About Fish, tuna salad
Tuna salad as typically prepared combines canned tuna with mayonnaise and often relish or celery, which shifts the nutritional profile considerably compared to plain fish. The fat comes mostly from the mayo, and there is a meaningful carbohydrate contribution from the relish or other added ingredients. Protein is still solid but lower than plain tuna. Homemade versions allow easy control over the mayo ratio; commercially prepared versions tend to run heavier.
