About GINGER SESAME LIGHTLY SEASONED PREMIUM TUNA, GINGER SESAME
StarKist's Ginger Sesame tuna pouch takes light tuna and layers in red and green bell peppers, ginger, a touch of sugar, sesame seeds, soy sauce, and a mix of aromatics including leek, chives, and garlic. The result is a genuinely seasoned product that eats more like a prepared tuna salad than plain canned fish. Protein is high and fat is low, with most of the carbohydrates coming from the sauce and vegetable components. Sodium is present but not extreme. It's one of the more interesting flavored tuna pouches on the market, and it works straight from the packet over greens or tucked into a wrap.
