This isn't factually correct, but I advise everybody to watch for the day it is true. When the price of canned food suddenly escalates, you can be sure you're about to see TSHTF. Keep your stock up, friends.

The more expensive stuff is chunky where as the cheap stuff is slivers and oil.

They raised the prices to pay for production of "The Deadliest Catch."

By production, I mean drugs and alcohol for the boat crews.

By boat crews, I mean everyone involved.

It's not just that, it's the quality as well. For instance what used be called mush 15 years ago is now called chunk. It seems as if companies are getting people used to eating gruel.

At least there's some King Oscar.

Pound for pound, canned tuna seems to cost more than frozen tuna steaks here in Denmark now.
I was never much of a tuna guy anyway but fucking hell. Who's paying three dollars for a can?

I only eat Albacore white tuna no more of that "chunk" tuna with mercury

$3?
I buy Starkist Selects which is like the most expensive brand in my store and they're only like $1.50 a can.
What kind of hipster bullshit can of tuna are you buying?
