Light Tuna, Canned, Drained

EverydayCannedDrained

Light tuna (canned, drained) refers to processed skipjack tuna that has been cooked and preserved in water or oil before draining. This variety contains significantly less mercury than larger tuna species while providing a lean, high-protein option with minimal fat content. The canning process creates a shelf-stable protein source commonly used in sandwiches, salads, and casseroles, offering convenience without requiring refrigeration until opened.
