Bumble Bee Tuna Salad with Crackers

Tuna salad is one of my favorite foods. With my many years of experience as a restaurant cook, I know several different ways of preparing tuna salad, but sometimes I just don’t feel like making it from scratch. Enter Bumble Bee Tuna Salad with Crackers. This ready – to – eat product is not only handy and convenient, but it also features a very tasty tuna salad, flavorful crackers and a tiny plastic spoon, with which to spread and eat the tuna salad.

Previously, I had purchased and eaten the similarly – packaged Bumble Bee Chicken Salad with Crackers and was very pleased with the product. I must say, the Bumble Bee Tuna Salad with Crackers is just as good, if not better than, the chicken salad. That’s really saying something, because I think that both of these salads are at least as good as most versions of homemade chicken salad and tuna salad. Since I already wrote a consumer product review of the Bumble Bee Chicken Salad with Crackers, I figured it would only be fitting to write a product review of the tuna salad. Presented here, in an effort to assist the consumer, is one food writer’s product review of Bumble Bee Tuna Salad with Crackers.

Size
The net weight of the Bumble Bee Tuna Salad with Crackers is 3.5 ounces. The entire package is compact, roughly the size of a disposable camera. While the physical size of this product is not particularly large, the contents are enough to provide for a satisfying snack or light meal.

Packaging
The packaging of Bumble Bee Tuna Salad is one of its main attributes, or selling points. The outer packaging of this item consists of a cardboard box that shows a photo illustration of the enclosed product, as well as all necessary nutrition facts. The box opens easily and can be also be re – closed.

Contained within the cardboard box are a small can of tuna salad, a sealed foil pouch of crackers and a cute little plastic spoon that comes in very handy. The tuna salad does not have to be refrigerated until the can is opened, making transport of this product very handy and convenient.

Texture(s)
The texture of the tuna salad in this product is pleasant and enjoyable. Good – sized chunks of tuna comingle with small pieces of onion, water chestnuts, celery and carrots in just the right amount of a tasty mayonnaise dressing. When placed upon the flavorful crackers that come with the item, the combination offers a delightful mouth – feel that is very satisfying.

Price
I purchased Bumble Bee Tuna Salad with Crackers at a CVS Pharmacy in Hartford, Conecticut. The normal retail price charged there is $1.99, but I bought this product when it was on sale. The sale price for Bumble Bee Tuna Salad with Crackers at CVS Pharmacy was $.99c. Considering the high quality and delicious flavor offered by this item, I think that the regular price and the sale price are very reasonable.

Taste / Flavor
The flavor of the tuna salad in this product is very good. To me, the salad tastes even better than most tuna salads offered at restaurants. It benefits greatly from the addition of the carrots, celery, onions and water chestnuts and it also features a slight sense of sweetness. The flavor of this tuna salad is so good, that I can eat it at any time of the day or night, even for breakfast. The crackers that are included in the Bumble Bee Tuna Salad with Crackers are also very tasty and provide for a great accompaniment to the salad.
