 Father-In-Law loved themNov 22, 2011
By T. Hartley
My father-in-law has been looking for Underwood sardines in tomato sauce since I married his daughter over 15 years ago. I've looked everywhere for them. He was always going on about how he wished he could find them. Consumer Reports indicated they were the highest rated sardines, yadda, yadda, yadda. You get the picture. So in desperation I took a chance and had a case of these sent to his house. Well long story short (believe it or not this is the short version, did I mention 15 years) he loves them. Haven't heard one da... uh one darn thing about Underwood sardines in tomato sauce since then. Worth EVERY penny.

Exactly what we wantedOct 08, 2010

These sardines are just like the ones I have enjoyed since childhood!! So pleased to find this product available through Amazon! So delicious! We prefer the larger sized sardines in this bigger can - individual preferences may vary :-)

Incredible Flavor and Price - Better than ExpectedFeb 27, 2012
By Edward P
These sardines are delicious - pushing the can-opener into the lid produces an invitingly sweet tomato aroma and upon removal of the lid you're confronted with six large well-packed headless boneless shiny-skinned sardines covered in a sea of red. I use water and rinse away all of the tomato-sauce in an effort to reduce the excessive sodium per serving but luckily enough of the sweet tomato essence is left behind to taste. Another review commented on the firmness of these sardines - they seem perfectly firm to me - they are not mushy and I'm not sure I would want to eat a harder sardine. Best of all using Amazon prime these sardines ship to my door for .11 cents/oz; my local average grocery stores (Safeway and Giant in Washington, DC) sell the name-brand average quality 4 oz sardine cans at .42+ cents/oz.
My favorite preparation: Open can, rinse sardines well with water, darkly toast thick slices of rye or multigrain bread, place sardines on top of toast, cover sardines with any remaining tomato sauce from the can, sprinkle some fresh lemon juice and cayenne pepper over it all and you've got a meal!

 They are good but what's up with the fish scales?Jun 23, 2011
By Y.T.
I can't eat these sardines because they are covered with scales. Today I actually had to clean up each sardine from those scales in order to be able to eat them.
I've read other superb reviews but nobody mentioned this issue... Does everybody else like to eat fish with the scales on it or is it the problem with a batch?! I don't know.

 Not as firm as LA SIRENA...Dec 16, 2010
By NYFB
Majority of the cans are lined in plastic and leach Bisphenol-A which has been linked to cancer, birth defects, miscarriages, obesity, and insulin resistance, which can lead to Type II diabetes. Refer to the Environmental Working Group report on BPA for more information.
I consume many different type of fish. All other brand sardines except LA SIRENA sardines are soft and mushy. La Siena and Crown Prince Sardines in Water, 4.25-Ounce are better. Crown Prince Brisling Sardines are smaller and taste just a bit better without the BPA. 15oz is three times the size of the small cans for much less money and a very good buy when I mix with other food ingredients since there is no way to buy any wild healthy fish like sardines which cost around $2.00 a pound from grocery stores. The junk farm raised fish with added carpet dye is sold for $10.00 a pound which is not healthy at all. I consume more Baltic sprats and herrings from Germany which are very tasty and delicious. Regardless of the type of fish, each can has some 1000~3000 MG of sodium which is not low so I drain the oil since vegetable oil is unhealthy, regardless of the type specified, and never trust when they claim olive oil either, as well as the tomato juice or water, to get ride of the unhealthy part of the can including the unhealthy salt and then consume the fish.
