I’ve got to show this to Mrs. Vigilanteman. She runs me out of the house if she catches me eating sardines. I have to eat them when she’s not at home, wrap the empty can in a plastic bag and make sure it is outside before she gets home. I also have to brush my teeth well or she smells it on my breath. Especially my favorite kind— sardines packed in chili sauce.
Never ate a sardine in my life until a couple weeks ago when I got curious and bought a tin. They are surprisingly good. I still don’t understand how they can be good — there they are, little fish with the skin still on them, at room temperature, reeking to high heaven — and yet I ate the whole tin.
Have you tried sardines in Louisiana hot sauce? They’re great!
