I definitely like 'em, too, but in the tomato sauce. The big treat I only
do around Easter (dunno why) is a jar of herring, with fresh bread.
All things in moderation. I try to keep it down to about 1 or 2 a week, and
only when they're on sale.

I usually buy something to use with my breadmaker whole wheat bread, and
never get the quantity right to use up both the bread and topping.
I use the sardines (or herring) to finish off the loaf.

Just make sure you get a variety of foods (fruit and veggies), and keep the
treats in moderation. (same old song)

When I was young, I loved sardine sandwiches. I haven't purchased any
in decades ... don't know why, really.
