This can is delicious albacore steak cooked once, and pepper with a kick of Jalapeño for a firey start to your meal.

American Tuna is owned and operated by six American pole-and-line fishing families. With generations of traditional pole-and-line methods being passed down, these fishers we source this tuna responsibly and sustainably using one-by-one fishing methods which work in harmony with the ocean.

They only fish from the American pole-and-line albacore fishery that can be traced back from the can you buy to the vessel the fish is from. All the albacore tuna fished for American Tuna Inc. products is then hand filleted and hand packed in Oregon, with a low Mercury count and a high amount of flavour. This tuna is high in Omega 3 with 42g’s of Protein per 6oz serving! Moreover, no water, broth, oil, soy, preservatives, or fillers have been added.

Pole-and-line

This fishing method provides the most selective targeting of tuna possible, with minimal bycatch of non-target fish and marine wildlife like dolphins, turtles and sharks. Pole-and-line fishing targets schools of tuna near the ocean surface, and therefore only needs to use short lengths of line on each pole, typically  5-10m.
