Help find "dolphin deadly" tuna in the USA!

You can plan an important role in helping document dolphin-deadly tuna in your local market – and helping kick it out of the country



Dolphin-deadly tuna – with a fraudulent "safe" label – is coming up from Mexico and may now be in your supermarket. The good folks at Earth Island Institute are documenting how widespread this is so it can be SHUT DOWN.

This tuna is "Dolores" brand, and comes with a white label (if packed in water) or a red & gold label (if packed in oil). Although it reportedly has an "Amiga Del Delphin" label on it, this is false. (For that matter, "dolores" is spanish for "pains", which is a more apt description.)

Our good friends at Earth Island Institute are undertaking an important investigation of this "fishy" tuna. YOU CAN HELP. If you find any "Dolores" brand tuna on sale, write down the NAME and ADDRESS of the store and the DATE you saw it there.
