Frequently Asked Questions
Does Genova Yellowfin Tuna in Olive Oil contain allergens or mercury?
Genova Yellowfin Tuna in Olive Oil contains fish and is packed in olive oil; it does not contain milk, egg, soy, or tree nuts. Like other tuna, yellowfin naturally contains some mercury, so the FDA recommends limiting tuna servings, especially for young children and those who are pregnant or nursing; read the printed label for current guidance.
How should I store an opened can of Genova tuna?
Keep unopened cans in a cool, dry pantry. Once opened, transfer any unused tuna, along with its olive oil, to a sealed container, refrigerate, and use within 3 to 4 days. Do not leave opened canned tuna at room temperature for extended periods.
What is the difference between yellowfin and albacore tuna?
Yellowfin, also called ahi, tuna has a firmer texture and a more savory flavor than milder albacore tuna. This can is packed in pure olive oil rather than water or a vegetable oil blend, which adds richness to dishes like pasta, salads, and sandwiches compared to a plain water-packed can.
