I have just realised whilst eating my lunch that my tuna out of a can may not be cooked. Which is grossamundo.

Canned tuna is cooked in a different way. They make sure that the sea flavor (which is definitely gross) wears off. But in some reasons, the nutrients in the tuna stay. So don't worry, raw tuna is not that color and sure it smells gross. Eat raw tuna and you'll be in the bathroom straight away.
Canned tuna also need not be cooked because it is already cooked.

It is cooked in the tin under pressure. If you want the benefit of tuna e.g 'good for you oils' etc. eat tuna freshlyly cooked. Try it grilled with herbs. Delicious

All canned food must be cooked to kill off any bacteria. That's why they don't rot in the tin (before eat-by-date).
Japanese and many people do eat tuna raw - sliced very thinly. But don't eat it too often as many large oily fish have high levels of heavy metals.

Yes, it is always cooked if canned. To get tuna steaks you see the fish monger in you grocery store.

first, you need to cook it, before you can can it. they are actually canned while the fish is freshly cooked. if you can them when the fish to either raw or cooked fish that has been cooled down, then the can might bloat because of bacterial contamination.
what is gross? hmmm... here in asia, we love to eat cooked duck eggs with half grown embryos, fried crickets (restaurants are usually out of stock for this, because of the demand), chicken feet (cantonese style), turtle soup, fried snake... don't judge something you haven't tried, go and try a balut (the duck egg).

It's cooked. Raw tuna is bright red. Don't knock it 'til you've tried it though.
