OUR current favorite is Wild Oats store brand.* Of course,
that does you no good if you aren't near a Wild Oats. Oh yes,
also the Bumblebee Prime Filet Solid White Albacore, which has
a gold label and a gold can, is good--a bit more expensive and
drier than the aforementioned one.

*MY favorite is actually Ortiz's Bonito del Norte en Aceite de
Oliva, but my daughter doesn't like it. Since the other
varieties only come in 6-oz cans. I rarely get to eat this
one, even though one can get 4-oz cans of it. (and that's
lucky, because it's expensive!)
