Yep.  It has for quite some time.  Not all cans, obviously.
Those little single-serving cans did, and the moderately
fancy Spanish tuna that I buy does.  Although I'm switching
to tuna in glass jars.  It's about half the price, and I'm
starting to think $10 for one meal's worth of Spanish tuna
is not worth it.

i've seen tuna in serving size mylar packages, they're typically
with sardines, smoked oysters and whatnot. the canned tuna i eat
most often is solid albacore and i get that in 6 and 8 packs at
BJ's. try as i might, i don't recall ever seeing tuna in pull
tab cans. :/

I used to buy these; 3 ounces is plenty of tuna for me, especially
as I used to only eat it as tuna-salad sandwiches with plenty of
celery, onion, and sliced green olives, which added considerable
bulk.

i see, easy open cans. little ones. i eat 5oz-ers mostly right out
of the can at work. keep a can opener in the silverware pocket in my
lunch bucket at all times. occasionally i'll put a can on salad for
protein but i prefer shrimp or chicken. and lately, beans.

the only other ways i eat tuna is in a casserole, occasionally a
tuna salad sandwich and it's just tuna and miracle whip with a
lot of fresh cracked peppercorn, and shit on a shingle. or
whatever warm creamed tuna with peas on toast is called. :)

Tuna casserole has only one legitimate function.  When a traditional
housewife feels that her husband has not taken her out to dinner in far
too long, she can make a tuna casserole.  The husband comes home and
asks, "What's for dinner, honey?"
The reply is, "Tuna casserole."
To which he responds, "You know, it's been a long time since I took you
out to a nice restaurant."
The tuna casserole gets fed to the dog because dogs will eat damned near
anything.
