Sardines in cans, 1921

from Bulletin of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, No. 908, 1921

” The packing of sardines differs from that of most food products put up in cans, in that it is necessary to arrange the small fish carefully to insure an attractive looking finished product. No other foodstuff requires the same skill or technique in the matter of being placed in their containers.”(page 58)

1876 Canned sardines went on sale in the U.S. for the first time. They were packed in oil. (Some sources say 1873).

“Life is like a box of sardines and we are all looking for the key.”

-Alan Bennett, English playwright
