Ok I know it's not popular to say but I LOVE SARDINES! They are yummy and a great source of protein for my pescatarian self. They are cheap and they are easy to bring to work and last for a long time. I just adore them. They are my go-to for lunch on the run. That with some nice melba toast and I'm good to go.

Where are my other sardines lovers at?

    I used to eat them a lot growing up. I think I will get a can see if I still like them.

    Sardines are awesome. Pickled herring in the jars are even better!

    Here! On toast, on a salad, straight out of the can after a hike...yum.

    Just can't take them to the office.

    I love sardines!! Anytime I say that to someone, I always get that grimace and they look at me like I'm nuts.

    I'm here! The stores are crazy - yesterday they only had sardines in olive oil. I don't really know any other way to eat them, so I am open to suggestions. So, I now eat them on pretzel chips with a tad of mustard.

    I love sardines too. I squeeze fresh lemon or lime over them & add a few drops of hot sauce.

    When I lived in Australia, we got fresh local sardines which were even more delicious - barbequed or pan-fried.

    I love every variety there is. Lately I've been into the ones in hot sauce.

    And fresh sardines, YESSSS! I love those too.

    I have a package in my cupboard but I havent been brave enough to eat them. I used to love them when I was a little kid.

    Love sardines- so much so as a kid my grandmother (my grandfather was the one who got me hooked on them) would put a few cans in my stocking. lol Still delish. I also like the baby mussels in the can!

    I actually really like canned sardines in olive oil.. or in other sauces. Have a couple at my work's desk for lunch sometimes.

    I love sardines too! I started eating them as a little kid and will occasionally buy them now. As a kid, I just ate them out of the can, but now I like to put them on crackers. Melba toast sounds like a great idea!
