About CHUNK LIGHT TUNA IN VEGETABLE OIL, CHUNK LIGHT IN VEGETABLE OIL
Meijer Chunk Light Tuna in Vegetable Oil (variant B) is a canned tuna product sold under the Meijer private-label brand by Meijer, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan. This USDA entry documents the same product as variant A (id 1924425), sharing an identical ingredient list (chunk light tuna, soybean oil, vegetable broth containing soy, and salt) and identical nutritional values. The two entries likely represent different UPC codes or can sizes for the same product formulation.
Oil-packed chunk light tuna provides a different texture and flavor profile from water-packed versions, with the oil contributing lubricity and richness that many consumers associate with traditional tuna preparations. The soybean oil medium also means that drained tuna retains more calories and fat than water-packed tuna after straining, as some oil remains absorbed in the muscle tissue. The vegetable broth containing soy adds flavor notes characteristic of commercial canned tuna products.
Nutritionally, this product provides 125 calories per 100 grams, protein 19.6 grams, fat 5.4 grams, and zero carbohydrates per 100 grams. No fiber is recorded. The serving size is 56 grams. These values are identical to variant A, confirming the same underlying formulation.
Allergens: fish (tuna) and soy (soybean oil and soy-containing vegetable broth). No dairy, wheat, eggs, shellfish, peanuts, or tree nuts. Suitable for gluten-free diets per the listed ingredients. Not appropriate for individuals with fish or soy allergy.
