1.69 each. Merry Christmas.
My local Grocery Outlet had these for .99 so I bought a couple tins to try. I was very underwhelmed at first, almost no smoky flavor at all. I just figured I wouldn't buy them again, not even for .99. But then I added a splash of Franks Original. Wow, totally different experience. I'll be stocking up tomorrow.
Always wanted to open one like on tom and Jerry
Okay, so I was craving deens because I just found out my sister's husband (yes I know the term is brother in-law but I rarely use it isn't why) has found a love for tinned fish after a trip to Portugal, so I immediately ordered him a set of my favorite tins for Christmas and absolutely had to have some for lunch. Normally, I just stick em on triscuits with Tabasco and hummus if I'm feeling fancy. But I was inspired and out of Tabasco. Sourdough on the cast iron in duck fat, spicy pickled jalapeños, garlicky hummus, and this time I used La Bonne Mer sardines nicoise. It's fucking awesome. Also, sorry for the life story up above..I should have a "jump to recipe" button on this post
Just ate my first tin of sardines. Started watching canned fish files about 2 weeks ago and knew I needed to try some. Always liked canned tuna but never ventured further. Bought 6 tins at the store a week ago, but couldn't work up to trying one. Just stopped during work and got a tin of Brunswick boneless and skinless fillets. Housed the whole thing in my truck in the parking lot. tasted just like tuna. I didn't drink the oil but I was really close lol. I would highly recommend that anyone who is on the fence, just do it. They are so delicious and truly a delicacy. I will eat sardines for the rest of my life. Thanks Matt!
I’ve never snacked on canned seafood before coming across this sub, and I want to thank you for opening this world to me.
I got to say the love and support this community shows is like nothing I've ever experienced.. Tinheads are rare breeds. Obviously being in certain parts of the United States you only have access to certain brands, but everyone has the ability to reach out to companies direct... I never miss that opportunity and I've never been disappointed..Cole's graciously sent me out a small little sample pack of products that I've never seen here in New York...
Any suggestions for alternatives or who they source from? Love Fishwife products but also realize that it is mostly pretty packaging. Resisting their 20 percent off sale right now. And ideally in olive oil not seed oils.
Maybe it's just the shipment my local store got but I'm 2 for 2 with their cans being dented. The first time I didn't eat it out of paranoia, but the second time it had a slight but noticeable bulge. It seems like they're generally a decent product based on reviews, and the packaging is lovely, so this is really disappointing. IDK if I'm gonna bother giving them another shot just given the prices of tinned fish around here. Anyone else have a similar experience with them or am I just having some bad luck?
-add frozen peas and frozen green beans to a hot pan (1/2 cup each ish?) -add can of sardines with oil, break it up and mix it all around -once heated through, add some mixed garlic and crushed ginger (teaspoon each) -add day-old rice (about a cup?) -add soy sauce (couple tablespoons-ish) -mix mix mix -once all that is heated through, make a hole in the middle and add two eggs -mix mix mix -once eggs are cooked through, remove from heat and serve!
about a week or two ago, I got some canned mackerel to try for the first time, not knowing what it would taste like. I liked it, but it had a distinct aftertaste, halfway between green and purple jolly ranchers.
Looking it up, it says people do think it's a sweet fish, but the specificity of what it reminded me of is still a bit wild to me. Has anyone else experienced something similar?
I hope this is okay. Ihad a craving for sardines this morning. So, I decided to warm them and just throw them on top of a simple salad with a caper Dijon vinaigrette I made. Tastes great, and scratched the itch.
Are there any companies in california that produce tinned or jarred anchvies caught in california?
Hi everyone! This is my first canned sardines. Not sure how it tastes but I believe it would be amazing🤤
Moved to Ireland and I am craving tinned fish so bad. Does anyone know a good online store that ships to Republic of Ireland. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
ate m&s tuna steak in olive oil for the first time.....this has to be the most god awful tuna ever, the texture of the fish that sticks to ur tongue and the tastelessness my god. its literally worse than cheap canned tuna in my asian country. and i have no idea whats wrong with the oil, iv never tasted such tasteless and watery oil in my life.
how what why can get fish be so bitter,gunky and absolutely lacking in flavour?
have u ever eaten a product that has destroyed all ur trust completely in that brand's related products.....
i am a gambler and i tell u i am a very very trusting man, for some reason i always trust the casino would be kind to me this time.
got another can of M&S danish mackerel hope its not as bad.....
im stockpiling sirena, thats the most delicious iv had so far....and casino mackerel is decent, a bunch of japanese ones from don quixote......
but nothing compares to how horrible M&S tuna is......and i love fish, but that was one of the hardest thing to swallow.
