It’ll slide much easier into the biohazard waste bag for incineration

Actually, I’d probably eat it, but the *smell*

On edit: have you ever gotten very large sardines with fully-developed roe sacs? Put those in an omelette and you’ll be eating eggs from two species. Personally, I’ll take a pass .

Nope.

Mmm...mild taste, high protein! 👍🏾👍🏾

... leaves to visit her mom. She can't tell me what to eat or not, dammit if'n she's not here.

... They offered the open face sardine sandwich at the Men's Grill and the 19th Hole at the Portage Country Club. At $8.00 a pop in the mid 70s, it was almost two hours wages for me. Did not get very many, but man were they good. Fifty years later and I still can taste them. Brushing my teeth and mouth wash hasn't worked. I'm going to make one soon, we'll see if I've still got a wife after I bliss out.

She puked over my sardine onion sandwich with coffee I never ate sardine’s around her again I understand you.

The lady knew food!

... a good further vitamin D burst to the good D source of eggs. I can testify: Dunc really hit a home run with the sardine omlett.

are a lunchtime standard chez nous! So is pasta con sarde - sardines cooked in a red sauce.

... I have to hide the fact I use anchovies in my cooking, sardines in pasta sauce is a probably a bridge too far.

A violation of several culinary if not gastronomic laws!

Otherwise NO NO NO🤣

all the canned sardines I've had had the guts removed. Backbones still in for that extra calcium crunch, though.

I can occasionally find fresh sardines in stores around here. They should be cooked outdoors - otherwise, you'll be smelling them for weeks. And I like sardines!

... You gotta be on the east coast near a Portuguese community. Massachusetts?

Monterey, which is about 90 minutes away on the coast, used to have a gigantic sardine fishing industry until the schools were exhausted in the 1940s (a lot of them were used as fertilizer). The fish are making a modest comeback, but they're still hard to find fresh.

Ewwwww! 🤣
