Tunamayo is a popular mix of canned tuna and mayonnaise, often enhanced with ingredients like diced onions, celery, or spices for added flavor. Originating from Western cuisine, this creamy, versatile blend is commonly used in sandwiches, salads, sushi rolls, and wraps. It combines lean protein from tuna—rich in omega-3 fatty acids, essential for heart and brain health—with mayonnaise, which is typically high in fat and calories, depending on the brand. While tuna provides valuable nutrients like vitamin D, selenium, and potassium, the mayonnaise's fat content can be a concern for those monitoring their calorie intake or cholesterol levels. Opting for low-fat mayonnaise or Greek yogurt as a substitute can make the dish lighter. Tunamayo is loved for its simplicity and adaptability, but should be consumed mindfully within a balanced diet, especially if additional salt or flavored mayonnaise is used.
