Does have to refrigerated

The StarKist Tuna Salad Pouch does not have to be refrigerated. The unopened pouch is shelf-stable.

Is this skipjack tuna or albacore?

It is skipjack tuna or chunk light tuna. Skipjack tuna has less mercury than albacore, and so far the flavors I have tasted are good. I like the Deli style and he barbecue (tastes like pork barbecue.) I like the convenience of this product, and the price is low. Less than $1 per meal or snack is a great deal.

can this be shipped to St Thomas in the Virgin Islands? looking for meals to send family that has not power.

Hello: Whether the item ships to the US Virgin Islands (US VI) is merchant dependent. Some Amazon merchants will ship outside the continental USA, some won't. I do ship to the US VI (Amazon Merchant VSD). Merchants who use Amazon FBA (Fulfillment By Amazon) to ship orders may also ship to the US VI. I would recommend calling Amazon customer service concerning shipments to the US VI by merchants using Amazon FBA.
