Is albacore a whitefish

Albacore, often referred to as "white tuna," is not classified as a whitefish in the traditional sense. It is a species of tuna, specifically Thunnus alalunga, and is known for its lighter-colored flesh compared to other tuna species. Whitefish typically refers to a group of different species, such as cod, haddock, or pollock, that have a mild flavor and flaky texture. Thus, while albacore has white meat, it is not considered a whitefish.
