I still remember the theme song..."Tuna twist makes tuna taste, fresh as a garden". I remember my mom being so disappointed when it was discontinued. It basically was a seasoning mix (several flavors available) you added to your tuna.
This was the ONLY way I would touch tuna
The ONLY way we made tuna sandwiches. Where can we find it?? Why did they discontinue it??? It seems like every time I find something I like, they either "new & improve" it, or discontinue it altogether!! Halo Shampoo, Tuna Twist, Whip n Chill, Crystal creme candies, etc. Can't leave anything alone!!! Well, I'm all done. Thanks for letting me get it off my chest! At least I know I'm not alone! Thanks!
Likewise, I am glad to not be alone in my loving memory of Tuna Twist! It's frustrating while reminising about the past hardly anyone remembers it. I wish it would come back.
I remember another part of the theme song. "I'm Sir Celery. I'm Miss Parsley. We're the Onion Twins. Oh, Tuna Twist, Tuna Twist, fresh from the garden."
I loved it...dehydrated celery onion parsley in a packet with other flavors. Best tuna ever..I havent liked tuna as much since. Anyone remember Lemon Pudding Cake...it was a mix a dry cake on top with lemon pudding underneath..yum!
There are some great new tuna products on the market now. They put them in foil bags, and have flavors like teriyaki, lemon dill, etc. Very expensive though. I stock up on them when there is a 2-for-1 sale. And you don't have to mix any powder into the tuna.
My sister use to make this for us when we were little and we all loved it, then they recalled it or discontinued it. Remember the Food Stix I think they said it was the snack that the astronauts ate.
No one I know remembers this stuff and they think I am nuts. At last, proof the stuff existed! Is it true they took it off the market because it was causing blindness?
I loved Tuna Twist and have been looking for it for years. I tell my kids about Tuna Twist and they think I have lost my mind, because they have never seen or heard of it. What happened to it? Also what happened to Squeek shampoo and conditioner, it was the best. It had a great smell and made your hair look great.
I could not remember the name of the product -- just the onion twins. We used to use it as a joke. "Onion twins powers activate!" Of course, taking the Wonder twins line from the Super Friends then adding your own smell and oder as your power.
I have never used tuna twist. But my wife tells me about every time we make tuna. She says she loved it. Eat alot of it and she is not blind or sick.
