I usually eat canned pink salmon in water. It’s a bit more expensive but tastes better and has better macros. Canned tuna (at least where I’m from) is nearly pure protein (something like 0.5g fat per 14g protein): protein is great but you absolutely need some fat in your diet. Meanwhile canned pink salmon is 2g fat per 22g protein, which…is still a lot of protein, but it actually tastes like something. Canned red salmon has even more fat, but it’s more expensive and i eat a lot so i stick with pink.
I’ve also heard that salmon has more omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids than tuna. And it has a lot less mercury.
