tombeej Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Avo and tin of sardines for lunch including the oil from the tin of sards.... Yoh.... Thats filling.... Puts lead in your pencil... All the best. Those sardines have been drowned in unhealthy vegetable oil. Which is why I don't touch them. I'd rather buy my sards fresh from the fishmonger and cook them up in ghee or butter. Much healthier and much more tasty .

So it has to be tinned sardines or no sardines.

tombeej Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 If you don't have a local Checkers with a fresh/frozen seafood section, then regular pilchards in tomato sauce is a much better choice. The vegetable oil used in tinned sardines is almost always cheap bulk-grade canola, sunflower or soya oil. O6 PUFAs - no thanks. And to make things even worse, that stuff is normally hydrogenated (carcinogenic trans fats) to maximise shelf life. Nasty.

There is a range of sardines available at PnP which is packed with olive oil. Not cheap at R32.00 a tin. Brand is King Oscar - they have a variety of flavor and the olive oil ones seem to get put on the bottom shelf, so you have to hunt a bit for them. Agree that corn based oils are not for me. davetapson 1

tombeej Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Sardines in Olive Oil .... so you know what to look for Ok that answers a question I was about to ask you: whether it states specifically that the olive oil used is the cheap commercial refined crap (just as bad as any other bad vegetable oil), or if it is in fact extra virgin. To see that it is extra virgin olive oil, that's great, and something I'll look out for now.
