Sardines in olive oil
These sardines in olive oil are caught in Newlyn, a small port town on the Cornish coast. The adventure begins when night falls, as this is when the fishermen sail up Mount's Bay in small boats in search of the tastiest Pilchard sardines. Sardines with olive oil are perfect for salads, on toast, or straight from the can!

David Pascoe's family has been fishing sardines for generations and he himself has been fishing for nearly 20 years! “My father fished, my uncle fished. I enjoyed playing around the harbor and learning the trade. The rest is history!”
If you're pregnant, it's best to avoid sardines for precautionary reasons. Having a small amount, like on a cracker, probably won't be harmful, but it's safer to skip them. This is due to the small amounts of harmful substances that sardines may contain.
No worries, none of Fish Tales' products use BPA in the cans. BPA (Bisphenol A) is a chemical commonly used as a plastic coating in packaging, like in metal cans. This coating is necessary to prevent food from reacting with the metal, which can be toxic. However, research shows that BPA can interfere with hormone balance. That's why we've made a conscious decision to use BPA-free cans. Additionally, our cans are regularly tested to ensure they fully comply with strict European regulations.

Sardines are little powerhouses from the sea! As an oily fish, they are packed with healthy omega-3 fatty acids like EPA and DHA, which your body cannot produce on its own. These essential fatty acids support brain function and keep your heart and blood vessels in top condition. Maar er is meer: sardines bevatten ook meer calcium, ijzer en vitamine B12 dan veel andere vissoorten. Perfect dus voor pescetariërs of iedereen die een gezonde boost wil. En wist je dat de olijfolie waarin onze sardines zitten, rijk is aan onverzadigde vetten en vitamine E? Samen maken ze van onze sardines niet alleen een smaakvolle, maar ook een supergezonde toevoeging aan elke maaltijd!
After opening the can, store the sardines in a non-metal, airtight container in the fridge. They will stay fresh for up to 2 days!
