One thing I've noticed about deli-style tuna salad is that it drips this milky substance. It can't solely be the mayo because mayo is thick and this drippy stuff is very liquidy. Is it water in the tuna salad that is dissolving some of the mayo?
At home we buy Costco's Kirkland White Albacore Tuna and it is always high quality ... I think the lower quality tuna has more "fishy" taste but I can't bring myself to buy it.
OH, missbb, you are so right -- Costco's Kirkland brand rules! I don't eat ANY fish or seafood other than THIS tuna. Recently, we couldn't get to Costco & DH bought Bumble Bee "solid white albacore" -- YUK. Cat food for sure. Amazing.
As for the "recipe" requested by the OP a 100 years ago, I agree with the KISS method: mayo, salt, pepper .... maybe onion powder. Umm, umm good -- especially with tomato. Enjoy.
Everything's expensive these days... or am I just getting old?? I was shocked that the plain old white bread I bought was marked $3.99!! The store sold it for less, but even so!
Only thing I used to make either tuna or chicken salad is mayo and mustard, and toasted bread.
I'm getting older and prices are going nuts. This price change and product change happened not over night but in a very short time. Surprised not to have heard more complaints a few years ago.

I press the lid down in the can and squeeze the heck out of it. Got to be dry. No mustard for me either.

Well they put mustard on sardines who knows. Potato salad calls for both mustard and mayo. Just mayo for my tuna. I prefer light. Albacore has far less taste.
