k...i KNOW i live among some of the best fishing in the world, and i KNOW that fresh fish can be had by simply walking out onto my dock...HOWEVER,

I like my canned tuna. and i have to say, i would do just about anything for WHITE canned tuna. Anyone know where i can find some?

Also, if anyone is coming down, PLEASE bring me WHITE tuna in water...i would be ever grateful.

Island Supermarket has premium grade canned solid white albacore with no added vegetable stock.

Look for the gold cans, best tuna for burritos and salads. $6.95 per can though.

and worth evey penny! the regular stuff is only
fit for cat food.

Simon, pm me a recipe for the burrito please.

I just drain the tuna, combine with chopped celery, red pepper and roasted red peppers (optional), mix with a tablespoon or so of Hellman's and add curry powder, black pepper and Marie Sharpe's to taste, cool in fridge for an hour and then spread over flour tortillas, roll and eat. Another option is to add shredded Jack and nuke for a couple of seconds until the cheese melts.

Nice, sounds like something that would be great in a whole wheat pita also. Thanks bro!

when i was in SP i bought canned tuna from the island supermarket but it was SO expensive!!!

i suppose it's ok to spend more on that for a treat/snack on in a while... but for all time it would get costly!

Just today bought 9oz. Solid white albacore in water for $9.95 at the Island Supermarket...and it has yet to expire!

i wouldn't be surprised if it already hasn't!!

lol... but yeah it's expensive but sometimes worth it if u've got that craving!!

Windy W always brings a couple of the foil packs of tuna , gets the rest (onion&green pepper)in S.P. & we have tuna sandwiches for lunch.
The marie sharps Hot sauce is so good on tuna !!
A good break & a cheap lunch.

Lara - remind me in mid January and I'll bring you a bunch - it's so cheap here! ($6.95 a can???? - ouch!)

HOLY SH#$!
island super market man...they git ya!

i ate tuna nearly daily in the states...miss it dearly.

i do know marinas has chicken of the sea LIGHT tuna, which is at least better than the CRAP i ate last night, that made me almost sick...seriously

so, please please if anyone is coming down, please bring tuna! its a worthy cause....me!

There is another way of course, weasel your way onto one of the boats fishing offshore and catch and prep your own. The cost would probably be a lot cheaper.

errrrrrrrrrrrrr I was just in the city today and just got back and read your post. I got some at Brodie's a few weeks ago.

um...at the risk of being a hypocrite, i dont like my food to have a face. i prefer to believe that there are magical little somethings that wave a wand and somehow some stuff that tastes like tuna, but yet never had a face, wonderfully becomes a sandwich

having said that, if one of the guys could remove said face and traces of life, i might like to try it! in fact, are you and kathy volunteering to help prep for me? (hint hint)

lol, I have gotten used to whole fish with a face and eye staring at me. I actually find it normal now, when prepared by anyone else. Took a long time!

Lara I will take care of your Feb. fix, be there the 3rd. with lots of tuna.

Deja Vu

actually sick of eating yellowfin tuna and longfin(albacore) all summer and fall - on the grill, in salads, in dips yeek sick of fresh tuna anybody got a nice 4 or 5 pound mutton snapper they would like to part with?

If I get down in February as planned I'm bringing canned tuna instead of traveler's checks! :p

JZB, you sure on that price. I just picked up 4 cans at $6.95 each.

what is the brand name of the Tuna?

Maybe I can start a business from here in Dangriga selling tuna to San Pedro

haha! cute... why not though... it would probably sell...

Simon, Yep. Pulled the can out of the cupboard to make sure. Are you sure $6.95 is not for the 6oz can?

all I need is the brand name now, so I can go looking around town

if i could i'd help u invest!!

Ah, didn't even see that there were bigger ones. The one I have is Bumblebee Prime Fillet Solid White Albacore In Water - 6 oz. (in the gold can).

Thanks SimonB, next time I'm in town I'll go looking around in the shops.

Tell you what - I learn something new everyday!! Just sent the kids out for the day with a packed lunch containing.... cat food!!

You're in for it now! They have all day to plan their "get even" tactics.

Can't remember exactly what I pay, but usually stock up at Bottom Dollar or Food and Beverage when I'm in Belize City. They both carry Starkist and Bumblebee white albacore in water.

Leftover grilled freshly caught Belizean Wahoo makes a pretty mean "tuna" salad. Its white and a lot more tasty than anything you get in a can at any price. Try it while you're there.

Brodies charged $4.15/can.

What I want to know is did the kids even notice that it was cat food?

Is there something the someone from the states can bring to AC that is good for barter?

I hate canned tuna, but if I could trade some tuna for beer...

i have beer i wont be drinking. of course, its lighthouse, but its beer, and its wet, and if the tuna is right, will be delivered cold.

desperately seeking tuna

tuna for beer.....hmmmmm that's a new one?! how about MUTTON SNAPPER for SEX!

hey lara...coming down on the 15th...how many cans of tuna do u want???let me know and i will try to bring it down with me...kerry

Hey Kerry
Thanks so much! honestly, i eat it very often, so whatever you are comfortable bringing would be FANTASTIC! will gladly reimburse you!

thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hmmm....maybe i should get a tuna avatar instead of a boxing glove? or how bout a boxing glove ON a tuna? or a tuna being beat by a boxing glove??

does the brand name matter, or just albacore in water? where can i find u when i arrive? as far as reimbursement goes....just make me a killer tuna sandwich!

Hey Lara - those cool new avatars are down to $4 now!

I've got some avatars for $10 if you're interested.

PB, you're going about it all wrong

Not at all L. It's an old marketing tool, up the price on something and some people will buy it only because it is more expensive. Supposedly proving they can afford it, thus the reason for those big Macy’s (or previously Hudsons) bags they get to carry around. Unfortunately it’s usually people who can’t afford it in the first place.
And now my head hurts.

oh, I get it - I obviously just don't consume enough - cept of course when it comes to alcohol!

theres a phrase- beggers cant be chosers....

this applies to both the tuna AND the avatar

as for where to find me, um....well, i am almost always at fidos on friday night for some time, aside from that, let me know where You'll be and i'll find ya! if you plan on doing any of the traditional things like BC's on sunday, etc., let me know....you're probably easier since you'll most likely want to take in the events....

i'll make myself available to you as you are the one to save me from a life of cat food

I have a sneaking suspicion you don't overpay for much. PS-I don't usually go about things all wrong anymore, I would hope.

Damn, that slow typing kills me every time.

PB, pretty damn astute.
the typing gets us all sooner or later

lara..not sure where i'm staying yet...but will be there...bc's is always a must do for me...ask julie or charlene or ernie....they will know who i am...later gator....see ya next week

hey lara...got u 3 12 0z cans of starkist solid white albacore tuna in water....hope that helps...see u soon...kerry
