I just ran across some canned sardines in the Oriental section
at the local Wal-Mart Supercenter that lists the ingredients as:
sardines, water. The brand on the label is Season. You can
get them whole or boned and skinned. The ones that were
whole were like $1.25 a can, while the boned and skinned
were higher.

I totally agree with the that post, too. But I'll admit I bought a
couple of cans of the sardines. I got to thinking they might
be handy to have on hand in an emergency or on a trip
or something. Sardines aren't my favorite, so I'm certainly
not going to eat enough of them from a can to make much of
a difference, I don't think. And if I do need them, with the
fact that they aren't salted, at least I won't feel guilty about it.
