I thought it was red because it's treated with carbon monoxide? http://www.nytimes.com/2004/10/06/dining/tunas-red-glare-it-could-be-carbon-monoxide.html http://www.nytimes.com/2004/10/06/dining/tunas-red-glare-it-...

- mabramo 9y agoSome tuna actually is red, though. For example, yellow fin tuna. Caught one last month and when I got home my brother and I made sashimi... Meaning that we cut it into slices and ate it. It was so, so good. I still like it after it's been frozen, but it's no longer good for sashimi.
