Protein on the Run Gourmet Tuna in Olive Oil & Crackers

The taste is great. Opening the can not so easy. Their protein "snacks on the run" great to put into kid's lunch boxes. But these cans have an old fashioned pull ring that I resorted to pliers to get enough force to open it, so not for kids. I like to toast Dave's killer bread, micro one slice with pepperjack for 10 secs then spread the Bumble Bee on it for a quick healthy protein snack.

If you are needing a quick, portable, healthy meal, this is a good option. I am diabetic and it is ok for me to eat.

Have tried both the "Mild Jalapeno" and "Zesty Lemon". Prefer the Mild Jalapeno (I think it's a better "adaptation" of what it's trying to be vs. the Zesty Lemon which perhaps due to the olive oil, the lemon is just kind of a vague background flavor that doesn't really bring all that much to the table). So right off the bat with the package in my hands I notice this is part of their "Prime" line. A new addition. Sure, let's see what that means. First, we open the tuna. Upon doing so I notice it's fairly standard in appearance and texture, nothing immediately or visually different from their cheaper products. Nearly a pate or "cat food consistency" notorious for being associated with can tuna. But we can look past that, after all it's going to end up the same consistency anyway, right? Next, I open the crackers. Now the crackers are pretty fancy. Nice subtle buttery flavor, large, and thick with a good crunch to them. Of course, people don't buy tuna for the crackers so let's get too hung on the quality of the secondary item. Now comes the most important part: the taste. It's fairly standard of tuna and crackers. The olive oil helps accent the taste of the tuna and with the crackers make it an overall pleasant experience and decent snack to have. $3 isn't too bad, though that can buy a good 3 pouches of tuna and with your own seasoning and crackers at home I don't see the different between the two being that drastic, other than obviously this product is much more convenient and "all-in-one." Overall, I'd buy it again but it's nothing overtly "higher end" or "much better" than what they had already, other than convenience of not having to have your own seasonings on hand. I mean it's Bumble Bee, I kind of expected a little better from their new "Prime" product line but it's fine. Hopefully they add new and more interesting flavors and change things up down the line. Those I would be glad to check out.

Love the taste

Amazing tuna and crackers, high protein and relatively low in calories. I appreciate that there are only three crackers in the box, good for those of us who are watching our carb intake. The tuna is seasoned perfectly and is marinated in heart healthy olive oil. Incredibly delicious and makes a handy meal or snack that you can take anywhere. Tuna is a very healthy source of protein and many other nutrients that support a healthy brain and heart. These tuna kits require no refrigeration and are great for work, travel, for a picnic, to take to school or college, or just keep at home for when hunger strikes. I’m a big fan of these Protein on the Run tuna and crackers kits, they are absolutely perfect!

These come in handy and I like that everything you need is in the kit. I spend a good bit of time in bed and this is a good snack for me to keep near my bed.They ran out of the lemon flavor so I got the hot one again and just picked the peppers out of the tuna

I have been a big fan of this product since it first introduced. However, my most recent order (last month) has been disappointing. The ratio of tuna to oil has changed, so there’s less tuna, and what is there is swimming in quite a lot of oil. There less jalapeño, too, so there’s less of that tasty zing. I’m not sure that’s why the tuna just does not taste as good or as fresh as before. I don’t miss the caramel, which was dropped several months back, but I do miss having a good amount of fresh-tasting tuna packed into the container. Hopefully this is a temporary situation that Bumble Bee will correct soon.

Love these for a quick and convenient lunch! Both the jalapeno and lemon are good--the lemon is slightly tastier (and oilier) to me but also slightly higher calorie. Sometimes the crackers come broken but not a big deal to me.
