Ortiz Yellowfin Tuna in Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Yellowfin doesn’t get the respect it deserves. Bonito del Norte gets all the attention it seems. We believe this is a result of the constant confusion of the quantitative and the qualitative. People can’t seem to resist ranking things that have different qualities, things that can be compared for their unique geniuses but which are instead forced into some sort of hierarchical arrangement. That’s a lot of philosophy for the promotional copy for a can of tuna, sorry. What we mean to say is that while albacore is whiter, and the texture is, perhaps, finer in places, that doesn’t make yellowfin inferior. It just means you should have a different expectation. Yellowfin isn’t a boring white, and it has more to say in the chew. This is a great tin of tuna from one of Spain’s legendary producers. And the olive oil is organic, too.
