Isn’t the consumption of sardines related to gout?
When fishing off Southern California, we used to catch what we called Pasadena trout, officially known as white croaker, and also called tom cod. We considered them a nuisance and always threw them back, but you will find them for sale in the seafood section of any Korean supermarket.

Koreans will even dry nasty carp, then smoke it.
Pasta Putanesca (Harlot’s pasta) wouldn’t be the same without anchovies.
We enjoyed this dish today !
Wouldn’t they smoke it first, then dry it? Would seem to make more sense.
You can mix it with sauerkraut too and it’s great. Fry the whole thing with sausages and even better.

I acquired the taste for sardines when I was a mere lad. My father liked them with mayonaise, I preferred them plain. I asked him for some, he thought I wouldn’t like them, I loved them.
I mix them in to a big ramen bowl. Prepare the ramen with perhaps a mere pinch of the seasoning that come with the ramen. Delicious and nutricious, cheap lunch too, about $2.00
I too, will try them from other countries, usually Poland or Morocco, although I draw the line at Chinese.
Yesterday I a bought a can Ligo brand from the Phillipines, with tomato sauce and chilies. Haven’t tried them yet, it’s a big can, 15 oz for $2.00 at what we call “World Mart “, not to be confused with Wal-mart, store that caters to Asian and South American tastes.
A pizza is not complete without anchovies!
And your cat will love you.
I had 2 Siamese cats that loved sardines. When they heard the sound of the lid come off the can, they would jump off the bed and run downstairs to harass me. I had to go into the basement to eat them.
It got to the point that one night I “thought” I would have some sardines. I heard them jump off the bed...
You have four of your five basic food groups there: meat, dairy, fruit and grain. Throw in some peanuts and you've got your vegetables too.
My favorite brand is King Oscar and I prefer them packed in olive oil, especially the Mediterranean and Cracked Pepper styles.
Used to just crave them when I was growing up. My favorite snack was sardines, crackers and a cup of hot tea with milk.
The bones in canned sardines are edible. You don’t even know you are eating them as the cooking process pretty much disintegrates the bones. Same with canned salmon which is so good it deserves a thread of its own. But let me say that cold canned salmon spread on a toasted bagel is about the best sandwich on earth. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.
canned salmon
Ditto on both your posts.
My wife makes salmon patties from canned salmon.
To die for.
Frankly, I could eat ANY kind of fish, every day of the week.
I get a case before hurricane season to have a good protein on hand. Then if there’s no storm most go down the hatch during football games. I’ll make pasta con le sarde once or twice, too.

Sardines in Louisiana Hot Sauce! Yum! Everybody says Gross, but I love them, just stocked up...
I love sardines. I started eating a can in the afternoon as a healthy snack, I lost 10 pounds then developed gout. Meds have helped but my doc says no more sardines.
If you're a follower of the Detroit Lions, yes there is. Personally performed a root canal in my garage with a DeWalt drill driver last weekend and saved a ton of money on dental fees while the Lions expectedly lost......
With all the dental work I need, I look forward to Sundays and the Lions..........
