Albacore Tuna in Olive Oil with Garlic & Herbs - 4.94 oz
Firm albacore chunks packed by hand in olive oil with real garlic, onion, and parsley — a jar that opens into an already-seasoned dish, not a project. Production runs entirely through Tonnino's own facility in Barranca, Puntarenas, Costa Rica, and every jar can be traced back to the vessel that caught the fish, so what's on the label is what's actually inside.
- Spoon it over greens, fold it through warm pasta, or spread it on toasted bread — the garlic-herb olive oil in the jar doubles as the dressing, so it needs little else.
- 100% wild-caught albacore, hand-packed in small batches at a single facility and traceable by lot back to the boat that caught it.
- Naturally gluten-free and packed under a dolphin-safe standard, with real herb pieces in the oil rather than a flavor extract.
Firm, wild-caught albacore chunks packed by hand in olive oil with real garlic, onion, and parsley — built to eat straight from the jar or fold into a dish in under a minute.
Each 4.94 oz jar holds whole pieces of albacore tuna, not flaked or shredded, packed in a herb-infused olive oil that doubles as a ready-made dressing — a canned tuna in olive oil built for effortless meals. Production runs entirely through Tonnino's own facility in Barranca, Puntarenas, Costa Rica — one site, one process, batch after batch — and every jar can be traced back to the vessel that caught the fish through Tonnino's trace program at tonnino.com/trace.
As with the rest of the Tonnino line, this albacore is tested for low mercury levels before it's packed.
Spoon it over a bed of arugula with lemon, stir it through warm pasta, or spread it on toasted bread with a few capers — the garlic-herb oil in the jar is already seasoned, so it needs little else.
Naturally gluten-free and packed under a dolphin-safe standard, this jar fits gluten-free and pescatarian diets alike, and with no grains, dairy, or added sugar in the ingredient list, it also works for keto and paleo eating. Store unopened in a cool, dry pantry; once opened, refrigerate in a sealed container and use within a few days.
Ingredients: Albacore Tuna, Olive Oil, Water, Herbs (Garlic, Onion, Parsley), and Salt.
Common Questions
How does this compare nutritionally to a standard can of water-packed tuna?
A typical 2-ounce serving of water-packed skipjack tuna runs about 60 calories, 13 grams of protein, and under 1 gram of fat. This albacore, packed in olive oil, comes in closer to 110-130 calories for the same portion, with roughly 13-15 grams of protein and 6-8 grams of fat, most of it from the olive oil rather than the fish itself. The trade-off is fat quality and texture: olive oil brings monounsaturated fat and helps the fish hold together as whole pieces instead of breaking into shreds. If you're counting strict calories, water-packed wins; if you want more staying power and a dish-ready oil, this is the better base.
What's the nutritional role of the olive oil in the jar, and is albacore itself a meaningful omega-3 source?
Albacore tuna naturally contains EPA and DHA, the two long-chain omega-3 fatty acids linked to reduced triglycerides and support for cardiovascular function; a typical serving of albacore provides several hundred milligrams of combined EPA and DHA. The olive oil packing adds oleic acid, a monounsaturated fat associated with improved cholesterol ratios, and because the fish is packed in oil rather than boiled in water, less of the fat-soluble omega-3 content leaches out during processing compared to water-packed methods. The herbs (garlic, onion, parsley) don't add meaningful nutrients in these quantities, but they do mean the oil itself is infused and usable as a finishing dressing rather than a byproduct to drain and discard.
Does this fit keto, paleo, or carnivore eating?
Yes, on macros alone: a 2-ounce serving has roughly 0 grams of carbohydrate, 13-15 grams of protein, and 6-8 grams of fat, which fits cleanly into keto or paleo macro targets without adjustment. For paleo, the ingredient list (tuna, olive oil, water, garlic, onion, parsley, salt) has nothing processed or grain-derived to flag. Strict carnivore protocols that exclude plant ingredients entirely would need to account for the garlic, onion, and parsley in the oil, since those are plant-based additions rather than animal-only ingredients, even in small amounts.
What dishes can this replace, and does it need any cooking adjustment?
Because the tuna is already fully cooked and packed as whole pieces rather than flaked, it works as a direct swap for cooked shredded chicken or diced cooked pork in a warm pasta, a Niçoise-style salad, or a sandwich filling, and the herb-infused oil in the jar can replace a separate vinaigrette on a bed of arugula. There's no additional cooking required and no adaptation needed for heat, since reheating isn't necessary; if you do want it warm, add it at the very end of a hot dish (like pasta) off the heat so the pieces stay intact rather than breaking apart like flaked tuna would. It also holds up on toasted bread with capers without needing binder or mayonnaise, since the oil already carries seasoning.
How can I verify where this tuna comes from and how it was caught?
Every jar carries a code that traces back to the specific vessel that caught the fish, checkable through Tonnino's trace program at tonnino.com/trace, so the sourcing claim isn't just printed on the label, it's checkable against a lot-specific record. The product carries a dolphin-safe designation, though Tonnino doesn't name a specific third-party certifying body on this jar, so treat it as a brand-level standard rather than an independently audited certification like MSC. It's labeled 100% wild-caught and tested for low mercury levels before packing, both of which are brand claims tied to their single production facility in Barranca, Puntarenas, Costa Rica, rather than claims verified by an outside certifier.
Why are these whole chunks instead of flaked tuna, and does that change how I should use them?
This product is hand-packed as whole albacore pieces, not flaked or shredded, which means the tuna holds its shape when you spoon it out rather than breaking into small bits the way pressed or machine-packed tuna does. That firmer format matters most in dishes where texture is the point, like a composed salad or an open-faced sandwich where you want to see and bite into distinct pieces of fish rather than a paste-like spread. If you're making something like a tuna melt or a dip where the tuna gets mashed or mixed heavily anyway, the whole-piece format matters less, since you'll be breaking it down yourself during prep.
Is this suitable for someone with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease?
Yes, the ingredient list is limited to albacore tuna, olive oil, water, garlic, onion, parsley, and salt, none of which contain gluten, and the product carries a gluten-free designation. There's no wheat-based filler, breading, or starch used to bind the chunks, which is common in some cheaper canned fish products but not present here. As always with packaged foods, checking the jar's current label for any formulation changes is a reasonable practice, but based on the stated ingredients this fits a gluten-free diet without modification.
