Warning

While there are many benefits of eating tuna fish, everyday consumption is generally not recommended. Like all large fish in the top levels of the ocean food chain, tuna can contain mercury. Mercury is not good for the developing nervous systems of young children and fetuses, which is why kids and pregnant or nursing women are advised to reduce their consumption of warm water tuna.

If you want some low mercury tuna, we suggest Albacore Tuna from the cold clean and pristine waters of British Columbia (which we carry!)
