“Tuna Fish”
“Tuna”
Please, “Tuna Fish” is my father. Just call me “Tuna”.
You can’t tuna fish otherwise you risk it becoming a bass.
For the vote it would have to be “tuna”. But could you try and order less tuna, or none at all? Not only for the risks to your health, but it’s also really bad for the tuna. And there is no sustainable way to eat fish - not even tuna. Thanks.
Curious, are you against eating animals at all, or is there something specific to fish I’m unaware of?
Tried to phrase that in the most polite way, but I can’t get the phrasing to not sound like I’m being a snarky dick. I’m genuinely asking. I’m not vegan, but I do try to limit myself as much as I can given the diets of the other people I cook for. Also not a fan of fish in general, but I’ll cook and eat it when someone in the house goes fishing at the local lake or river. We never buy fish.
Thanks for fielding the question Wookie. And May I say Dharma that was the nicest question I ever got (ex Reddit so maybe Lemmy people are all lively). Honestly, if you (and everyone) cuts back on the red meat that’s good for you and great for the environment. Fish is a global problem - we have overfished the world. There is a good film about it, a few years old now “Sea-sporacy” if you have time. You are already in the top percentage because you are thoughtful about what you are consuming. Cool.
Not who you asked but I agree with OP. In my case because the way the fishing industry operates is adding to the problem. They destroy ecosystems, pollute the oceans, kill fish for their “magical” powers. Also there’s been many studies showing that you don’t really know what type of fish you’re actually eating
Most of those issues apply to any meat, and honestly even to vegetables.
As far as I know Tuna-fish is only a nth American thing and sounds very weird to my ears.
So this vote will likely be Nth America vs the rest.
Honestly, why only tuna fish?
Salmon-fish?
Chicken-bird?
There’s a few other redundant versions, like how they say “horse-back riding”. Why not bikeseat riding or plane cockpit flying?
Jay bird
Panda bear
Scarab beetles
Id never order a tuna fish sandwich but I’d make them. I’m from pnw USA. When I say tuna sandwich I feel like it would be different than something out of a can. Tuna salad probably makes more sense but ive never had any confusion when saying tuna fish. Doing some googling, “tuna” is also Spanish for “prickly pear”. So tuna could be used to describe a cactus fruit. In Cali there is a restaurant called “La tuna canyon”. Not cause of the fish.
No, I say “tuna salad” and then get disappointed when it’s just chunked tuna with no vegetables or dressing.
I ask for Tuna and am disappointed when I get Tuna Salad, which is tuna, mayo (I assume) and onion. Like… did I ask for that extra shit? No!
Tuna salad is objectively better though. Tuna (the fish) tastes good. It has lots of flavour but it is inherently dry, 100% solved by tuna salad.
Today I learned that there are people out that who do not share that position. Never met one before. Hello, dryfish eater.
