For those of you who eat tuna spread sandwiches, you may know that portioning the amount of spread is… Variable… And sometimes messy. It depends on the bread type, thickness, toast level, etc., as well as the spread’s qualities, AND what you’re feeling like.

How The Heck Do YOU Make Your Tuna Sandwiches?
Tips? Tricks? Secrets? Ingredients? Spill the beans! Er, tuna.
I’ll go first. If you use a fork to kind of…wipe each slice of bread carefully with its own mechanically-stable layer of tuna and THEN put them together, I’ve found that it usually ends up being the perfect amount. It takes a little longer, but gives a boringly great result.
Yeah tuna salad. I couldn’t think of what it was called and I just call it a tuna sandwich because I don’t eat tuna salad any other way. At least not anymore. Tuna salad burgers are not the way to go, even if you can find a binder that works well enough when hot.
Relish is pretty good but gets old pretty quick. Mixing in minced celery is pretty controversial, but I like the flavor and the crunch. Minced onions are more neutral and work in a pinch.
Bbq sauce??
Also, I used to be a painter and we would always joke about putting food coloring in a bunch of milk and yogurt in a paint bucket and scoop and eat it with your hands in public.
Also Tabasco on tuna salad sandwiches is like a cheat code
