The concept could be as old as the New Testament, but apparently this specific phrasing is from the early 1900s, so it’d be about 60-70¢ now depending on which year you want to pick.

Look, Americans are genetically dumb as we all know, but I don’t think Tuna Fish is necessarily a consequence of that affliction in particular. It’s like saying “Sail Fish”, “Sail” is not a fish, it is the canvas you put on boat masts, and “Tuna Fish” is like that I think. It’s a type of fish, of the tuna kind. That said, before I go just let me take another opportunity to state that Americans are genetically dumb as we all know.
Hahaha eugenics? Have you considered not skipping school and stop drinking lead paint? First of all it’s a fucking joke, second of all, there was no mention of eugenics, thirdly, how do you think intelligence works? Magic?

“Tuna Fish” is still redundant and doesn’t actually address the can
Yes, language evolves haphazardly and often doesn’t make literal sense.
Alright, that’s my 2 cents. I’ll catch you on the flipside.

I want the destroy those people. Literally.
Flipside of what? Are we flipping coins, and you will see us underneath the coins?
Wait till you hear about “soda pop”
“I want a coke. No not that one - the Mountain Dew!”
I see you’ve also been to Georgia
I don’t disagree with you but I don’t control American English. I imagine both head cheese and sweetbreads would also upset you
