The Woolies "tunaverse" is full of options and possibilities. Find everyday staples like canned shredded tuna or tuna chunks in brine or oil or explore the rest of the range. For on-the-go snacking and light meals, choose the 85g tuna pouches in flavours including Mexican salsa, tomato and herb, and black pepper-and-lime dressing. The albacore tuna fillets (available at selected stores) are fantastic in pasta dishes or elevated salads. Woolworths' canned, jarred and pouched tuna is 100% traceable and responsibly caught in South Africa, the USA and New Zealand as part of the Fishing for the Future initiative, which aims to support coastal communities and protect our oceans and future stocks of tuna.
