Jingthing Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 (edited) News from Chiang Mai is that there is a shortage/price hike coming soon for canned TUNA FISH. I know many westerners like canned TUNA FISH. I know I do. In Chiang Mai, some stores are now rationing how many cans of canned TUNA FISH you can buy at one time. So this is a fin's up. Time to stock up on canned TUNA FISH. It keeps a long time. In the can. Edited February 15, 2011 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses G. Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Wern't they saying that Thailand will soon be the HUB of canned tuna just a few weeks ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backfromouterspace Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Well if a man in in a bar in the busy tuna fishing port of Chiang Mai says there is a shortage of tuna then it must be true. Cue panic buying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinnieTheKhwai Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Pattaya has been the hub of fresh tuna for a while though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laughing Gravy Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Wern't they saying that Thailand will soon be the HUB of canned tuna just a few weeks ago? No they were saying tuna will be in a TUB. After eating canned tuna for years every day, I simply can't stand it now . I always prefer salmon now :jap: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moo9 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Tuna is way too cheap considering the constantly decreasing fresh Tuna population. Besides this it is often contaminated by heavy metals. As much as I like it one has to be aware that the prices are not reflecting costs and population. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredob43 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Just been in my local shop have load's. Not Pattaya as after your post it will have none. Good one is tuna in spring water not oily or fishy, drain add mayo pepper stuff in french stick delish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 Yes I like the tuna "steaks" packed in water. Tuna is OK in moderation and also has heart healthy benefits similar to salmon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing love your post very informative food wise. Just had a quick work out, no not at Tony's, I make it that you make on average 15+ post a day. Question how the F. do you ever get time to go out and eat. Or is it meal's on wheel's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darrel Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 With or without the current panic buying, in a few years' time there probably wont be any tinned tuna at all. Numbers are dropping very fast indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 The "Sea-lect" brand tuna in brine sold at 7-11 is surprisingly good; B32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
