I know you're not supposed to eat a shitload of canned fish, something about mercury?? But these things are soo cheap $1.50 for 3 cans and they taste OK too.

Does anyone else smash down a couple cans every other day?

I LOVE IT

Shitload of Sodium as well.

Yummy! Sardines are fine IMO, no more sodium than a can of tuna.

I love sardines....

Sardines are a nice change-up once in a blue for me. Pretty potent smelling, have a breath-mint after.

Excuse me, but I'd just like to say...

Are they eaten straight out of the can or do you have to fix em up? I remember my dad ate them straight out of the can, but he also liked liver and onions.

I know most people feel that way. I can honestly say that if I didn't have the background that I did with sardines, I probably wouldn't eat them either.

My Grampa would come home from work during lunch and he would feed my sisters and I at the same time. Let's just say my Grampa is not the greatest cook in the world. His idea of gourmet meal was mayonnaise and cucumber sandwiches or sardines. So that's pretty much what we ate when he fed us. They just grow on ya.

I take them out of the can mash them up and add lemon juice. I use to eat it on saltines when I was young, now I just eat it mashed with the lemon juice

Hmm, that doesn't sound half bad actually. I'm gonna add them to my list. Thanks.

exactly what I was thinking

 

[Smoo_lord]

Mash them up with an avocado, add a twist of lemon, cracked pepper and salt and then smear it onto toast...

Lol its funny how so many people are fussy. Complaining about cottage cheese, tuna, etc.

I guess Im lucky then that I can handle eating all these CHEAP wonderful foods. Different strokes for different folks eh!

 

[tphillip23]

never tried them bc of the smell.
but the smell of tuna kept me away for years, now i have no problem with tuna.
don't they come in flavors?
any suggestions?

My mum makes sardine pizza. I used to eat them on toast with tomato.

 

[vortrit]

I can only handle the ones in mustard sauce.
