I am very sorry, Patty. In Spain, where I live, fresh fish is much,
much cheaper than canned fish. Some fish like sardines or anchovies
are as cheap as $1 per pound when they are in season. We don't get
much canned fish, and it comes in little cans. We only use it for
sandwiches or similar, it would be too expensive to cook with that.

I am sorry to hear about your helth and income problems and apologise
for my ignorance.
