Tuna Mayo is a popular dish combining tuna with mayonnaise, often used as a filling for sandwiches, rice balls like Japanese onigiri, or salads. Originating from Western cuisine, this versatile mixture has been embraced globally, particularly in Asia and Europe, for its creamy texture and savory flavor. Made primarily of canned tuna and mayonnaise, it can be enhanced with ingredients like black pepper, sweet corn, or green onions. Nutritionally, tuna provides a rich source of lean protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins like B12 and D. However, the mayonnaise adds significant fat and calories, mostly from oil, which can make it less ideal for calorie-conscious diets. For a healthier twist, low-fat or yogurt-based alternatives to mayonnaise can be used. Easy to prepare and highly adaptable, Tuna Mayo balances convenience with nutrition, though moderation is key due to its fat content.
