Classic Tuna Salad

This Classic Tuna salad is creamy and full of flavor and textures. The flakey tuna is combined with mayo and eggs with a little relish and celery .

When I got older I realized so many people were funny about this salad, like no eggs or relish. What is tuna salad without eggs?? It would be pretty boring and sad.
