Goddamn do I love tins of fish. I just destroyed 2 cans of Beach Cliff herring in hot sauce with a sleeve of buttery club crackers. I grabbed a sampling during the last grocery shopping, and I also have tins of king oscar anchovies and polar "kipper snacks". I assume they will also be delicious. There used to be another thread like this that suggested +price = +quality, and that advice was dead-on. I am open to suggestions from strangers posting on forums.somethingawful.com for the most pro methods of eating various tinned fishes. Discuss itt plz also: i love the amine thread tag bc it always reminds me of x-NH3+

tuna does kick rear end. I like to cook whatever pasta noodles I have on hand, then toss in a can of tuna, whatever veggies + spicy italian salad dressing. loving pro-tier dinner, and takes >30 mins and minimal effort.

See, something like this I have never cared for. Tuna mac? Tuna in ramen? Tuna helper? No thank you. I would prefer to eat them separately. I am glad that you have a convenient, balanced dinner available to you w tuna though. What kind of tuna do you like? Albacore in olive oil is the tastiest but also has the highest mercury. I usually just go for chunk light in packets, mashed w avocado.

I will defs try this The salmon in packets is also awesome for mixing with whatever you happen to be eating. Instant +10 protein/deliciousness Honestly the only tuna I've really had is the bumblebee brand canned stuff. I'm sure it's just chock-full of good old Hg. Living in the mountains of NW Georgia (of Squidbillies fame), my choices are p limited

is the olive oil kind generally higher-quality than the hot sauce kind? i can see tomato sauce and hot sauce having the same masking effect

I tried sardines for the first time yesterday thanks to the goon thread. I bought some crackers, a tin of sardines in olive oil and some hot sauce. I can confirm that they were awesome, although I was a little apprehensive because they looked like headless minnows. I'm going camping next weekend, will need to bring me a few tins. Also some boiled peanuts.

I have a vague memory of being goku-level drunk and being at the commissary, wanting to make a red-lobster-style seafood pasta dish. I grabbed 1 can of everything from the ocean in a tin, then dumped it into a pan of ramen noodles over my hot plate in the barracks. I don't remember actually eating it, but it must have been God-tier good bc I then remember waking up for an 8 mile run feeling perfect.

Hell Yeah posted:ya but you could say that about anything? I don't think so....leave the tuna out and it's definitely missing something. I think its the brininess of the tuna that adds a certain je ne sais quoi Point is, it doesn't have the slightest hint of tuna taste to it and is downright delicious

this is the kind of stuff my grandfather loved he lived through the depression and world war two and never really recovered, so he always loved to eat weird foods that, im realizing now, were probably things like military rations and sea rations corned beef hash spam concoctions kippered snacks on crackers with whatever sauce was lying around my grandmother on the other hand made some of the most efficient likenesses of meals you've ever managed to keep down, she was a real depression queen that one. a fantastic cook, by all accounts, but cheap as a scot (she was a scot who lived through the depression and it showed, her meatloaf was terrifyingly palatable. defied explanation and description)

cheap ingredients + x = delicious meal is like a superpower, your grandma seriously owned Out of curiosity, did she ever use potted meat? I used to eat the "salted, potted + formed" glass jars of ridiculously NaCl-ful mystery-meat-byproduct all the time, but I can't stand it nowadays. It seems like it used to be a national staple, though. Like old-timey hotdogs
