  • Budget-Friendly Protein Source for Today's Ethnic Cooking
    Budget-Friendly Protein Source for Today’s Ethnic Cooking Looking for budget-friendly sources of protein? Some of the most surprising sources are hidden in the canned seafood section of the supermarket. Canned shrimp, oysters, and canned/refrigerated crab are rich in high-quality protein. These buried treasures from the ocean are also rich in hard-to-get nutrients like zinc, vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acids. And canned seafood is low in saturated fat. This chart highlights the good nutrition found in tasty and inexpensive canned seafood: Protein per Average serving Rich in important nutrients Calories price per (grams) serving 3 oz canned shrimp, drained* 15g Selenium 75 $3.69 Zinc Iodine Vitamin D – Helps maintain strong bones and ward off diseases including osteoporosis and diabetes Vitamin B3 3 oz canned oysters, drained* 12g Selenium 90 $3.39 Zinc – Many women don’t get enough unless they eat adequate amounts of red meat Vitamin B12 – People who don’t eat many animal products may be deficient; may help with mental well-being Phosphorous Iron 3 oz canned/ refrigerated 20g Selenium – An antioxidant that helps bolster the immune system 98 $3.59 crab, drained* Chromium - Enhances the action of insulin, and may help people who have diabetes manage better glucose control *Be sure to drain and rinse canned seafood to remove some of the sodium.

  • 4 Canned Tuna Processors
    4 CANNED TUNA PROCESSORS 4.1 General Overview This chapter presents an overview of the current status of the major global canned tuna processors and in doing so, highlights some the key issues shaping the future of the global canning industry, as well as potential implications for Pacific Island countries and their tuna industries. The contemporary global canned tuna processing industry developed in the mid 1950s, in conjunction with the development of industrial-scale tropical tuna fisheries.319 A large increase in the demand for canned tuna in the late 1970s-early 1980s fuelled significant growth of purse seine fishing fleets, as well as canned tuna production facilities required to process the rapidly expanding supply of raw canning materials. Originally, canned tuna production was dominated by the US mainland, EU and Japan, who collectively accounted for more than two thirds of total global production until the mid-1980s. With the development of tuna canning industries in the Philippines and Thailand in the early 1980s, and later, canning industries in other lower-cost sites of production in South East Asia, Central/Latin America and the Indian Ocean, the dominance of the former three major producers diminished. Today, global canned tuna production exceeds 1.7 million metric tonnes annually.320 Like the canned tuna fishing industry, the canned tuna processing industry is both complex and dynamic. Global processing operations are currently influenced by factors such as increasing cost of raw materials and other production inputs, tuna resource sustainability issues, overcapacity, complex tariff regimes, increasingly stricter standards (i.e. labour, quality, food safety and environment) and changing consumer preferences, to name a few.
