    Tinned Fish in a beautiful tin.

    I was surprised when a friend suggested I try Fishwife products that I really would enjoy tuna in oil. I have not eaten tuna packed in oil since I was a child and was suspect because we all know not the best quality tuna if it is packed in oil. But oh was I surprised. Not only was the tuna tasty but I liked the spicy oil and it was another ingredient that gave my tuna sandwich depth. Can't wait to try the others in my bundle packed in the beautiful tin.

    Good Variety for the Undecided

    I found this starter pack to be a good mix of tinned fish to try. I liked all but one, but that was just a palette mismatch, the fish seemed excellent quality. I recommend trying this starter if you don't yet know what sort of tinned fish you like!
