Canned Albacore Tuna, Drained

EverydayCannedDrained

Canned albacore tuna is a precooked seafood product made from the white-fleshed albacore species (Thunnus alalunga), preserved in water or oil and drained before packaging. It features a firmer texture and milder flavor compared to darker-fleshed tuna varieties like skipjack, while providing high-quality lean protein and omega-3 fatty acids. Though nutritionally dense, albacore contains higher mercury levels than smaller tuna species, warranting moderated consumption for pregnant individuals and young children. The drained preparation concentrates its protein content and ensures immediate usability in salads, sandwiches, or cooked dishes.
