Lab test finds no trace of tuna DNA in Subway tuna sandwiches
The tuna sandwich was a trending topic in recent days after the New York Times published last 19 from June that lab test results found no trace of tuna DNA in Subway tuna sandwiches.
The lab commissioned by the NYT to test Subway’s tuna sandwich left open two possible conclusions. The first is that the Subway product is so heavily processed that no identification could even be made. The second possible conclusion is that in the mix of supposed tuna for sandwiches there is nothing that is tuna .
Although the NYT report did not completely deny the possibility that there could be tuna. Some media and consumers assumed that the product offered as such in Subway is not tuna.
Subway responded to the signs stating that DNA testing is an unreliable methodology to identify processed tuna , which was cooked before being tasted.
“All it says is that the test could not confirm the tuna ”, which according to the chain was to be expected in a DNA test of denatured proteins.
Subway claims that there is cooked tuna in their tuna sandwiches 100% wild, which is mixed with mayonnaise.
About a lawsuit you received in January in California in which consumers ac used that the mixture mimics the appearance of tuna but is not tuna, Subway reported that the plaintiffs dropped their claim after receiving information about Subway’s tuna and the reliability of DNA testing.
