
