"With my gluten-free lifestyle, it is hard to find smart and convenient snacks that keep me full and satisfied while I am training and on tour," said Michelle Wie. "That's why I love StarKist Tuna and Salmon Creations - they fit into my busy lifestyle on the road or on the golf course. These single-serve pouches fuel me up with lean protein and Omega-3s and are delicious staples I always have with me, whether at the gym, travelling to tournaments or for a snack in my down time. Just open the pouch and enjoy… no draining required."
