I make a point of buying one new item every time I go grocery shopping. It's a way to avoid shopping cart complacency and its a challenge to keep things fresh and new. A couple of years ago, Clover Leaf's brand of spicy thai chili tuna made its way into my grocery cart.The first thing I noticed was how convenient it was. The pull-top lid makes it easy to get inside. It's the perfect size for a lunch bag.
But the taste. Holy cow.
It's so deliciously spicy and zippy (helped, in part, by a large chili in each can) that as soon as I tried it, I grew worried that it would be pulled from the shelves lest it offend the bland Canadian palate.
The best part is that this tuna can liven up a green salad like nobody's business. You won't even need salad dressing.
Haven't tried it? Now's the perfect time to give it a whirl. Sobey's has it on sale for .88¢. I bought ten cans on the weekend.

It's on my deserted island list.
The spicy peanut is awesome and the lemon + pepper is orgasmic.
Every time I would leave Toronto to go back home, I swear U.S. customs wondered what the hell I was really smuggling.
My only grievance, bigger cans. (the tuna that is)
What's the nutritional on this? Isn't it fatty?
Only 4 Grams of fat per can.
(mostly the good fats and omega's)
