LIARS. as everyone says, its just an underhanded way to increase unit price. they sneak it in there, in a can that almost looks the same (just a bit thinner), in hopes that no one will notice. the next thing that will happen is that, when everything has quieted down and they think the size switch is a success, they will increase the price, so they get a two stage increase. over time, no one will remember that cans used to be 6 oz, just like i dont remember them being 7oz, and they will have pulled it off. good job guys.

the consistency of the product is another issue. all the 'old timers' i talk to say that tuna used to be solid and brighter in color, you know, looking more like actual fish that someone would catch, as opposed to the gross pulp they push on us now. when you process tuna, some of what you have is solid, and the leftover that lies in the bottom of the equipment is the gross process waste. clearly, the solid stuff is more expensive than the liquidy by-product, and over the years, in their greedy quest for more profit, more of the waste has made it into the cans, until you have what we have now: the 'regular' tuna is now pure process waste, and if you want the slid stuff you have to buy the super expensive 'solid albacore'. has anyone noticed, though, that even the solid albacore is now getting mushier and mushier? what this means is that soon we will have 3 grades, the regular, the white, and the 'new solid', at 3 times the price of course.

these guys are true scoundrels. liars. cheats. [message edited]
