Three main reasons why I chose and recommend Wild Planet sardines: 1) Tastes good! I am not exaggerating when I say that Wild Planet sardines tastes way better than other brands that I have tried so far. I am a sardine fan, and I have tried a lot of other brands. Wild Planet sardines are very firm and meaty, slightly smoky, juicy and delicious. The sardines are very well cleaned and scale free. 2) Good for your general health. a) No BPA( Bisphenol A) used as lining inside the cans. Recently there has been lot of concerns about BPA leeching into food that many companies have switched to BPA free plastics and BPA free cans. Wild Planet is one of them. For concerns about the effects of BPA,see an article on this link. http://www.webmd.com/children/environmental-exposure-head2toe/bpa b) This is a nutritionally dense food. I would go as far as considering sardines as a "superfood". These are some numbers to give you an idea of how nutritious a can of Wild Planet sardines is. Please note that all these values are PER CAN because I usually eat a whole can(4.375oz) at a time. One serving size is listed on the can as 2 oz/serving, totaling about 2.5 servings/ can. In all seriousness, I don't know of anyone that would really open a can of sardines this size, measure out 2 oz to eat, so here it goes. -- Excellent source of protein -25g /can -- Excellent source of Omega 3 that you can EAT instead of taking pills. Each can contains 313mg EPA Omega 3 and 688mg DHA Omega 3. This is comparable to 2 soft gels of Amazon's best-selling omega 3 nutritional supplements: But why take it in pill form when you can eat as part of one of your meals with all the added extra nutrients right? -- Excellent source of Calcium - over 50 % Daily Value per can.( compare that to a serving of 8oz of 2% milk which on average has about 30% Calcium in it) -- Excellent source of Vitamin B12 (over 100% DV), and Vitamin D(over 100%DV). -- Good source of Iron (over 25%DV)and Selenium (over 50%DV) and -- Also, as a bonus, contains Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a nutrient found in the body cells and believed to have an antioxidant and immune system boosting properties. 3) Good for the Ocean I have been trying to be more responsible with my food choices. I try to eat seasonal, local and organic whenever possible. And as far as seafood, although a little bit more expensive, I try to get them "wild caught" whenever I can. However, recently I discovered that it is not enough for something to be "wild caught". Two other factors are also important. --HOW THEY ARE CAUGHT. Some of the things I have learned are indeed eye opening, and really help me be more aware and environmentally responsible as a consumer on what and where to purchase my seafood products if I really care about protecting the oceans. Wild Planet uses "free school" purse seine method which means NO FADs (Fish Aggregating Devices) are used. Please see this video about FAD and why they are devastating for the ocean in destroying diversity of species. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVbp7PijR6Y --WHERE THEY ARE CAUGHT This second factor is just as important because because in certain areas, combined with unsustainable methods of fishing such as one described above, there are major concerns of overfishing to the brink of certain species of fish becoming extinct in that particular area. According SeafoodWatch, Pacific sardines are rated "Best Choice" compared to Atlantic or Mediterranean sardines because there's little bycatch and low habitat impacts. http://www.seafoodwatch.org/seafood-recommendations/groups/sardine?q=Sardine Wild Planet is in compliance with the green standards of Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch, Blue Ocean Institute, Ocean Wise, Sea Choice and Fishwise. Greenpeace has also evaluated Wild Planet tuna products and has rated them as a top brand for sustainable sourcing policies. - See more at: http://www.wildplanetfoods.com/thewild-way/on-the-boat/#sthash.0pWGQHzI.dpuf To wrap up, I love these sardines by Wild Planet. The fact that the company is very environmentally conscientious makes me love the product even more. I am currently on my second case ordered through Amazon's convenient sub and save. Compared to buying at grocery stores (if they even carry them), the price on Amazon is very good. The ones I saw at a Whole Food Market in my town was priced at $3.29/ can. So, tastes good, good for you, good for the ocean and not to mention good price here, what more could you ask for?

Quality sardines. Firm, lovely fish in every way. They are very lightly smoked, as promised. They're obviously handled and packaged with care. Look no further. Buy them.

No present or after taste of stinky fish. WoW ! I am not a big fan of sardines in the first place . Took chance on these and glad I did. Purchased a brand "SURI" first time trying. They are Great but still have that stinky smell . These do not have that issue and they are a fraction of the price. When this 12 pack goes empty, I will be buying more. Can't believe how good they are. Excellent Bug out food for the tactical survivor family . Taste better than tuna ... Happy I Am :)

I think they taste good. They seems to be slightly larger than other brands and they don't fall apart. I bought them because they were half the normal price. It's going to take me years to eat 12 cans.

I like these Wild Planet Wild Sardines in Extra Virgin Olive Oil. And the ones in water/ no salt added. The consistency is good, price isn't bad and they're always available. I like to open the can the day before and place them in glass to chill them in the fridge to make then firm and easy to slice open. I will stand the individual sardine on it's back and slice it open into a butterfly cut, then trim off the stomach lining and lift out the back bone. Then I'll spread some Hummus onto Wheat crackers and place one sardine fillet on each cracker. This day's breakfast I have some mashed yams with butter, a sliced grapefruit and a carrot with Ranch dressing to dip. And finally I add my favorite hot sauce on top of the sardines and I feel like this is the best morning meal for me...... Sardines are a Nutritional Powerhouse....😁

Best sardines I've ever had - smoked, light salt, EVOO - delicious!. Found these at Costco and have been eating them ever since. Costco also had a boneless/skinless variety in just "olive oil" (not EVOO so adulterated) and the flavor was awful - just bland. Well, Costco is no longer carrying these and I have no idea why. Wild Planet Will Sardines in EVOO are healthier, more flavorful and less processed. Just love them. SO happy I found these here albeit at a slightly higher price. Never change these Wild Planet....these are the best around!

2nd order as the first 12 cans were very fresh and more importantly delicious. I usually buy skinless and boneless but these are extraordinary as you don't get the bones or skin taste. They are yummy. I add capers and a little more lemon and sometimes Dijon but they're great right out of the tin.

Not a huge fan of this brand. Pack is very loose, with only a few whole large sardines (less head and tail) per can. Taste is pretty bland. Despite what others have said, lemon note is very distinct with this variety. Which is not surprising since each can has a small piece of lemon peel included. But did not notice much smoke flavor. Not too fishy. I prefer Atlantic sardines, which are generally smaller and usually have a bit more taste.

You will get only one pack of 120 gram net weight, not 12 packs as displayed. Who will buy 120 gm sardines for AED.53?
