Overall Rating: 3/5
Summary: juicy. I fried it without adding anything. It doesn't reaaalllly taste like tuna. Maybe a very slight hint of fishiness. The salt is light, which is nice. I'm confident that this could be good if used in a recipe (check out recipes below from the official website). I would have bought this again and tried it with a recipe, but I found that there is no indication of non-GMO certification on their official website. Boo.
Where to buy: buy online, US (Whole Foods, Harris Teeter)

The ingredients aren't bad...would be better if they were non-GMO. The nutritional profile is pretty good. For only 40 calories, it's super low fat, no cholesterol, and high in protein. On the downside, it's not very high in fiber and the sodium adds up when you have a reasonable serving (e.g. 1/2 cup to 1 cup, which means 300mg or 600mg respectively!)
