StarKist Frequently Asked Questions Where are SunKist's products packed? The majority of their tuna is produced in either American Samoa (which is a territory of the United States) or Ecuador. While a small amount of their tuna is also produced in Thailand, all facilities must follow the same stringent United States government regulations as plants located inside the country. The FDA and other United States regulatory agencies regulate their operations. In compliance with Federal regulations, if any of their products was produced outside of the United States or one of its territories, the label will list the country of origin. If a product does not specifically state the country of origin, then you can assume it has been produced in the United States or a U.S. territory. Where is your tuna caught / is SunKist's tuna farm-raised? All of StarKist's tuna is wild-caught. The majority of the tuna StarKist obtains is from the Pacific Ocean and the Western Atlantic fisheries. SunKist do not use farm-raised tuna. Why is white albacore tuna not always white? Since tuna is a natural product, you will notice some natural variation in the color of the fish. Albacore is the only species that can be labeled as "White Tuna"; however, the actual color of albacore tuna ranges from whitish pink to creamy beige. Factors such as the region where the fish was caught, or the age and diet of the fish can affect the color. What species of tuna do you use? Tuna labeled as "Light Meat" may contain one or more varieties of light meat species, usually Skipjack or Yellowfin tuna. Tuna labeled as "White Meat" contains Albacore tuna. Is there Mercury in Canned Tuna? Canned tuna is safe and canned light meat tuna is listed on the EPA/FDA advisory as one of the fish that has very low levels of methylmercury. The trace levels of methylmercury found in canned tuna are far below the 1.0 parts per million (ppm) standard the FDA has set as safe. FDA testing has shown that canned light meat tuna has an average of 0.1 parts per million (ppm) and that Albacore (white meat) tuna has an average of 0.35 ppm. StarKist has appropriate testing procedures in place to ensure that both their light meat canned and white meat canned tuna are well below the FDA limit of 1 ppm. Does StarKist add MSG? "The majority of StarKist products do not contain Monosodium Glutamate (MSG). Only the Ranch flavor Tuna Creations contains MSG." What is pyrophosphate? Pyrophosphate is a common food grade additive used in a variety of products from chicken nuggets to toothpaste. It's often added to canned tuna to help prevent the natural formation of mineral crystals. Pyrophosphate is only found in their albacore products since these crystals form most often in albacore tuna. Does StarKist Tuna contain any gluten or grain ingredients? Most StarKist Tuna products are gluten-free; however, there are several exceptions: Tuna Creations Herb & Garlic contains wheat and barley. Additionally, the crackers in the StarKist Lunch to-Go and Tuna Salad Lunch to-Go would contain gluten.
