    Prickly pear cactus are called tuna (maybe just in Spanish?) — I wouldn’t want to confuse tuna fish with tuna fruit…

    Also, I think tuna fish refers to certain preparation, e.g., as used in a tuna fish sandwich. This is in contrast to sushi (“tuna roll”) or a tuna steak, which typically don’t have the “fish” qualifier.
