Available in both water and oil, John West Protein Tuna contains 33 grams of protein per can.
But Is It Worth Buying?
Taste & Texture
The texture is quite thick, and it doesn’t break into small pieces.
Instead, you get medium to large chunks of tuna, which I really like.
The flavor is a bit more intense than regular tuna.
As someone who usually buys the regular John West in water, I really enjoy this one.
Nutritional Values
The John West Protein Tuna in Water contains 120 calories, 0g carbohydrates, 0.9g fat, and 28g protein per 100g.
For a 120g can of Protein Tuna in Water, that’s 144 calories, 0g carbohydrates, 1.1g fat, and 33.6g protein.
Worth buying it?
On average, canned tuna contains around 20 to 25 grams of protein per 100 grams. This can vary slightly depending on the brand and whether it’s packed in water or oil.
The price for the John West Protein tuna at the moment (March 2025) is € 3,25 per can.
In my opinion, it’s great that there’s a protein-packed tuna option available. However, if the price is prohibitive, a regular can of tuna still provides an excellent source of protein, with zero carbs and low fat.
Additionally, there are plenty of opportunities throughout the day to make up for any missed protein intake.
In conclusion, I’ll buy this tuna from time to time, especially if I find a good deal, but it won’t be my exclusive choice.
