Dongwon Vegetable Tuna is a Korean-style mixed canned tuna made with Pacific tuna (43%) combined with a variety of vegetables including cabbage, potato, carrot, sweet corn, green peas, and red bell pepper. Unlike standard canned tuna, which typically contains only tuna and oil (or water), this product includes vegetables and a Worcestershire sauce and tomato paste-based sauce, delivering rich flavor without any additional cooking. It can be mixed with rice or spread on bread and eaten straight away, making it a convenient meal ingredient widely used in Korean households for lunchboxes and quick snacks.

Yes, this product contains allergens that must be declared under EU Regulation 1169/2011. The following have been identified: ① Fish (tuna), ② Gluten (wheat — present in the Bim100B ingredient and in wheat-derived components of the Worcestershire sauce), ③ Soybeans. Additionally, the Worcestershire sauce may contain sulphites at 10 mg/kg or above, so individuals sensitive to sulphites should exercise caution before consuming. If you have food allergies, please check the ingredient list on the product label directly.

No. This product is not suitable for either vegans or vegetarians. The main ingredient is tuna (fish), an animal-derived ingredient. Although the product has a high vegetable content and vegetables are referenced in the product name, this refers to a tuna product with added vegetables — it is not a plant-based product. There is also no halal certification, so it is not recommended for those following a halal diet.

Dongwon Vegetable Tuna has a mildly salty, slightly sweet, and umami-rich flavor. The Worcestershire sauce and tomato paste give it a depth of flavor similar to a European Worcestershire-based stew. It is mild and gentle rather than bold or spicy, making it easy to enjoy even for those new to Korean food. Compared to Italian canned tuna (tonno), it has a richer sauce and far more vegetables, making it closer to a complete side dish or topping in its own right.

Before opening, store at room temperature away from direct sunlight in a cool, dry place. As a canned product, it can be stored long-term without refrigeration. For the exact best-before date, check the date printed on the bottom or side of the can. After opening, transfer the contents to a glass or plastic airtight container, refrigerate, and consume within 1–2 days. Avoid storing the opened can directly in the refrigerator, as this may cause metal oxidation.
