Do vegetarians eat tuna?

User Avatar

Asked by Artvegan

No. * Most vegetarians do not eat "meat," which, by definition, is the flesh of another creature (i.e., meat does not refer solely to cows). Thus, virtually any seafood (e.g., fish, mollusks, etc.) that could reasonably be considered as having flesh would not be eaten by "true" vegetarians.

However, as with anything else, individuals have the right to choose to eat whatever they wish, and, as such, there are some flesh-eaters who consider themselves "vegetarians," though others might not. Refer to the link, below, for more information.

* Vegetarians don't eat any fish.

Is eating more tuna and chicken meat good for your diet?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, Tuna or chicken is a part of a good diet. Just remove as much skin of the chicken. The best way to do with them is grilling. In such a way, you do not fat in them but the grilling takes away most of the fat. They are best used for whole wheat bread as sandwiches. Eat lots of greens so you get mush needed nutrients.

How much energy is in a tuna sandwich?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It really just depends upon how one makes the sandwich. For example; one cup of tuna salad has 383 calories -- of course it depends upon what they have put in the salad -- mayonnaise, boiled eggs, onions, etc. . Two slices of bread has about 200 calories or 100 calories per slice. This totals about 583 calories for the average tuna salad.

But it depends on how you make the Tuna. Canned Tuna in water has about 40 cal. per serving. A whole can is 2.5 servings. So a Whole can is 100 calories. If you use Low fat mayo it 40 calories for 1 tbsp which is really all you need to mix one whole can of tuna. Which makes it 140 calories. The Bread is where alot of the calories come from. But if you use low fat bread it wont be so bad. Or you can do what I do and Wrap the tuna in a leaf of Romaine Lettuce which is almost no calories! Its so Good!

How do you smoke tuna in the can?

"The way the tuna is processed also differs. The larger commercial canneries, such as Starkist ™, cook their fish twice. First, they bake the fish whole on a rack, which results in a loss of natural beneficial oils. Then the fish is de-boned and put into the can, along with flavorings like vegetable broth, and additives such as pyrophosphate or hydrolyzed casein. The cans are sealed, and the fish is cooked again. This process allows the companies to de-bone the fish fillets faster and produce a higher volume of product. Specialty products are typically packed into the can raw and cooked only once, so all their natural juices and fats remain in the finished product. Tested specialty brands have been found to contain up to 2.97 grams of omega-3 fats in a 100 gram (3.5 ounce) serving."

How many calaories in a scoop of tuna?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Lots of variables here. Canned tuna in water (6.5 oz) has about 200 calories, in oil the calories go up to about 350 calories. If mixed with mayonnaise, could add 50 calories per TBSP unless it's made with the light variety. Seemed like a good protein source until several years ago, when the FDA issued health alerts warning pregnant women not to eat tuna more than once a month. This was bitterly contested by the tuna manufacturers, but was not refuted. The concern was about unhealthy mercury levels found in tuna, even more so in the white albacore variety. It has been reported that the largest amounts of mercury ingested by the population comes from mercury in fish sources (esp large fish like tuna, swordfish) as well as air pollution from the 600 coal-fired power plants in the U.S. If you're eating the fish for fish oil, use the caps instead. If eating tuna for protein, try including more chicken (avoid red meat) or soy-based products.
