If you're a canned fish lover, you've definitely eaten canned eggplant sardines. A small tin can is stuffed with soft, tender, full-bodied sardines. Anyway, with such a canned sardine, I can eat a big bowl of rice. Canned sardines are not only delicious, but also very nutritious, with high protein and calcium content, and are recommended foods for nutritionists.

But, did you know why all the sardines on the market are canned and we never buy fresh sardines?
This is actually determined by multiple factors, first of all, the soft and delicate taste and fragrant taste of sardines are because they are rich in fat and protein, which determines that this fish is very easy to spoil, even if it is frozen at low temperature, they will quickly spoil during transportation.
How quickly fish decay, presumably anyone who has been to the fish market will understand it. So for sardines, which are extremely perishable fish, the cost of transporting them as fresh is simply too high. Therefore, canning it in the vicinity of the fishing ground not only preserves the wonderful taste of the sardines to the greatest extent, but also saves the cost of transportation.
In addition, you may also find that sardines have very fine small spines, although the sardine spines in the can have been softened in the early processing, but they are still quite present when eating, if it is a fresh sardine, according to the density of the intermuscular spines, the energy you consume to eat a fish may have long exceeded the energy you get from eating the fish.
If you don't have a concept of how troublesome the intermuscular spines are, you can think about how it feels to eat carp. Carp is one of the fish we often eat with denser spines, and the trouble of eating fresh sardines is at least four times more troublesome than eating carp.
In addition, sardines have another property that causes them to not be transported fresh – they are too easy to die. Even on the way back to the dock from the sea, sardines will die in large numbers due to lack of oxygen and other reasons, so fishermen who catch sardines often add a natural enemy fish to the tank where the sardines are stored, so that the sardines will continue to swim, thus reducing the possibility of death.
So, ah, sardines are easy to die and easy to break, or don't think about eating fresh sardines, soft and tender canned sardines It is not fragrant?
