to think tuna cans are the wrong size?

[saltlakecity]

Is it just me? Tuna cans are two big for one person (1 sandwich) but too small for 2. Not a biggie in the grand scheme of things but I've pondered it today.

Perfect for a tuna salad for.two though

[Indiaplain]

I buy those mini ones that come in packs of 3- ideal for one portion

[PurpleDaisies]

I just eat the tuna without the sandwich bit. Big squirt of sweet chilli sauce and eat it straight from the tin.

[AuntieStella]

Why doesn't tuna come in cans with ring pulls?

(And is the Tuna family still flourishing?)

[dingit]

No, my cat enjoys the leftovers

[ScarlettDarling]

AuntieStella tuna does come in cans with ring pulls.

Don't know about the tuna family though!

[AuntieStella]

Mine didn't! (Waitrose own label)

I really had to fossick to the back of a drawer to find a can opener. Not a pleasant experience, I'll have you know!

[AliceInUnderpants]

I just make two sandwiches

is a fat bitch

[Lilaclily]

Aren't there still big and little tins ?

[PPie10]

It's more than enough for two people though

[emwithme]

YY...two cans is perfect for 3 servings (so I make up three portions of tuna pasta salad for lunch in one go). Half-sized cans are too small.

[BarbaraofSeville]

You can get tuna in ring pull cans but it's a lot harder to drain properly.

[Jaimx86]

Eat a regular can for lunch every day. Would like a twiddly bit more in tbh.

[PPie10]

Barbara you need to pull the ring back but not completely remove the cover, then press down firmly for a few seconds with the can tipped over. It drains perfectly.

[Floggingmolly]

You can get tiny tins.

[x2boys]

Um I made one tuna and mayo sandwich with one yesterday

[FinallyFreeFromItAll]

I prefer to think of them as making a deliciously generous tuna sandwich

Me too

Or it makes enough tuna mayo pasta for 2

[cornishglos]

Soup cans... are they for one person or two?

[Floggingmolly]

One!!

[CoffeeCoffeeAndLotsOfIt]

I like sainsburys own mini tins in a pack of three. Tuna in olive oil - yum yum

[MaidOfStars]

My husband always has one of the small cans in a sandwich. Is this too much?

[thenightsky]

Depends on whether contents of the tin are 'tuna flakes' or 'tuna steak'.

Steak is more tuna crammed into a smaller tin and therefore better value.

I've studied this, obv.

[Ohsotired123]

Perfect for you and to give a bit to the cat

[FinallyFreeFromItAll]

Soup cans... are they for one person or two?

I think most people have 1 to themselves however I've always thought they were 1.5 portion size and the smaller tins 1person.
