No Stress Tuna Press — Episode 2: Stainless Steel

In Episode 1 back on January 21, 2006, we learned of the existence of this clever device purported to take the worry out of draining canned tuna.

Being close, that's Dial's bailiwick.

But I digress.

Now comes the new, improved tuna can colander.

You will note I did not say "tuna fish."

That's redundant, though common parlance.

Do you say "mackerel fish?" Or "yellowtail fish?"

Didn't think so.

Anyway, Steve Leckart's "Cool Tools" newsletter recently featured the stainless steel version — and if it's good enough for Cool Tools it's certainly good enough for bookofjoe.

Without further ado, then (gee, joe, I thought you'd never get to the point), Dennis Emge's review.

No More Soggy Tuna — Stainless Steel Can Colander

For years I wondered why no one had built or designed a way to drain out all of the liquid out of a can of tuna. Then, low and behold, I found one. This stainless steel can colander is relatively inexpensive and built with a high grade of stainless steel, so it is practically bulletproof and almost impossible to bend. This colander also works on any normal-sized can, but its real magic is its ability to completely drain the liquid out of a can to prevent wet and soggy tuna. Progressive also makes a plastic colander but I wouldn't recommend it. The stainless steel model isn't much more expensive and it will last you your lifetime.
