I don’t drain tuna because I’m a disgusting person who likes to eat gross stuff

I prefer tuna in olive oil. I put that in a bowl and the only thing I might add is a handful of capers and some cracked black pepper. I soak up the oil with a piece of bread.
I like the little cans packed in olive oil too. Straight from the can with Fritos.
Plain or the chili cheese? I a weakness for the chili cheese. Mrs. King complains when I bring them home, saying I don't need to be eating garbage. She is out of the house until Friday. When the cat is away, the mouse eats tuna and Fritos. :o

Usually regular, but I do occasionally like the chili cheese.

The flavor applied to the Chili Cheese Fritos is more subtle than most chip coatings. I can't stand Doritos powder.

I only noticed, I don't study these things, but, based on the timestamps of your last two posts, you thought about that for half an hour before you decided it was worth sharing. A tip of my fedora your way. Thank you.

I am not Rain Man, I just happened to notice as I scrolled down.

I agree. I have never understood the appeal of Doritos. They have too much flavor.

I don't think they make Taco Doritos anymore. They might be nice with tuna fish.... I will have to check at the store tomorrow.

My egg salad can get pretty creative. Tuna salad is typically the traditional tuna, mayo, salt and pepper, and then whatever I feel like adding filler/spice-wise. Today it was that plus chopped red peppers and capers.

I'm a big fan of fresh jalapeno slices with fish. Especially on the rare occasion that I have sushi. That bit of spice opens up the flavors big time
They were out of the Devil’s Spit but I got these.

Ok, I ate some if these yesterday and they are def not spicy. But they are good b&b chips. Keeping my eyes peeled for the devils spit.

I too have a serious weakness for Fritos - especially the chiili cheese ones, but it had never occurred to me to eat them with tuna straight from the can. Hmmm...
Because sometimes the body just wants canned fish. 🦪

It's a surprisingly good combination.

Many times it's just skipjack or albacore tuna steak dumped out of the can topped with random spice from the drawer and a dollop of mayo.
