HEB's Hill Country Fare brand now sells 67 cent sardines here hooooly poo poo. It says wild caught, but not where. Do I buy all of them, or none? I'm so conflicted. E: wait they say product of Morocco. Is that good or bad?

I like Moroccan dines. If I were you I'd buy one can, eat it in your car in the parking lot, then decide if you want more. Bonus points if you eat them with a pocket knife while sitting on the hood

I also got a can of beach cliff sardines in soybean oil with 'hot chilies', I've never had this brand but usually I'm pretty underwhelmed but I got these cheap so what the hell. Anything cool I can do with em besides just eat them normal or scramble eggs with em like I'd usually do?

Anything cool I can do with em besides just eat them normal or scramble eggs with em like I'd usually do? I’d use them as an ingredient I had Beach Cliffs in soybean oil as my introduction to sardines and that was a bad idea. I found them to be fishy but not in a good way

Wow what a great thread. Been eating some 'dines on toasted pumpernickel lately. Grocery Outlet's been carrying nice 4.3oz cans of Season brand in tomato and mustard sauce for just $0.79 each, so I stocked up on that last week. Hearing 'yall talk about the KO tapatios, decided to try out my toasty 'dines with some hot sauce today. Tried both Cholula and Tapatio, great results. Thanks goons.

Man I really need to buy some more fish before the fall contracts start. I can't wait to see people whig out about my canned fish and crackers between jumps in containment. Like I've ran into dudes on a site that will complain about the smell of some tuna.

Tomato packed 'dines tend to be the worst and most intended for sauce based use. 'specialty flavored ones' like Mediterranean ones packed with olives, those packed with peppers, or special flavors tend to be best. IMO the smoked mackrel with special flavorings like these tend to be even better than the sardines. The tomato packed sardines tend to be the "tuna in olive oil in cans of dubious origin" of '...the hell do I do with this" fish.

i like a nice, whole complete 'dine and i typically find the ones in tomato sauce crumble and fall apart more easily. perhaps the acidity of the tomato does it. i have no idea.

Tomato sardines tend to be bad, but that's because the tomato sauce is often used to to cover the texture of bad sardines. Or maybe it really is just the acidity. Buying good sardines and tomato sauce separately and then combining them for lunch is definitely a nice time, though.

also because, in my experience, the 'tomato sauce' they come packed in always seems to be like, the stuff 'Chef Boy'ar'dee' ravioli comes packed in, the sauce itself just seems to be nasty. Like if it was real nice quality premium spaghetti stuff, like the crap you pay like $8-9 bucks a jar for (let's be honest, you've probably splurged and tried that rather than make a good one yourself, some of the good ones are pretty decent), they might be alright, maybe. But the combination of generally crap tomato sauce and weird fish just aren't doing themselves much of a favor together. And, I'm going to go off on a real tangent here, tinned fish and even real nice tomato sauce typically just isn't what I want. It's just a weird flavor/texture combo to start with. Now, if you're talking adding ANCHOVIES to a good tomato sauce, alright. Now we're talking. But really, that's adding a salt bomb/umami component to a pasta sauce. That is something else. That's kinda like adding capers to a sauce. It's more of a seasoning. Sardines, as they are, well, they're sorta soft-ish fish just kinda doing their own thing waiting to be eaten kinda on their own. Not really a white-fish fillet waiting to be sauced, not really a seasoning thing to be added to a sauce...it's just sorta..fish stuffed in there. Mushing them up in tomato just really isn't doing either thing any favors. WELL THATS MY FISH AND TOMATO SAUCE STORY THANK YOU

I do not like tomato dines, but I've only been able to try it with the cheap ones. I mentioned seeing some 67 cents generic HEB 'dines awhile ago. Well I took one can of the plain smoked ones in oil home just to sample it. The ultimate test of 'dine goodness for me is how they taste kind of mashed up in a bowl of plain fluffy rice. So I waited till the next time I had a big pot of it ready I was using in a casserole and cracked open the can. Looked a little scary:  (I took this picture to horrify some Discord friends.) There were a couple of little scales in there that I wasn't sure about, and let's be clear, I'm not in the habit of going near any 'dines that cost under a dollar. But Hill Country Fare is just HEB's great value equivalent and I trust HEB. And drat, glad I did because these were delicious. Nice firm texture and good flavor. Just the right amount of smoke flavor without it being overpowering. Also tried these at the time which were just a little more expensive:  Now, being that these were also from Morocco and looked identical in size, just a bit grosser because they were broken up a bit, I was like heh okay, these are the exact same sardines just with slightly nicer packaging.' But these wound up going to the dog, the oil was unpleasantly heavy and the fish itself tasted dry in that same weird way tuna in water does. (dog was happy however.) Since for all I know they'll raise the price later or switch them out for something else, when I was at HEB again on Saturday I bought an entire drat dozen of them. The other flavor there was Louisiana hot sauce, which had already been picked clean as far back on the shelf as any normal human could reach, but only a few of the plain smoked ones had been touched. It kind of blows my mind that these fish can be harvested on the other side of the world, cleaned and crammed in a can, shipped to stores and still be sold at a profit for 67 cents. Some 'dines on a bowl of rice, maybe with a little steamed broccoli on the side and that's such an awesome meal for barely a dollar in total.
