Has anyone else noticed in their local supermarket an apparent "shortage", of tuna in oil (all types) and an increase in tuna in brine or tuna in springwater on the tinned fish shelves ? is there any reason for this ? also the price has almost doubled.

I assumed much of this was due to depleted stocks of mature tuna. Probably cheaper to can in brine ALSO current helth concerns would suggest no oil.

At the moment Sainsbury's are selling a 185g tin of John West tuna in mayonnaise with sweetcorn for 97p and very tasty it is too!

The thought of tuna in oil is repulsive I find but I know that lidl sells it that way. I would only get the brine version but.

I've been to Asda today, and they are selling tuna in oil. But I'm with most other people here, I don't buy it myself, I buy tuna in brine.
