Hi Everyone!

I was wondering, how do you feel about sardines?

Do you like them? Hate them? Never tried them?

And if you do like them, how do you like to eat them?

And to be fair, I'll answer it too. I do like them. LOL. And I usually put a little dash of hot sauce on them, I usually can't have hot sauce, but form some reason, it works!

Please Answer.

I like Sardines (and various other "canned fish" - mackerel, anchovies, salmon, oysters, clams).  I like to eat them on Crackers.  I like them in Oil, Hot Sauce, Mustard, or Smoked.  Have not meant too many I do not like - I know - I am strange :-\\

You mean the tinned variety in tomato sauce? I remember having a very short sardine phase as a kid - used to have them in sandwiches. Now however the idea of them grosses me out a little. I think you could easily get sick of them. So I'm on the fence.

Only on toast with a tomato sauce.

There is a vast difference in them.  Some are packed in oil, some in water.  I like the ones packed in olive oil, mash them up with a bit of hot sauce, lemon juice, maybe a bit of bread crumbs, bits of mild cheese, on a slice of bread.  Pop them in the toaster and they make a nice little snack.

My sentiments exactly.  Do not want!

If it was alive, and now it's dead and in a can, I'm not eating it  8-P

I've always liked them with mustard, but i haven't had any in a long time. I prefer the smaller ones. now i feel a sudden craving for a can of sardines. I may have to pick some up on the way home.  ::)

....and some crackers

plain ol' saltines?

I like the ones canned in oil (tuna too) and I never paid attention the size of them actually. I eat them too quickly.

(Am I supposed to eat the little bones?  :o )

I saw Andrew Zimmern eat some fresh  out the ocean with a little olive oil and salt and with the head still attatched. (He ate the head) He just oicked them clean and ate them. He left the little skeleton behind though. LOL.

you can eat the bones I think.  I always eat the bones in tinned salmon. It's a good source of calcium

you should be able to eat any part of the fish that's in the can. I stopped at the store on the way home and got me a can

I had some mustard and tabasco to dip them in and some saltine crackers.  I offered Lady Di some but she was eating Oreo's and didn't want to combine the 2  ::)
good thread apollonia1986  :)

I never liked sardines all that much. My dad used to eat at least one can a day.

a can a day  :o  wow! he must have really really liked them. 

Tried them once on a pizza in 1994 because my then boyfriend loved them.  They were alright, but prefer not to have them on there.

I do like Ceasar Salad dressing (which has anchovey paste as an ingrediant) and so I guess I like them that way.  Otherwise, I'll pass.

Yep, sure did...especially with crackers!  :)
