Sardines, Canned, Whole

EverydayCanned

Canned sardines are small, oily fish preserved whole in oil, water, or sauce, with their edible bones providing a notable calcium and vitamin D boost. These nutrient-dense fish are exceptionally rich in omega-3 fatty acids and complete protein, while their small size minimizes mercury accumulation compared to larger seafood. Typically eaten straight from the tin, they offer a sustainable, shelf-stable protein option with a distinctive savory flavor and soft, tender texture.
