Agree with you on that one. The top can get crispy once it sits in the
fridge. And if you top it with chips or crackers, they go soggy. Got to
where when I did make it, I didn't top it and I put the chips on the side
for those who wanted some on theirs. Daughter doesn't mind the leftovers
though.

I discovered that I too have about that many cans. I kept finding good
sales and of course it was Bumble Bee which was recalled. But mine was
fine. I should give a few more to the food bank. Daughter was loving tuna
salad for a while but hasn't asked for any in a while. Or maybe I'll just
get some celery and make a big dish of it. She just might eat it.

I will buy some stuff when it is cheap with a coupon. But I draw the line
when it comes to stuff like that. I do know some people who will get that
stuff when cheap and just use the pasta out of it for something else. But I
can't bring myself to eat the stuff much less donate it to the food bank. I
had to eat far too much of it as a child.
