Sardines (Canned in Water)

Sardines (Canned in Water)s are small oily fish commonly sold canned and eaten worldwide—popular in Mediterranean and coastal cuisines as a convenient, shelf-stable source of seafood. They are often packed in water (as here), oil, or tomato sauce and used on salads, toast or in pasta dishes. As a food, Sardines (Canned in Water)s provide 20.9g of protein per 100g and are notable for their concentrated amounts of vitamin B12, selenium and long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, making them a compact source of nutrients that support metabolism and nerve function. Because many preparations include the softened bones, they can also contribute dietary calcium. Nutritionally this product is a high-quality protein with a heart-friendly fat profile and relatively low saturated fat and sodium compared with many processed seafood options. Their nutrient mix—especially omega-3s and B12—makes them a strong choice for cardiovascular and cognitive health.
