Canned Sardines

Canned Sardines are small oily fish commonly sold preserved in cans and widely used in Mediterranean and coastal cuisines as a snack, on toast, or in salads and pasta dishes. They are a concentrated source of protein, providing 24.6g of protein per 100g, and are notable for their omega‑3 fatty acids as well as vitamin B12 and selenium. As a tinned product they offer shelf-stable convenience and a favorable fat profile, though the canning medium (oil and added salt) can increase calories and sodium compared with fresh preparations.
