PRICE:

OVERALL:
A strong tomato aroma upon opening. Three scaled, meaty fish to the tin. An intense tomato taste on the first bite. Scales are slightly noticeable on the first bite. Salt is very detectable in this tin. Fish is just a tad on the dry side, with no fishy taste or after taste. I would eat again. 4 1/2 sardines




ALVA: IN HOT TOMATO SAUCE



APPEARANCE:


NUTRITION:

PRODUCT OF:
Portugal

INGREDIENTS:
Sardines, Vegetable Oil, Tomato, Chilli, Salt


PRICE:

OVERALL:
No aroma upon opening, three scaled plump fish to the tin. A soft textured fish. A sour, almost over riped tomato taste to the fish. ( the taste reminds me of the aroma of tomatoes sitting out on the back porch, at my grandmothers years ago)  Heat is hardly even present; not a spiny fish. As for eating again alone, I probably would not. In a dish..... Perhaps. 2 1/2 Sardines
