Recipes for seafood salad have changed over the years. Once upon a time, tuna cans were so tightly packed with tuna there was no room for water. Now, that's not the case. This has been known to lead to watery tuna or seafood salad, based on older recipes. This recipe must be adjusted each time it is made due to varying liquid amounts in the cans. Many variations on basic tuna salad exist, including mixing it with cooked noodles. This is not a safe salad to take on a picnic beyond the backyard. It will spoil quickly if unrefrigerated.
