Ahh craving tuna!!

vanemarie11 · July 2012

So I've been craving a tuna sandwich all day but I've been told to stay away from it, I've also so heard it's okay to eat it but it can only be canned "chunk light"

Help!!

I eat tuna once a week, I love a good tuna salad on a bagel with tomato, lettuce and onion!! Go for it!!

You can have canned tuna (not albacore) 2-3 times a week. It's safe.

Canned tuna every now and then is perfectly fine

It's ok as long as it isn't in excess- go ahead and enjoy it!

I eat tuna once every week or two. It's fine.

I use this as a reference. I don't eat fish often but have been lately. It says you can have white albacore 3 times per month (6 oz servings). It is listed as high mercury though. I typically just like to stay away from those.

I have a tuna mini sub every week and I did my pregnacny with DD too. In moderation it's okay.

I think now I will have one today.

Last I heard, all Tuna was banned during pregnancy. I think this happened last year in June. https://www.americanpregnancy.org/pregnancyhealth/fishmercury.htm

Canned, chunk light is no more than six 6oz per month. It has lower mercury in it. I ate it in my last pregnancy, but this pregnancy I'm trying to avoid it even though I'm really wanting a Subway Tuna sub.

I eat a tuna sandwich once every week. I did with DD#1 as well. Just no tuna steak.

Thank you so much for this link! I was going crazy last week at a restaurant trying to figure out if I could eat walleye. Luckily I passed for some BBQ ribs!

I've had tuna on occasion and actually last night had sushi with seared tuna on top and it was delicious.
