No, I say "tuna salad" and then get disappointed when it's just chunked tuna with no vegetables or dressing.

I ask for Tuna and am disappointed when I get Tuna Salad, which is tuna, mayo (I assume) and onion. Like... did I ask for that extra shit? No!

The best tuna salads have celery not onion, and some have sweet pickles in them too.

I hate celery, but don't add onion either.

Mayo, mustard, & relish (preferably sweet, but dill works if that's what's on hand). Then boiled egg or tuna, depending on which kind of salad you want.

Two sides of the same coin. Just give us what we ask for or tell us you can't do it, people!

Tuna salad is objectively better though. Tuna (the fish) tastes good. It has lots of flavour but it is inherently dry, 100% solved by tuna salad.

Today I learned that there are people out that who do not share that position. Never met one before. Hello, dryfish eater.

ahhhhh Tuna in springwater, maybe. Tuna in oil, though... nice and moist!
