[[File:Tuna detail.png|left|111px]]'''Tuna''' is a [[food]] item made by cooking [[raw tuna]]. Compared to many other fish, it is not the most potent healing item, but its low cost and high availability make it a useful training food, as it heals 100 [[Life Points]] a piece. Tuna is often used by players that train on the [[lesser demon]]s in [[Karamja volcano]]. This training spot is fairly close to the Karamja fishing pier, where players fishing for [[Raw Swordfish|swordfish]] may drop the less-valuable tuna that is caught along with them. This tends to draw in the players that train [[melee]].

Members can use it with [[sweetcorn]] to make [[tuna and corn]], which heals a bit more than regular tuna. The cost of tuna can be made to profit this way. It requires 30 [[cooking]] to cook, yielding 100 experience. [[Potato with butter]] can also be added with tuna-and-sweetcorn to create a [[tuna potato]], yielding another 10 experience and a 220-LP-healing food.

Tuna is also often used to train the [[Cooking/Training|cooking]] skill. Factoring in the time/cost ratio, it is probably the most efficient way to achieve 99 cooking in free-to-play. Players will rarely burn tuna beginning at level 60 and will stop burning tuna at level 65 cooking (66 on fire). If you're a member you can use [[cooking gauntlets]] which makes you stop burning tuna at level 63. Cooking tuna yields around 100,000 experience per hour, where the maximum number of fish that can usually be cooked in an hour is around 1,000. If one buys raw tuna on the grand exchange and cooks them, it will result in a {{#ifexpr: ( {{GEP|Tuna}} - {{GEP|Raw tuna}} ) < 0 | loss of {{#expr: {{GEP|Raw tuna}} - {{GEP|Tuna}} }} | gain of {{#expr: {{GEP|Tuna}} - {{GEP|Raw tuna}} }} }} coins.

==Trivia==
*When the [[Fishing]] skill was first released, tuna gave no fishing experience. This was fixed the next day.
*In terms of cost-effective healing, tuna is better than swordfish, healing only 40 less yet having a cost of less than 1/4 that of swordfish but are the same price as lobsters which heal 20 more.
*A burnt tuna is called ''[[Burnt fish]]'' along with all other fish except some such as [[Burnt swordfish]], [[Burnt shark|shark]] and [[Burnt shrimp|shrimp]].
*In Runescape, Tuna can be caught at the shore. In real life however, Tuna are only found out in the ocean.
*Tuna and [[Bass]] have the same [[examine]] text.
