Hamburger Helper, et. al.

[Country Cook]

The only time I ate it was when I worked out in the bush camping in trailers and tents. Fast easy and convenient but I haven't eaten it since and have never tried the tuna varietys (they scare me!)

The utter vile-ness of Tuna Helper is usually due to using water packed tuna. Buy tuna packed in oil; (which because of the types of tuna used is usually LOWER in fat than water packed) it tastes better and has a real tuna texture. That being said,your Tuna Helper will be only partially vile, and will be almost decent if some sauteed onion and a good bit of FRESH garlic are added to the sauce.

No way, I like water packed tuna better, I never cared for oil packed.

As for taste of canned tuna, you can't compare it to -real- tuna, you have to think of it as totally different product.
