Wild Planet Wild Sardines in Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Lightly Smoked - 4.4oz Can (Pack of 12)

I did a lot of research on the benefits of eating Sardines and this brand came on top. The product is first rate very tasty. Sardines is one of the best foods out there , very underrated but excellent for your health. Do not waste your money on cheap brands , Wild Planet Sardines are the best. Go and buy this brand.

Wiz Dood--you can't have looked very far because both "The Pilchard Works" and "Connetable"'s brand of sardine FILLETS are in extra virgin olive oil and have been for sale on line for a few years now! And by the way when selling sardines in Europe, unless the sardines are of European origin i.e. of the species sardina pilchardus, the manufacturers have to say where the fish originate from--Pacific, South Atlantic (South Africa) etc. Stock levels of European sardines are excellent and the fisheries in Cornwall, France and Portugal all have Marine Stewardship Council status as being sustainably managed. European sardines --Sardina pilchardus-- have always been rated as being the best tasting of the clupidae sub genus known as sardines with Pacific sardines and South African sardines come a close second. Because European sardines have been so highly regarded the name, the word "sardine" itself, on its own, can only be used on EU sold products if it is of the species sardine pilchardus. Some manufacturers who use other sub species of the same fish family have tried to disguise or mask the fact that the fish that they use is different with clever wording or claims. There are some good products out there which are not European sardines but there is also quite a lot of canned "sardine" rubbish on the market, not only in species used ---some are herrings, some are sprats and some are anchovies-- but also in the second quality, cheap processing used. 95% of what is on offer has been through a modern industrial canning process where the fish and ingredients are put in the tin raw and literally cooked in the can. Which is why some of them taste like boiled fish..... Traditional canning is very different and preserves and enhances the flavour. It is more labour intensive and so more expensive to produce but teh taste is very different. I mustn't say anymore because I have a pecuniary interest in that I am involved in the sardine---sardina pilchardus ---business!

These are hands down my favorite sardines. The flavor is mild, the light smoky taste is just right, and the quality is consistently excellent. I love that they are packed in extra virgin olive oil and are not overly fishy like some other brands. The sardines are meaty, clean, and perfect straight from the can, on crackers, or added to salads. I have tried several brands, and I keep coming back to Wild Planet. If you are looking for a healthy, high-protein snack or meal addition, I highly recommend these.

Son latas pequeñas, muy ricas

Excelente sabor de la sardina, no es fuerte, es ligero, para mi gusto está perfecta, ya que las sardinas con sabor fuerte no las toleraba. Las volveré a comprar. Me llegaron perfectas y muy rápido.

I have always liked sardines. Now because of Wild Planet, I love sardines. They are a super food and a great source of protein and omega 3 fatty acids. These are high quality sardines in my opinion. The flavor is a little Smokey, the fishes have a nice firm texture not mushy and not too salty. They are great in salads, grilled, on crackers or even straight out of the can. Purchasing them on Amazon was a great value.

Tiene muy buen sabor, no es fuerte como la normal, sin problema me la comí con una tostada unas gotas de limon y sal. Delicioso
