Starkist Co. teamed up with hot sauce brand Tapatío for the creation of a new flavored single-serve tuna pouch called 'Starkist Tuna Creations Tapatío.'
This fiery snack is packed into a no-drain pouch, which means that it makes an ideal on-the-go snack when tuna is desired. At 14 grams of protein and just 70 calories, the tuna product offers a great standalone snack, as well as a way to enhance wraps and salads. Although it is spicy, the Starkist Tuna Creations Tapatío flavor is cooled with the addition of zesty, refreshing lime as an ingredient.
Other varieties that are available in Starkist's BOLD line include Hot Buffalo Style, Thai Chili Style as well as Sriracha and Jalapeño.
