Sardines

[JoeJustice]

Sardines am awesome and so can you! Eat them two or three times a week. Not good with beer, though.

Do you guys like sardines? What's say we start a discussion on this topic for with we can exchange the ideas that we have in possession of our brains?

I take sardines strictly for the perceived health of it & certainly not for taste; there's mucho ways to get rid of the yuck factor. Being a small fish,they're much less likely to be contaminated
As a bonus, they're CHEAP at dollar-type stores

[JoeJustice]

I do really like sardines and according to what I've read, they're very healthy fish; low in mercury with all of the good protein, calcium and Omega 3s. I'll admit I can't really take them plain, but the mustard and hot sauce variety are tasty, tasty, tasty. On a hard workout day, or a recovery day, I'll eat them an hour or so before bed.

I prefer the mustard or hot sauce versions that and Kippered herring MMMMMM !!!

Grilled sardines are great.
Even sardines bought in cans - eaten with lemon juice - are just a pure pleasure.

It is a pity I've come back from shopping session : i've forgotten to buy some. It will be for next time...

Note canned versions of healthy fish like mackerel,sardines, & salmon also come mucho sodium. Often tomato sauce is used with the canned stuff & it comes with high sodium. Tomato paste on the other hand is ultra low in sodium but works quite well as a "yuck killer"

Love 'em. I eat them almost every day. In my lunch salad during the week (packed in oil); in my breakfast omelette on the weekends (packed in hot sauce). :in-love:

Oh yeah, and I love 'em. Now I'm curious of the cost per ounce, protein grams, etc.

Haven't eaten them in a while. The last time was before there were any flavors. Heck, there was only one Pepsi flavor back then, too.

Wow! I pay more than that for a lousy 4 oz can! (The "on sale" price of the 4 oz --really 3.75 oz--cans that I use is 99 cents. Whenever they are "on sale", I stock up.)

I always have a tin of sardines in my lunch box! They are my default, "go-to" nutrition solutiion!

I always think:" If I had nothing to eat, these would be GREAT!"


And actually, they really are, given those parameters....

But, the ones with mustard are FAR superior to those without!

[tom]

There is a new store that I pass when going to town. It's called the 99¢ Plus Store.

That cracks me up. What were they thinking? It used to be a foreign food place, so the current owners may not be native English speakers. Still cracks me up.
