It’ll slide much easier into the biohazard waste bag for incineration

Actually, I’d probably eat it, but the *smell*

On edit: have you ever gotten very large sardines with fully-developed roe sacs? Put those in an omelette and you’ll be eating eggs from two species. Personally, I’ll take a pass .

... They offered the open face sardine sandwich at the Men's Grill and the 19th Hole at the Portage Country Club. At $8.00 a pop in the mid 70s, it was almost two hours wages for me. Did not get very many, but man were they good. Fifty years later and I still can taste them. Brushing my teeth and mouth wash hasn't worked. I'm going to make one soon, we'll see if I've still got a wife after I bliss out.

all the canned sardines I've had had the guts removed. Backbones still in for that extra calcium crunch, though.

I can occasionally find fresh sardines in stores around here. They should be cooked outdoors - otherwise, you'll be smelling them for weeks. And I like sardines!

Monterey, which is about 90 minutes away on the coast, used to have a gigantic sardine fishing industry until the schools were exhausted in the 1940s (a lot of them were used as fertilizer). The fish are making a modest comeback, but they're still hard to find fresh.
