Of all of the flavours available with the New Natural Sports Supplements Performance meals, I must admit that it was the Italian Style Tuna variety which peaked my interest the least. Having never been a big fan of fish I saw myself much preferring the beef and chicken variations.
This week we received our sample batches in the office. With a hungry stomach and eye for good taste (I such a thing is possible) we heated our meals (though they can be eaten cold it would only seem fair to review them as they were designed to be tasted) and set out upon choosing our favourites. To my surprise it was the Tuna variety which I found myself enjoying over any of the others.

I suppose the largest surprise from the Performance Meal was the quality and quantity of the meat within the package. I knew that the meals are designed to offer the perfect balanced meal and held 40% protein (39.9g per meal), but I never assumed that I would be getting big chunks of tuna! Most microwave meals are usually a load of carbs covered in tuna flakes, so to say I was happily surprised was an under statement. Tuna Chunks = Delicious!
I was also surprised by the flavour of the Tomato based sauce, which is mixed with oregano, onion, garlic and black olives to give a true Italian flavour. Being the lazy sort when it comes to nutrition I have taken to eating Performance meals direct from the packet (it saves on washing up so I can pretend I'm saving the world), and was enjoying the Italian style tuna meal so much I found myself drinking the remainder of the sauce at the end... Which is a good thing, as the healthy fats and carbs contained within a perfect for complementing your training.
All in all, the Italian style Tuna Performance meal gets two big thumbs up.
