Mild, flavorful and not too salty
4 Stars
Mild, flavorful and not too salty
These are pleasant flavored sardines packed in a fairly flavorless olive oil- still better than the cheap oils used in a lot of canned fish. They're sin on, and bone in, with enough scales left on that you'll certainly want to scrape them off before eating. The bones are soft enough that you don't have to remove them, but they're large enough that they pop right out. I bought mine at Whole Foods, where they were $2.99, which is significantly cheaper than this deal. If you're interested in trying them I'd check your local stores first.Personally, I prefer the Crown Prince Two Layer Brisling Sardines in Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 3.75-Ounce Cans (Pack of 12). Smaller (and tastier) sardines, packed in extra virgin olive oil, and significantly cheaper, too.
