tinned tuna

[nappyaddict]

ok so tinned tuna isn't oily fish but what about tuna in those john west pouches?

Confused by your post.

Oily fish is defined by the fish flesh and not by the way it is prepared/processed.

Tuna is not an oily fish any way that it is prepared...

Tuna counts as oily fish only if it's fresh here .

(I'm a doctor, you know)

I am obviously missing a joke/theme...

I didn't either, tbh. It's still low fat - it must be those healthy oil doodah-wotsits. Omega things.

(my doctor credibility is waning now, isn't it?)

the downside is the mercury...

tuna has omega 3 oils, that are lost by the processing in tinned tuna.

some of the nutrients in canned fish do remain after canning, but in much lower quantities. you should use the liquid they're in (oil or water) and not drain it away. apparently

what about in the pouches - is it the same?
