About KROGER, CHUNK YELLOWFIN TUNA IN WATER
Kroger Chunk Yellowfin Tuna in Water is a canned tuna product sold under the Kroger private label of The Kroger Co., available at Kroger, Harris Teeter, King Soopers, Ralph's, and other banner stores. This product uses light yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) as opposed to albacore (white tuna), packed in water for a lower-fat profile.
The ingredient list is minimal: light yellowfin tuna, water, vegetable broth (made from carrots, celery, peas, and soybeans), and salt. The vegetable broth is used for flavor enhancement and is a common addition to canned seafood products. Soybeans are present in the vegetable broth, constituting a soy allergen that may not be apparent to consumers reading quickly. The clean, short ingredient list distinguishes this as a less processed tuna product without added starches, stabilizers, or pyrophosphates that appear in some processed seafood.
At 125 calories per 100 grams with an exceptional 25 grams of protein, zero carbohydrates, and only 1.79 grams of fat, this is a highly protein-dense food. Yellowfin tuna is a lean source of high-quality protein with omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), selenium, niacin, and B12. Allergens include fish (tuna) and soy (in the vegetable broth). Not appropriate for pescatarian-only consumers avoiding shellfish, or those with fish or soy allergies. Suitable for gluten-free and dairy-free diets. Consumers limiting mercury intake should be aware that yellowfin tuna has lower mercury levels than albacore but higher than canned light skipjack tuna.
