When I was younger, the only seafood-ish thing I would eat would be Tuna. This being tuna Salad or my mom's tuna and noodles casserole. Honestly, I don't even think you can consider this seafood, but it was fish-ish and I ate it. I actually liked it. When I got married, my mom made me a cookbook of all my favorite meals from home. The Tuna and Noodles casserole was one of them. So I made it one evening. It was such a simple recipe, what could go wrong? I made it just like the recipe said, put it in the oven, and with in 10 minutes the smell had made me so sick. I had to go upstairs and lay down. I left my husband in charge of taking the casserole out of the oven when it was done. Because it smelled so bad, I didn't even taste it. It looked fine though.
I haven't made this recipe for YEARS, until I got this package of tuna from Wild Planet.
So I decided to give it another whirl. This time, it came out excellent and no foul smell.
I met the Wild Planet people at a race expo when they were giving out samples of their tuna. I am one who never takes meat samples from expos ( or grocery stores), but for some reason this nice lady convinced me to, so I took the little Dixie cup of tuna she was handing out. While I was sampling that, she was having a snack herself. She was eating the tuna right our of the silver pouch. She referred to it as a "tuna poptart". I thought that was kind of funny. But why not? This is a terrific product for athletes due to the abundant protein and omega 3 content – far greater than other brands, and without additives.
Guess What, Wild Planet is one of the cool sponsors of the Summer Run Scavenger Hunt and will be sending one participant one of their prize packs. Free lunch!
Do you ever take food samples at an Expo? What about meat ( or seafood) samples?
