StarKist pouches are the perfect solution for busy people. Gone are the days of needing a can opener to enjoy some tuna or salmon. No more drippy, watery, fishy spills to contend with. StarKist pouches are the no mess solution to on-the-go eating. When I was little I ate tuna for lunch almost everyday. Sometimes my Mom would send a small can of tuna in my lunchbox with a can opener and some crackers. This was one of my favorite lunches but I wished it was not so messy. I could only have dreamed of these neat pouches when I was younger.
Starkist has 21 flavorful pouches available right now. Interesting flavors you can choose from include: ranch, hot buffalo, thai chili, lemon dill, mango chipotle, lemon pepper, herb and garlic and jalapeno. You can even find plain albacore white tuna or chunk light tuna in these convenient pouches. Watching your sodium intake? The two plain flavors both are available in low sodium versions as well.
The beauty of these pouches is that you can just Tear, Eat and Go. No need to prepare your lunch while you are on the go this summer. Tuna and salmon are both excellent choices because they contain healthy unsaturated fats, omega 3s, are low in calories, and are packed with protein. Each pouch is one serving, so grab a fork and some crackers, and dig right in.
Last week I met with a few members of the StarKist team at Blogher17. It was so much fun learning about these new products. I was even able to speak to one of the developers of the pouches who knew exactly what ingredients are in each product. As someone who has food allergies this was so nice to hear. When there is an ingredient like vegetable broth I never know what ingredients are used in the broth. It was wonderful to learn exactly which vegetables were included and know what the exact ingredients were.
If you are eating one of these StarKist pouches at home I have a few fun combos you can try. Each of these simple recipes on takes only a few extra minutes:
- Tuna Creations Ranch + 1/2 an avocado on a rice cake.
- Salmon Creations Lemon Dill + capers on pita chips.
- Chunk light tuna + cucumber + cherry tomatoes on flatbreads.
- Tuna Creations Sweet and Spicy + peanuts + red pepper on a lettuce boat.
These simple, delicious, and nutritious pouches are the perfect solution for a busy lifestyle. Don’t get stuck at the pool with some greasy pizza. Keep some StarKist pouches in your pool bag and enjoy a healthy snack. The beauty of the pouch means no can opener needed and no draining out the water and making a mess either. Just tear off the top of the pouch and eat it on the go. My daughter has already claimed some of these pouches for her on the go lunches. Make sure you are following StarKist Charlie on Twitter and Instagram to keep up with all the latest flavors and innovations.
I love to read your comments, which StarKist pouch flavor is your favorite?
Boy have they come a long way. This is really convenient for lunch and snack. My kids pack lunch daily for camp. This gives them a new option and they have a variety of flavors.
I totally agree with you! StarKist has really created a brilliant concept with these ready to eat pouches. They are perfect for a summer camp lunch box.
StarKist pouches are a great snack. I am always looking for ways to get more protein into my diet. I need to pick up some Salmon Creations Lemon Dill to try.
The lemon dill is a great choice! I love dill with salmon, it goes perfectly together.
These are so good and so so convenient. I have some in my pantry right now.
I am so glad you are already a fan of the StarKist pouches!
I’ve tried these before and really like them. I like that they have different flavored ones.
The flavors are awesome. Most people do not like plain tuna anymore.
Those are convenient! We are always eating on the go and it drives me crazy that we never seem to have anything on hand. I’ll have to grab some of these so we have something stocked up.
It is a great idea to keep some of these in the pantry for when you need an on the go snack that is packed with protein.
I love that they come in pouches. They are easier to open and easier to bring anywhere.
The pouches are super convenient. The days of can openers are over!
These look like a tasty healthy snack! I’ll have to try them next time !
This is a very tasty healthy snack! I hope you give them a try.
Starkist has clearly grown up. The flavors of these packages look amazing. Hoping they taste just as great.
The flavors are really great and not too strong, just perfectly seasoned!
I love Starkist snack pouches. Tuna has always seemed to give me a burst of energy. I haven’t tried the Salmon yet but I sure will.
Tuna probably gives you a burst of energy because it is packed with protein and protein gives you that boost your body needs! I hope you try the salmon pouches, they are great!
I haven’t had tuna fish in a very long time. My husband doesn’t like the smell so I don’t eat it unless he isn’t here. I will have to try the hot wings flavor.
These StarKist pouches will be perfect for you then! You can take a snack with you and your husband does not have to smell it.
The Hot Buffalo flavor sounds amazing. These would be perfect to put in my hubby’s lunch for work.
Yes! These would be great in your hubby’s lunch. It is a fun change of pace. The hot buffalo is delicious.
These look really interesting. I have never tried them before but I think they would be amazing. I Love to do a little snack of Tuna on crackers and the kids really quite enjoy it too.
My kids all love tuna or crackers too. If we want to do something special we do tuna on potato chips!
I remember Starkist from back when I was a kid. I was really happy to see that Starkist was at BlogHer ’17. Excited to try the new flavors.
StarKist is such a classic brand! I hope you have a chance to try a few of the new flavors.
Wow. this absolutely looks good and super convenient for me for my breakfast and snack too. I would love to give it a try
Wonderful! I am so glad you like it, and I hope you will try it soon.
I love Starkist pouches!! They are the perfect On-The-Go snack for me especially when I’m running around with the Kiddies and almost always forget to feed myself!
You can’t forget to take care of yourself. You definitely need these high protein on the go snacks.
