Sardines-Is it love or hate?

i try to eat a couple cans a week for the fish oil content and low mercury. i prefer tuna to sardines, but the mercury in tuna is a concern. quality of sardines seems to vary with the brand you select and how it i packed. the imported olive oil packed sardines, a little more expensive are worth it IMO.
I have to secretly eat sardines or smoked oysters late at night after wife is asleep. Mmmm, tasty.
Ever wonder how a thread with no activity for 3 years suddenly comes to life? I can't even find threads I was posting in two weeks ago.
But since it is here, nothing like a cold beer, mustard sardines on a saltine, watching baseball on TV.

It's been quite a while since I had any. We used to eat them all the time when I was growing up. Always in mustard sauce and on Saltines. I may have to pick some up, but I'll have to eat them when the wife isn't home.
I like Sardines, and that is all I have to say.
Yes, sardines in mustard sauce on saltines. I'll have them for lunch or sometimes a light dinner after work. I also like the Beach Cliff fish steaks in Louisiana hot sauce, also on saltines.
+1, used to take a few cans of kippers and a leaf of crackers out when I went ice-fishing in MN. Great snack!
Sardines got me through college. Sardines and tabasco on rice.
It's up there with ramen noodles, canned tuna, and Swanson pot pies.

10-4 on that. I love'em. Lately I've added the makarel and smoked kippers. I try to eat them everyday or every other day. I like them with hot sauce and a sweet pickle.
I've never tried them, nor any of the pickled/canned seafood type things. I am just not that adventurous, I guess.

If I said they are extremely healthy would that help?I've never tried them, nor any of the pickled/canned seafood type things. I am just not that adventurous, I guess.
lol Since the very thought of them feels a bit repulsive to me, I'm going to go ahead and say no. Guess that puts me in the hate column.

I would say there must be a third catogory of "no way" which you fit into. To hate them, first you must try them.

Makes sense.
This thread made me buy a couple cans of sardines for old times sake!! Sardines and Tabasco on hot rice for lunch today!
There was a time when I branched out from sardines and started eating kippered snacks and cans of smoked oysters too. Now they're kind of expensive.

Too salty for me, but I can eat a mess of batter-fried smelt. 
sardines are good but, smoke trout is the best
@Chango - the smoked oysters are awesome! Hard for me to find now though. I'm going to try the kippered snacks. I'm pretty sure I tried them years ago but don't remember what I thought of them. It must not have been enough to pull me away from my usual sardines & fish steaks.
