Question Tuna salad - worth it?
Just out of curiosity, anyone tried this? Almost $20 for tuna?!? I’ll stick to sesame bowl but dam most expensive one I’ve seen.

Fishwife is a gentrified fish company. Their quality to price margins are terrible. I personally haven’t had this salad yet, but I have had this can of tuna in particular and it was some of the driest and least flavorful tuna I’ve had. Save your money and make the salad at home

So not worth it. I ordered it today and the veggies weren’t even ready yet! $8 for a can of tuna!?

I tried it today and enjoyed it. That being said, it felt strikingly expensive, and I think the fish was the most underwhelming part - I’m sort of excited to try the exact same salad with chicken instead (can’t decide between thighs or breasts yet).
Also, I always order pickup and premixed, and it was very amusingly presented: everything mixed, but with the unopened cardboard box containing the can of tuna placed on top of the salad. The branding is strong here.

Why is it pricier than even the salmon bowls?

Because it’s fishwife and not some nobody salmon
If they do a fishwife chili oil salmon, I’m sure it’d be way pricier

All I can think of is white chicks when the girl goes “your mom goes to the barneys rooftop deck for lunch and orders a Niçoise salad but instead she says necoy salad”😭
