Brunswick Butterflied Sardines in Olive Oil

Image
  It has a fishier smell compared to some of the other sardines I've had. Looks not too bad right out of the can. Flavor wise, it is pleasantly salty and familiar. I wouldn't place it as sardines if it was served to me on a plate.  All in all nice to have as part of my lunch. :-) I would eat this again.

Fishwife!!! Anchovies and Albacore in Spicy Olive Oil

Image
So Fishwife has continued to be the most palatable tinned fish, winning in presentation and texture. Except the anchovies. They are so salty. I had taken a picture but it wasn't very nice presentation haha. It's a challenge to photograph tinned fish beautifully. I didn't realize the saltiness of the anchovies would be a problem until after I assembled my open faced cream cheese avocado with anchovies sando, but it was really too much for me. I think these were just fine, probably good for pasta or pizzas but I may just not like anchovies much. I also had the Albacore in Spicy Olive Oil, as a tuna sandwich since texturally the Fishwife tins are not much different than the basic rounds from most other brands like Genova or whatever Costco happens to be selling. It was pretty good, and Fishwife doesn't skimp on the seasonings, but I'm not sure I'd go out of my way to buy tuna from Fishwife unless there was a sale.
