Tuna Cones?

I’m on various recipe mailing lists, and I got this one from WhatsInTheFridge. I’m usually fairly open to new foods, but this one just didn’t sound particularly appetizing to me.

Tuna Cones
by Derek Knight

  • 1 can (6 1 /2-oz.) chunk light tuna
  • 1 /4 C. mayonnaise
  • 1 small dill pickle
  • 4 ice cream cones (flat bottomed)
  • 4 black olives

Open tuna and drain off liquid. Put tuna into bowl and add mayonnaise. Chop up the pickle and put in bowl too. Stir it all up. Fill the cones with scoops of your tuna mixture and top with the olives. Serves 4.

I like tuna, and I like ice cream cones, but I’m hesitant to combine them. It’s not the texture, but I think it’s the sweet nature of the cones mixed with the savory tuna — perhaps if the “cones” were made out of toasted pita bread, that might work better :-/.
