I'm 75 yrs old. Got my first taste of sardines compliments of a hobo who was passing through my town in the 1950s. I've been a sardine lover ever since.
I'm a little late to see this. But, I have to tell you, I totally enjoyed watching you do this sardine and herring taste test❣️ I love canned sardines, herring, mackerel, smoked oysters, and even anchovies 😋 My dad raised me right! 🤣
The response to eating sardines while fishing has been great. So I started a channel called Time to eat the bait and will feature a different tin of seafood every Wed. and Sat. I would edit out the sardine part to keep the videos short but people keep commenting where is time to eat the bait?
King Oscar Mediterranean is my favorite by far. It is my go to sardine. Excellent flavor, texture and quality. Plus I prefer my canned fish in olive oil.
Just recently started my own sardine taste tests. Only tried 3 on this video, Season, Brunswick and Great Value. Ate half a Great Value, gave the remainder to my dog. Ate half a Brunswick, gave the remainder to my dog. Ate half a Season, ate the remainder myself. My personal favorites so far are the Polar smoked Brisling sardines.
Sardines are one of the most nutritious foods in a can. I eat anything from the ocean. I've loved sardines my whole life. My wife however, hates sardines. So I eat my sardines out in my shop. Sometimes I catch em from my kayak. Very good food.
Love me some canned seafood. I grew up extremely poor with 6 siblings. My dad and I were the only ones who enjoyed sardines so we were guaranteed to always have a snack in the pantry. Now that I'm older and slightly richer, the best sardines I've had are Nuri sardines from Portugal. They cost a fortune as far as sardines go but damn are they good. I never go camping or fishing without them. There's also a Hawaiian dish made with canned sardines that's really good. Can't think of the name right now but you can find recipes on TH-cam for it.
I grew up eating sardines because I’m Portuguese and grew up in Northern California.. recently moved to Portugal to retire and the sardines here are so much better and fresh.
I have fond memories of my dad eating sardines, Mackerel and Smoked Oysters. I have always loved any form of canned oily fish. I have always ate 2 cans of sardines a week for the last thirty years. When you don't want to be bothered by the wife or kids down a can of Sardines or Mackerel before the night is over you will be left alone, Or you will get the whole bed for the night. LOL
I agree, best memories ever eating sardines and herring with my Dad! In one video I call them a time machine that takes me back to the 1970's in my parents kitchen.
2/19/23......Sardines, ROCK!.....Weekly sardine eater, here! They are great in chicken broth,...makes a swell, poor man's fish soup. Had it for dinner last night. Plus croutons. I eat all the brands you are showing. An inexpensive meal, plus they are an excellent source of protein, plus Omega 3 vitamin benefits. Kippered Herring fillets is another favorite of mine. They provide you a cheap meal that is GOOD for you. I'm almost 70 years old, been eating them since I was a kid. Back when the tins required you use a built-in, metal "key", to pull back the top. Sometimes the present day, modern tins, will not open properly. It is possible the pull tab will fail, and you could be "shit-out-luck", in terms of opening them, if you don't have a mechanical rotary can opener, in your kitchen tool drawer. That is really a rare occurrence. They are better than eating a cookie, to stave off hunger. They are mild, and usually low in salt. They taste good in salads, even though I am not a fan of salads, Ha! They are a perfect "emergency" food. Keep some cans in your car, they never go bad. Great for camping trips. If your power ever goes out during a winter storm, they will keep you alive and satisfied. I used to add A-1 steak sauce, poured over a serving, when I wanted to be "fancy". Delish!
@@SRadigFishing Yeah, I buy a brand of chicken broth that has less salt & fat. Add a tin of sardines, chop it up a bit,.....into the micro-wave to heat it up. ( a person could get fancy and add already cooked vegetables),...not me, I'm too lazy.
I just found this video! Now Radig, as a fellow SE Louisiana kayak fisherman I'm saying: " What is this guy doing eating sardines?" Then I thought, "Oh yeah! We coonasses will eat anything that swims (and many things that don't swim)! Seriously, it was a great video - you did a great job! I like sardines myself - great food to store for the apocalypse!
Fun video. I'm not a big fan of canned fish, but I eat sardines for their nutritional value. I usually buy whatever is the most inexpensive. Glad to see my choices meet with your approval.
Man ! I love Sardines ! I like mine in hot sauce ! And also with some cocktail sauce! King Oscar is hard to beat but the 88 cent walmart sardines are an awesome value and delicious! Great video, Hooked on sardines for life ! Love them ! Right out of the can ! I miss the old days with the roll up key for the can ...
I have another channel called (Time To Eat The Bait) where all I do is review sardines and tinned seafood. I am 14 tins into a series of 18 tins on sardines with hot sauce or peppers right now.
The kippers I remember from childhood were dried salted red herrings and they didn't come in a can. They weren't juicy. I started hankering for them and had to special-order them from Jamaica. They have largely disappeared in the US.
Great video! Best part for me? I haven’t thought about that church key and rolling back the top of the tin in forever. I like the tin with the foil. Good idea. Great lunch with a cold beer or some white wine. Excellent!
I love sardines, the Canadian style sardines by Brunswick are my go to but there are plenty of types of sardines where I live in the UK as well as pilchards, another oily fish I love is mackerel, good video and good on you for your sardine habit. Not enough people have one.
I was surprised to see Brunswick Sardine filets, I don't think I've ever seen them in Canada, perhaps they are an export product. The Brunswick sardines I get are just regular sardines, about 5 to a can. You can get them in several flavours.
That was a great video !!! I love sardines and I have and have since I was a kid. About 60 years ago....long time. I've tried every one that you had and I will say that the Polar kippers are pretty damn good. My favorite is and always has been the Brunswick kippers. Now , I will say that they have changed a bit over the years but I love em. Nothing wrong with the King Oscars sardines. There isn't anything wrong with any sardine or kipper. Just my 2 cents worth. Thank you for this great video. I'll look for more of your videos!!!
I actually live in New Brunswick, where the Brunswick sardines come from. What I find amusing is that you don't fish in the rain. Of course it's snowing here...
There's a few brands with mustard or tomato sauce I love. I've had all the brands you showed here. I agree with you about nutrients missing on the skinned and deboned types. Costco has a nice brand here in Louisiana. My favorite way to eat sardines is in a sandwich with thin-sliced onions, mustard and maybe some capers or sliced pepproncini. The herring I just like straight out of the tin. You mention canned salmon: makes the best "burger" patties. The best smoked herring, etc., I've ever had came from a Deli in Los Angeles where they sell the whole fish. My Polish in-laws always served herring in white sauce from a jar at holiday meals. Good stuff.
I love these products, as a boy (55 years ago) we would have for Dinner Herring in tomato sauce, with mashed potatoes with finely chopped raw onion mixed though the mashed potatoes, Enjoyed your video
I eat sardines and herring often. I only buy if they are not packed in oil. Packed in oil is a crap shoot - olive oil is not likely to be of high quality and vegetable oils are very inflammatory. My preferred fish isVita brand herring is wine sauce or in cream sauce. I love fried herring (bratherring) and herring in mustard sauce. Even packed in water is better than oil. And I'm with you: skin and bones. Need that collagen. I found this video very informative. Thanks.
Thanks for your wonderful video! Canned fish especially sardines are so neglected by people. I enjoyed the comments. Sardine lovers unite & spread the good news!😂❤❤
i want sardines now for sure ! they all look great ! i do like Polar brand a lot ! you are cool AF ! you like them all ! 😆 nothin wrong with that ! you did say witch one you like better so thats cool !
I’ve been eating the King Oscar sardines for the past couple of years. I’ve seen those Cliff House sardines at the dollar store but was weary about trying them. I might give them a try now.
Well, I was planning to have a full English breakfast. But your video was so entertaining that I had to pause it midway to search for a can of sardines so I could eat Sardines on toast. Thanks for making my day. Hope the rain cleared up. I subscribed....
Great video, and I concur on your ratings. Polar, and every other can from Germany I've had are excellent, but usually the most expensive. Brunswick has a kipper called "Golden Smoked" I find them to be smoked more than the standard and much closer to Polar in texture. Keep an eye out for them.
Cool video. I'm going to get my 1st sardines ever tomorrow, gotta make sure I get the good ones. I'm on a sardine video binge and I can't get them out of my head. People really seem like love them. You seem like an easy going person from the way you carry yourself.
I must admit that I'm a huge fan of sardines. Blame my Swede heritage. But in this modern world, the healthiest food is seafood that includes the whole fish, and a species that has little bioaccumulation of heavy metals. That makes sardines a superfood. Problem is, the Baltic is the most polluted sea in the world, so even sardines from Poland are a danger. Thanks for doing a taste test. I'm with you on liking a fishy flavor that is clean. Nothing wrong with fishy. What I find offputting is fish that tastes of metal or rot. Try doing a taste test of canned seafood from the far East. There are some really interesting things you can get there.
I'd love to send you some of our Australian sardines from the Southern Ocean. We also have Mackeral fillets which are real nice. The bonus of the ocean i live on, the Southern ocean is it is pretty much pristine, it's deep and cold and we have a great product here. Get in touch and I'll send you some
Thanks for the offer. If I can't find some in local import markets I might take you up on that. For now send me some of the brand names so I can look for them.
I try sardines where ever I go and got to tour of a sardine factory on the coast of Maine. My sardine sandwich is whole wheat bread toasted, mayonnaise, pickle relish and sardines. Thanks for getting me hungry !!
@@SRadigFishing Yes it was a one of my highlights to see the plant’s machines Unfortunately it was on a Sunday and it was closed. The plant maintenance manager was there along with a few other men. The manager took me for the tour after I asked him about the plant while I was walking around the parking lot checking out the place. I don’t know if they are still in business or there are any sardine factories left up there. I sent the maintenance manager a box of good cigars for showing me the plant. Enjoy the sardines
Thee Sardine Whisperer. Sardines are the best FASTLUNCH and HEALTHIEST food to go on the go 👍 put a tin in your backpack back pockets n some chopsticks 🥢 to dig out the corners of the cans but 👁️never separate the top from can so you can push top back into can when done cause you don’t want that juice all over your car or table or it will smell like a Moroccan Sardines cannery workers Sandals 🩴 🩴 😁 King.Oscar’s are tha best, that’s why he’s the King [🐟👑🐟]
Would love to see a taste comparison on canned Salmon, my mother always loved to eat them or make fish cakes with them. Loved the comparison of the Sardines, although the Brunswick Kippers are my favorite, I'll have to try the King Osar ones. Thanks
Here is a link to exactly that, th-cam.com/video/4TsepZkH-wQ/w-d-xo.html I have another channel Time To Eat The Bait. I post most my sardine eating there because they make my fishing videos too long sometimes.
Thanks for doing something I've always wanted to try: a lot of different sardines in a side-by-side taste test. I'm a King Oscar fan, but I will be more open minded about other brands, having watched you. Thanks a million!
I prefer mine packed in water but get along fine with most brands. I just tried those Brunswick fillets last week. Only got one tin since I'd never seen them before. I'll be grabbing more of those later. The kipper snacks I've been on come in a paper box, don't recall the name but good and smokey. Great snacks to have around for the keto diet.
I'm 75 yrs old. Got my first taste of sardines compliments of a hobo who was passing through my town in the 1950s. I've been a sardine lover ever since.

Sounds like that's a great problem to have❣️ I will check out that channel, too 😀
Me too!! Try deviled eggs topped with anchovy, so good!!!😊
spicy pickled herring is whats up
King Oscar Mediterranean is my favorite by far. It is my go to sardine. Excellent flavor, texture and quality. Plus I prefer my canned fish in olive oil.
King Oscar does make a good quality sardine, seems like most are canned in Poland.
The Oscar is King
Ditto.
That was fun! Great alternative when you can’t fish. I learned a bunch of new things about sardines, and I had to open up a can. 😃
I agree Ronny, canned fish in Olive oil.
Just recently started my own sardine taste tests. Only tried 3 on this video, Season, Brunswick and Great Value.
Ate half a Great Value, gave the remainder to my dog.
Ate half a Brunswick, gave the remainder to my dog.
Ate half a Season, ate the remainder myself.
My personal favorites so far are the Polar smoked Brisling sardines.
Just tried Rugenfish, Fried Herring in marinade. Might be the best yet, taste like jared pickled herring.
Your dog is happy.
Season sardines are my favorite, Packed in olive oil.
Polar brisling is my fav too!
lucky dog !!
Thanks for the taste test. Loved hearing the rain and thunder.
We had another big round of rain and lightning yesterday, should have filmed another Sardine video. Thanks for watching.
yes herring the rain was nice
Sardines are one of the most nutritious foods in a can. I eat anything from the ocean. I've loved sardines my whole life. My wife however, hates sardines. So I eat my sardines out in my shop. Sometimes I catch em from my kayak. Very good food.
I eat them out in the garage, my wife can’t stand them. Lol
Love canned fish. Excellent post sir. I’d destroy all of them but prefer a kipper on a club with Tabasco 🤙
My grandad, who introduced me to sardines when I was 3-4 years old, always insisted that the cheaper the sardine, the better. Bourbon too.
Since I made the video I have tried several other cheap cans and bought cans as high as eight dollars. Some of the cheap ones are just as good.
King Oscar Mediterranean might change your mind.
Your grandad knew his sardines. The cheaper they are, the more you can buy.
Don't go TOO cheap on the whiskey. There's a sweet spot.
I find this to be true
Bumblebee sardines cost $1.29 where I live, and they're better than the king Oscar in my opinion
I grew up in New Orleans but live in Texas now. Subscribed as soon as i heard him talk.
Your awesome what a cozy and informational video thanks.

NURI are awesome, some things are worth the extra cost. Thanks for watching.
I agree 100% I just got the recurring order for the spicy Niris.
King Oscar for me all day long, especially the Mediterranean style.
King Oscar are by far the best sardines in my opinion.. The only kind I'll eat, and I eat a lot of sardines..
I grew up eating sardines because I’m Portuguese and grew up in Northern California.. recently moved to Portugal to retire and the sardines here are so much better and fresh.
I hope to get some fresh ones some day.
Sooo jealous!
That's where Nuri sardines are from. $7 a can here in the USA

This is the most honest and trustworthy food review video I have ever seen. You mukbang fans need some help.
I've also tried a lot of "sardines " My favorite were the New Brunswick packed in Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Thank you for a very informative video.

I did a similar taste taste, including a number of expensive European brands. King Oscar came out on top for me.
Thank you! This was VERY HELPFUL 👍👍👍
trader Joe's best sardines !!
I have several tins of Trader Joe's seafood to review. Coming soon.
This man loves sardines. Most people think they're gross. They are an aquired taste. I only eat them for their nutritional goodness
I prefer the Seasons brand, skinless. I can’t handle the fins. To me, they taste like a richer tuna.
I like the sardines in mustard sauce!
me to.
You're doing God's work, Sir. Thank you for not leading us astray.
I like the ones in olive oil. Dump the whole can in a salad and be done with it.
You even wore your Gordon's Fisherman shirt for the filming! I love some Sardines packed in LA Hot Sauce
Next test will be the hot sauce/mustard ones.
I eat 2 of those king oscars (plain ones) a week for a quick lunch at work. Add a little mustard and salt and they are fantastic and a true superfood.
Great vid thanks.
I just found this video! Now Radig, as a fellow SE Louisiana kayak fisherman I'm saying: " What is this guy doing eating sardines?" Then I thought, "Oh yeah!

TY, Now I can eat my sardines, the Season brand. Give this guy some lemon.
or even lemon powered black pepper open sprinkle let stand a few and make them disappear
Season sardines are the best, we buy them six at a time from Costco.
Kipper snacks are great Bronswiare both great fish
When I was growing up King Oscar brisling sardines were in sild (fish oil) and packed in Norway. They were the best.
Sild is a new term to me, Thanks for the information.
What a great idea! Thank you. Keep them coming!
ED here, luv the polar wood smoked. the larger the fish the stronger, stinkery they are! beachcliff usually strong. king oscar are smaller and milder.
i opened a tin of king oscar and joined you!
Fun video. I'm not a big fan of canned fish, but I eat sardines for their nutritional value. I usually buy whatever is the most inexpensive. Glad to see my choices meet with your approval.
People just don't know about the health benefits! Thanks for watching.
Highly recommend you get ones in olive oil or water if you’re eating them for health reasons
Man ! I love Sardines ! I like mine in hot sauce ! And also with some cocktail sauce! King Oscar is hard to beat but the 88 cent walmart sardines are an awesome value and delicious! Great video, Hooked on sardines for life ! Love them ! Right out of the can ! I miss the old days with the roll up key for the can ...

Ty i have heard great things about great value sardines from walmart in water , buying in 2 weeks 100 cans, ty for showing me what they look like.
I love Sardines. Growing up in the Caribbean, It was the Brunswick Brand from Canada, it was delicious.
I find I like the Brunswick also.
Thank you for this my good man! I enjoyed this a great deal! 🎣
Sure done made me hungry! Thumbs up video ~John
❤ canned sardines too.....and the herring and kipper ones are very good too 👍🏼
They're back in style and good for you too!
Absolutely delightful. I personally love Season brand whole sardines in EVOO (extra virgin olive oil), eat at least 2 cans a week!
I really like the sea cliff deer
The kippers I remember from childhood were dried salted red herrings and they didn't come in a can. They weren't juicy. I started hankering for them and had to special-order them from Jamaica. They have largely disappeared in the US.
I will look for those, they sound good. Thanks for watching.
that sounds very good, I have never seen them that way here where I live.
Great video, thanks for your time. Doc said I need to lower my LDL so here I come Sardines. Also I spy a couple nice Foxes
Great video! Best part for me? I haven’t thought about that church key and rolling back the top of the tin in forever. I like the tin with the foil. Good idea. Great lunch with a cold beer or some white wine. Excellent!
Showing your age by even knowing what a church key is! Thanks for watching.
My. Grandfather would fix sardines for me asa young boy. Usually on rye bead with butter. He always shared his beer with me. Great memories.

Ohh just threw out most of a can. As a Canadian, I say buy Portuguese

its a latvian fish --------- STAY WAY
Nuri caned sardines from Portugal.... Thank me later :) ... Sardines in or out of can very underrated .
I have had and do like NURI products. Look for future reviews of NURi and thanks for watching.
i want sardines now for sure ! they all look great ! i do like Polar brand a lot ! you are cool AF ! you like them all ! 😆 nothin wrong with that ! you did say witch one you like better so thats cool !
Great video. Love your taste comments on the "Sardines en boîte" 😀🍴Very gastronomic.
Salutations from France 🇫🇷
King Oscar are my go to sardines, hands down.
Brunswick in Canada is the biggest Sardine canning facility in the entire world. They use sardines from the cold north.
I've had all of these, the Brunswick herring is the best. I like the Brunswick sardines too. Got to be in oil.
I like them in oil better also.
Cannibals love tuner. Especially the piano tuner.
Is this a case where your wife said "Don't you open those smelly fish in this house!" LOL, I loved your reviews. Thanks!
Short answer is YES!
I had to stop and watch this. I love Sardines and Kipper Snacks. I couldn't tell you how many cans of the Polar brand I've bought over the years.
Mashed sardines, brunwick brand, diced onion, white vinegar, bread/toast. A real treat when i was a kid. 😊
The sardine oil dripping on your shirt made me give you a like and a comment. You'd make the best neighbor

I often buy Beachcliff herring steaks and they are always delicious.

You must be the friend of every cat in the neighborhood!
Soybean oil is a deal-breaker. Tried some Nuri brand from Portugal recently. Very good quality, but expensive.
I ate a lot of canned sardines when I was in Portugal. A wine bar in Lisbon served me some in the can!

I don’t know if they are still in business or there are any sardine factories left up there. I sent the maintenance manager a box of good cigars for showing me the plant. Enjoy the sardines
No sardine plants operating in Maine now.
@@Bluemoon00924 Yes and sad. Haven’t been to coastal Maine in quite a few years and loved it Fresh steamers and a cold beer !!
The King Oscar ones with 2 layers (extra small sardines) are my favorite, but oh so pricey!
8:40 Is that an '84-'85-'86 Mustang in the background? _THOSE_ were some fun cars to drive.
There is an 85 drag car and a 89 project car.
This review is right on the money!
Excellent video Brunswick my favorite
Thee Sardine Whisperer. Sardines are the best FASTLUNCH and HEALTHIEST food to go on the go 👍 put a tin in your backpack back pockets n some chopsticks 🥢 to dig out the corners of the cans but 👁️never separate the top from can so you can push top back into can when done cause you don’t want that juice all over your car or table or it will smell like a Moroccan Sardines cannery workers Sandals 🩴 🩴 😁 King.Oscar’s are tha best, that’s why he’s the King [🐟👑🐟]
My go to fishing snack, best part is they won't ever spoil!
Would love to see a taste comparison on canned Salmon, my mother always loved to eat them or make fish cakes with them. Loved the comparison of the Sardines, although the Brunswick Kippers are my favorite, I'll have to try the King Osar ones. Thanks
Here is a link to exactly that, th-cam.com/video/4TsepZkH-wQ/w-d-xo.html I have another channel Time To Eat The Bait. I post most my sardine eating there because they make my fishing videos too long sometimes.
King Oscar are the best!
Thank you for this! I'm going to give them a try too.
I can see your wife sent you to the garage...LOL
Brunswick are my go to cause they are easy to get. Theres a brand called millionaire club thats awsome
I will look for the millionaire brand. Thanks
Thanks for doing something I've always wanted to try: a lot of different sardines in a side-by-side taste test. I'm a King Oscar fan, but I will be more open minded about other brands, having watched you. Thanks a million!
My favourite are called Millionaires - sooooo good
the very best sardines are the Riga gold take my word for it
I have two jars to review soon. Thanks for watching.
@@SRadigFishing you won't eat anything else after tasting these!
If you have an Aldi grocery store in your area, they have really good herring in mango/pineapple curry or tomato sauce, mango is my favorite.
No Aldi stores around here but thanks for the tip. I will look for these products when ever I travel.
Great Value sardines are excellent for under a buck. I eat them exclusively. 2 cans a day.
I find the cheap ones are the same quality as high priced tins!
Love the video...❤❤
I prefer mine packed in water but get along fine with most brands. I just tried those Brunswick fillets last week. Only got one tin since I'd never seen them before. I'll be grabbing more of those later. The kipper snacks I've been on come in a paper box, don't recall the name but good and smokey. Great snacks to have around for the keto diet.
