    You're weird man, I recently started eating sardines after my family brought in some from a local food bank. That and the fact that on paper these things are pretty dang nutritious and adequate for someone like me who enjoys physical activity. Got curious as to why no one really buys these things off the shelfs but would jump on the crap McDonald's sells in a heartbeat. So I looked up sardines and this channel came up and I must say I didn't expect you to be living in Brooklyn as well... small world. And I thought I was getting a bit weird for my group being in my early 20s and buying sardines lol, guess being weird makes it interesting.

    I just started my sardines and canned fish journey thanks to learning about their health reputation, and then landing on your videos. King Oscar was of course one of the first brands I tried, and I also think the EVOO is underwhelming and kinda whatever, but i do feel like the quality is there for the fish. Im thinking they might make a great value option for using the fish as your base to make other foods with, where you bring the flavor yourself. I like the olive oil too, it tastes buttery to me. But plain out of the can, im going to keep exploring other options. Thanks for the content man this community is really cool and i think niche stuff like this is the future for content. Hope you keep it up for a long time to come, you never know how far youll go! as long as you are having a good time!

    I agree. The mackerel in olive oil is the best! Hands down. But I rinse some of the oil out.

    Those KO Mediteranean are one of my favorites. I'd be super interested in your favorite of that style (I'll dig into your old videos). Fun fact, I've been eating fish out of the can since I was a small child. I remember sneaking out of church (I was around 10) and walking to the corner to buy a few cans, then sneaking back into church to eat them under the pew. I can still remember the flavor! Back then I was super excited about the ones in mustard. Great channel sir.

    The smaller the brisling sardine the higher the price. Cross pack cans are the smaller, more expensive brislings. My everyday King Oscar sardine is the red label can, olive oil, two layer, 12 - 22 fish. For me, it's the best balance of taste and cost. The best tasting brislings are well smoked and firm. I don't like sardines so big that they are bland tail meat only. For me a sardine should be a whole fish: everything except the head. And yeah, I partially open a can and let the oil drain off for five minutes before eating.

    I have the sound off cuz I'm at work right now but upon seeing there was a video for canned fish reviews I had to check it out. I regularly buy the King Oscar lightly smoked kipper snacks. It's perhaps a weird thing say but I love them. They are delicious, healthy and low cost. Oh my goodness, I could totally subscribe to a channel for canned fish. Cheers from Lynnwood, Washington, USA.

Wondering what I should try next! I think I am hooked

    Your being fair in your King Oscar assessment. I forgot which King Oscar I tried, but it was similar to the mediterranean style, but was over done with black pepper, but it didn't have the olives.
    I iwished you would have tried it. You would have tasted the black pepper more than the sardines.

    Started watching your vids yesterday & it convinced me to go with KO, I went with Mediterranean brislings bc I gotta have some extra oomph in there. I am obsessed! Gonna try the mackeral soon & stock up on these bad bois. I've heard hot sauce & mustard are good with them, so I'm trying that tomorrow! Refuse to try cheaper brands bc I do not want mushy or dry ones--staying away from boneless & skinless!
