Bought a can of Minerva sardines, bringing them home to enjoy, only to realize I still had another can lying around. I haven't had dines in so long I forgot I had any left over at all :(

Still haven't eaten them, either.

So you have two delicious cans of sardines and you are upset, why?

Canned seafood question: I have an unopened can of crab meat in the fridge that's a couple of months expired. I figure things in cans last a long time, so it should still be good, right? Or at least if it's bad, I'll be able to tell from the smell when I open it?

Some canned crab is okay. The stuff that is 50 bux a pound satisfies this Maryland expat in lieu of the real deal, for crabcakes anyway.

Yeah if it's bad you will be able to tell by the smell. My money would bet it is bad.

Thank you for the hot dine tips, I picked up one of the boxes of KO Mediterranean's from Amazon and they arrived:


What treasures await.....


What a beautiful bounty


Straight from the tin into my mouth

My local store stopped carrying all KO flavors except for cracked pepper so looks like I'll be gettin my dines from Amazon from now on.

Part 1 of my Amazon haul (the Mediterranean dines) arrived today. I'm not usually a plain-fish man, but it's been a long time since I had these and I ended up wolfing down two cans with nothing but balsamic and a couple of crackers. I slowed down enough towards the end of the last can to add some chopped tomato and more olives.

I was simply worried that I had somehow grown too old for dines. Luckily, I had to stay up late working today and had nothing prepped to eat, but lo and behold, crisp bread and dines save the day/night.

I would recommend supplementing the anchovies with sardines not replacing them.

Also needs capers and ditch the onion. And use a liberal amount of crushed red chilies instead too.

And you are gonna need more garlic. 2 cloves for 4 servings??? NO. :colbert:

I'm still trying to figure out how you could be too old for sardines, the dadliest catch, without being restricted to a liquid/mush diet.

A sad tale of a frustrated 'dine dad-

I came home early from work and intended to go paddle around our lake and eat a tin of dines but upon opening the cupboard I found NO SARDINES. Suspecting one of my 5 goddamn kids as the culprit I searched the house and found no one to yell at so I went to the lake anyway. There I found my 10 year old and one his buddies fishing using MY SARDINES AS BAIT. Of course they didn't catch anything and the last tin of my beloved Bela's was lying on the ground, looking empty and sad. They didn't even have the decency to eat any of them because "fish in cans are yucky". These boneheads have never cleaned a fish in their lives so I asked them how yucky they thought cutting one open would be. The response I got was "I was gonna make you do it since you like yucky fish". I wanted to be done with life right then and there :shepicide:

Now I am 'dine-less and I'm gonna have to start hiding them again. 3 of my kids like the dines but this little fucker apparently just likes to waste them. Anyone want to adopt a 'dine thief??

Saturday breakfast of smoked black pepper mackerel fillet mashed up with a couple of soft boiled eggs, on a piece of hot buttered wholemeal toast with a bit of rocket salad. A stinky but satisfying breakfast :coolfish:

A good, healthy breakfast.

It sucks that I can't take dines to work for lunch, but no matter how I try to contain the scent, the co-workers complain.

King Oscar's tireless social media person just told me I have a gray XL T-shirt and a cap coming my way from two different recent promotions, hopefully with more free coupons too! They can go with my red AND black aprons, tote bag, and can cover.

Strangely, despite being a Swede, we have no real access to King Oscar here. We have Gustaf instead, tho only in tomato sauce. It is kind of mindboggling that the two different brands are apparently a thing, given how the Oscar in question was also a Swedish king.

What I am trying to say here is that I wish I had access to more cool dines locally. Especially since Gustaf is apparently made from sprats.

It is just the stuffy Eurotrash in me implying that they aren't real dines and are therefore undeserving of being eaten.

(They are still delicious, I just wish we had more variety)
