Best Fish: Chicken Of Sea tin Sardine

Buy on Amazon

The chicken of sea tin sardine is capable of outshining several other sardine featured in this list in overall features for the price point. These are feral cats that are spayed or neutered and then released where they were caught. The box chicken of the sea packs them in is sturdy to help protect them during shipment. These are high quality and instead of big chunks the cans contain tiny little real sardines and not mystery fish. The tin is made out of tin and aluminum. They use extra virgin olive oil.

These tins have 3 large soft fish. They are tastey with crackers. These appear to be machine-packed, and so are somewhat irregular looking in the can, unlike the King Oscar sardines, which are pretty. It comes with a slice or two of olives.

The cento tin sardine should be able to handle its purpose and duties with ease. These are great sardines in a can. These are skinned and deboned very well, and look and taste great. The sardines also taste a bit flavorless versus other brands, like they are low sodium or something, but they aren't. Your cat will find you very attractive if you dab a little of the oil on your chin. These are tasty, well packed, and just right for a low-calorie snack.

These are bigger and have much more flavor than the standard american sardines sold in large grocery chains. They last for a while on the shelf when stored properly.

Best tasting Product: Bela tin Sardine

Buy on Amazon

The bela tin sardine might be a relatively new release, but it's still nothing short of impressive this year, thanks to multiple price cuts and added new features over the past few months. These are large, meaty and amazingly fresh tasting sardines. This is certainly better products from asia, mediterranean, or baltic. These are great for paleo heads who need a snack/meal to carry in the car or have available at work at all times. The slightly smoked sardines are great but the accompanied olive oil is just so so.

This is a great sustainable product high in omega threes. It can be used in a lot of canned fish. These are wonderful on a slice of lightly buttered rye with maybe a bit of sliced up onion. The olive oil is worth using on a salad.

Larger size fish and a meaty, firm texture

There are about 8 sardines in the can, which makes these a great value. The tin is easy to open with the pull-tab. The sardines are excellent and the olive oil is the only real olive oil in any brand, however three cans of the dozen arrived dented and puffy and ready for the garbage can, this makes the value go out of the window and leaves the customer without compensation. It is a great way to enhance the flavor, texture and nutritional value of everyday meal.

Best Value For money: Matiz tin Sardine

Buy on Amazon

If you like to be adventurous with your sardines, perhaps you'll like the variety brand. The Matiz sardines are naturally rich in omega 3s and since they're packed in pure spanish olive oil or sunflower oil (lemon) you can trust the oil it's packed in too. The lemon tastes lemony without overpowering the fish flavor.

The Matiz sardine variety pack allows you to try a few cans of their greatest hits. They range from 3 big sardines per can to a dozen tiny ones. The lemon essence here is a nice accompaniment rather than covering up the faults of the Pacific sardine.

It comes with the easy open pull-tab lid, matiz sardines are convenient for hikes, travel or at home with some avocado and onion. They use larger fish, so you end up with a smaller number of meatier sections of the fish.

Why We Like This:

Worthy of serving at your next party
Sized, with around eight or ten in the can, nicely layered / packed
