Go on. Ask her.

Ask any mermaid you happen to see, What's the best tuna? Chicken of the Sea!

Remember that jingle? It's been a long time since Chicken of the Sea used it, along with their lovely blond cartoon mascot. Check this out from 1980.

Back then she didn't talk. No, it was her job to look purty while sturdy housewives sang the praises of government-approved tuna.

Now she's back, and does she ever have a lot to say.

Even though she obviously has no soul, she can't handle all those stupid, "Why?" questions from the kid who doesn't understand how tuna and food commerce work. But that's okay, because she's also spouting her merwisdom on Twitter:

Sleeps with the fishes? Gangster soup? So, she cut a deal with the Mermaid Mafia to get her job back.
