This sandwich was a disaster! The pineapple was too sweet and the tuna was too fishy. I ended up throwing it away.

This sandwich was okay. I didn't love the combination of pineapple and tuna. I think I'll stick to my regular tuna salad recipe next time.

I'm not a huge fan of tuna salad, but this sandwich was surprisingly good! The pineapple adds a nice sweetness and the celery adds a nice crunch.

This sandwich is a great way to use up leftover tuna. It's also a great option for a quick and easy lunch.

This sandwich is perfect for a summer picnic! It's light and refreshing, and the pineapple adds a nice tropical flair.

I made this sandwich for lunch today and it was a hit! My husband and kids loved it. I will definitely be adding this to my regular lunch rotation.

This sandwich was easy to make and so tasty! I used canned tuna, but I think it would be even better with fresh tuna. The pineapple and celery add a nice crunch and the mayonnaise dressing is perfect.
