The other day I decided to crack open this can of tuna, which has been in my cupboard for a couple of months. I love spicy food, so I figured I'd give California Delight Chipotle Tuna a try. I think the reason I held off on eating it for so long is the confusing packaging. California Delight is kosher and is made in Thailand. In case you're wondering it's imported by a Los Angeles company.
About the only resemblance it bears to Thai food is its incendiary heat and psychedelic red color. Even though it's called chipotle tuna, it contains none of the smoked peppers. The finely chopped light meat tuna is however hot as hell thanks to the two whole chiles and tons of seeds. At first I tried to eat it straight out of the can, which was not the best idea. But even when it was mixed with microwave rice it still emitted a steady heat and left me with a pleasant flush.
