The shelf life of frozen tuna saku still in vacuum packed can last for months, however the frozen tuna saku which already thawed and displayed on the shelf can only last for 3 to 5 days. So, if you purchase fresh yellowfin tuna saku that frozen before, you better use that as soon as possible before the tuna is spoilage.

Such condition is often related with the yellowfin tuna saku that sourced from a tuna fish which caught near the surface of the ocean.
This kind of so called burnt tuna offer cheaper prices than other good qualities of tuna saku and even some stores like to offer them in discounted prices. But, burnt tuna cannot be prepared raw as sashimi, however when it is cooked, it still acceptable and edible to be consumed.
