Hello, Matthew. Just enjoyed a can of TJ sardines. I've been watching one of your videos each night after work as I crack into my daily can of sardines, and have thoroughly enjoyed all of them. You are enthralling in a way no one short of a poet could hope to describe in words. Thank you for being my nightly snack companion, my friend, and I look forward to tomorrow.

I love how fast you eat them. It really shows us you love this stuff and cant get enough. Because of you I devoured some KO for the first time and bought like 5 more cans of random stuff.

Waited all day to watch this and it did not disappoint! Thanks Matthew!

Tried the trader Joe sardines today. No bueno. 2 giant boys in the can. Soo many scales. Really rough eating

I ain't no beginner to a dirty sardine!

I want store brand sardines slightly less than I want a loose bag of spiders.

You know, I got all excited my first time trying buying TJ's brand name "deens." But when I actually went to go eat them, I have to admit they were a bit disappointing. I thought for sure they'd be at least slightly a cut above the rest. They taste fine, and the price is decent. But to me, they're just kind of your normal run of the mill "average Joe" of the sardine world. Maybe the trout will curb my doubt? Lol.

Yeah, if you only shop at TJ's, then I assume these sardines your only choice for a pilchard. Or if you just have to save a dollar vs some Belas. I mean, if you were just completely focused on protein and feeling confident that the quality would be consistent, they're a great buy. The trout did feel a little more special, maybe an alternative to kippers or decent cheap mackerel.

Have you ever had French sardines? I browsed your videos and didn't see any "dégustation". The French age their sardines like wine and some have the year indicated with the word, "millésime" the equivalent of "vintage". The cans are turned over from year to year as they do with champagne before the final bottling. I've got a can of 2013 and a 2014. The most famous brand is Connétable and in addition to the basic extra virgin olive oil, they have various flavors like lemon, Provençale, etc. It's become chic to enjoy canned sardines in some bistros in Paris. Sardines are great with artisanal pain de campagne, but since you eat them with chopsticks, have you considered putting them over a bowl of hot "koshihikari" rice? There ARE differences in rice, and "koshihikari" is considered one of the best. BTW I just got a shipment of Nuri sardines in tomato sauce that I'm eager to enjoy, but am having some Connétables as a first course tonight. If you ever make it to Portugal be sure to visit a sardine specialty shop where you can drool like a dude in a ... sardine store! Bon appétit!

Scales are fine. I guess they've got calcium? It's kinda nasty when there's just a bunch of them flaking off the top of the fish. If you've been eating lots of brislings, you probably wouldn't have noticed any scales. They've got to be itty bitty on them.
