anyone having trouble finding tuna in the pouch, any flavor other than albacore, that is the 2.5 serving size? lately all I can find is the single serve pouch. I've tried Wal-Mart, super 1,Cub Foods (all in Duluth).

Not sure what the serving size was but the Target in Saint Paul had tons of different favors of tuna pouches last week. Let me know if you want me to check for you. Maybe someone could run some up to you that is headed your way.

They have plenty of both pouch Tuna and Chicken at my local (Minnetonka) Cub. I usually stock up gradually over the winter so I have plenty for trip season.

At Philmont, where all "meals" are packaged for twos, they frequently had the 3 ounce foil pack of tuna as well as chicken, so both are made - just hard to find. All I see in stores around me are 7 ounce packages.

for several years we've used the lemon pepper flavor tuna in the pouch (the size that serves 2.5), and have use the herb garlic or the other flavors. usually we get them at Wal-Mart, Cub or super One in Duluth or two harbors.
all of a sudden no more of this size or flavor, just the albacore tuna. or there is the single serving size of lemon pepper and the other flavors, and the single serving size is really expensive!
so, for now we're using the plain and including a packet of lemon pepper seasoning.
also can't find the chicken in the pouch at any of the above mentioned stores.
i'm gonna keep researching this, though, cuz it really bugs me. :)

I have never seen the 2.5 size. I just bought 5 of the smaller sizes today at Cub for my upcoming trip.

You're right..I only shop for one but I checked em out at Super one in Superior... all single servings. I did discover Star Kist sandwich-ready tuna salad packs, though. Just toss on a bun and you're good to go. Tasty too!

I think if you buy the box with 4 packages you get a smaller size per
