you and me both know when your hardcore like getting ready to compete you dont have time to make all these tuna suprises ive tried it all one time i mixed it with water in a blender and chugged a whole can that was the worst and this was after eating 8-10 cans a day for eight weeks. what ive found works well is dijon mustard and a couple saltines - each can and of course a nice cold glass of water
