Anyone else love canned seafood?

[nebraskaheat]

Smoked Oysters, baby clams, Sardines, herring etc.etc?


Seems like I'm the only person I know who eats the stuff and over the years the selection has gone way down at the grocery stores, so it must be less and less popular..

I love them.. Put some on a cracker with a shot of tobassco, yum. Sodium content is a little high, but for a decent little protein snack, can't beat it imo..

Anyone agree?


P.S. I see they have some much more "fancy" and expensive versions online, anyone knw of any they would reccomend?

Oh yeah, I love them all, except for the smoked oysters.

Smoked oysters are my fave on whole wheat crackers but they are a sort of forbidden pleasure, given both the cholesterol and sodium.

When I started training years back I practically lived on canned tuna and salmon. Then I discovered sardines and smoked oysters. They're all good.

These days, I don't eat much fish, but I still enjoy the taste of smoked oysters from time to time as well as sardines.

I like to make salmon patties with the canned salmon and fry them up.

only seafood I can eat is canned tuna and salmon

Smoked oysters with nice cheeses and crackers at Christmas is a must.

I am told that canned crabmeat makes great crabcakes.

White tuna in water is our preference for tuna salad. We like lots of fresh veggies in there - red peppers, spring onions, pickles, cucumbers, julienned carrots and julienned broccoli too, with olive oil mayo and that is a perfect lunch!

I'm a bit fussy about salmon. Actually, I'm spoiled. My mom always made the best salmon salad using canned salmon and she cleaned it so thoroughly that there were absolutely no bones. I think she'd end up with about half the can by the time she was through. So as much as I love salmon salad, I don't think I do as good of a job as my Mom. My son agrees - when he visits my parents, he'll eat salmon for breakfast, lunch and dinner. My mom says he'll grow fins. lol...

I love sardines and smoked clams & oysters the best

not canned fish but i love imitation crab meat in the pouch.

I'm not good at posting youtube links, but I remember watching a "No Reservations" episode a few years ago where Bourdain was sampling some canned seafood. They were an expensive little snack, running about $300 per can if I recall...

Mods were just so impressed they deemed it needing to be larger?

No, the radioactive scare is still big over here.

I'm a lacto-ovo vegetarian for the most part, so eating any kind of meat (chicken, pork, beef, people--just kidding!) is pretty rare--no pun intended--for me.

[Korr]

Sardines and herring are my favorites.

Never tried smoked oysters and clams. After reading all the posts, I want to try some! I do like sardines and tuna

[Joog]

Hmmm, only tuna or salmon for me (1-2 tins a day everyday)

Oysters.....don't like the tinned ones but kilpatrick..................drool
Herring is a bit too oily and (ummmm) fishy
I tried tin sardines recently but had to add fetta stuffed peppers to the crackers....not a fan

[dbx]

The only thing I like out of a can is beer. But even then, I prefer bottles.

I recently started eating sardines every once in a while. I never had them before this year but they're pretty good when I'm in the mood for them and have about 15g of protein I believe. And of course tuna. That's it for me though I'm allergic to clams and other shellfish.

I usually down a tin of sardines (in water) with some Sriracha sauce on top, post workout. Love smoked oysters and just discovered smoke clams...BIG fan.

I like most seafood. I got turned onto canned fish when my grandmother stayed with us for a few years. Kippers, sardines, those were good. But it gives me terminal-flatuence, not bad for me, just anyone else within a 30' radius. I'm not big on raw oysters, but will have to try the smoked ones. I use canned clams all the time when I make up a quick clam sauce with pasta.

My husband adores canned sardines, especially if they are the spicy mustard kind. Ick. The stink is so bad. I hate to sound like a nagging wife, but if I'm home he has to eat them outside. I gag for hours at the smell.

My wife feels much the same.. My canned seafood is usually consumed at work or after she goes to bed..

Some men sneak off to watch dirty videos late at night.. I'm sneaking into the cupboard cracking open a can of sardines..

I'm likely as equally excited as those other men too.. I have issues.

My wife used to be like this too. Now that we are separated I still endure this at work where the women hate the 'fishy' smell, even if it's tinned mackerel.

Because of this thread I bought and ate smoked oysters just now, so good. My Dad used to eat them all the time when I was a kid on saltine crackers. I had mine straight up with a toothpick.

[trymarine]

Sardines or pilchards in tomato sauce +baked beans on buttered toast....comfort food.
