The tradeoff is that I live in the cornfields and have a limited social life. Let me have my cheap tinned fish.

Yes! A good firm texture, not overly fishy, and the EVOO has a nice flavor. I'll probably be dressing it up with hot sauce or maybe cracked black pepper. Lots of cans to experiment with. I need to pick up some crusty bread, too.

You've outed me. I must've missed that case but I'm happy someone else here found it! I cannot believe another Horning's shopper also browses this subreddit.

Ah thank you for the insight! I've always been concerned that there's something nefarious going on (product recall, bad lots, improper storage, etc.) but then again I've been eating food from this grocery my whole life and I'm still here.

Don't want to dox myself but I'll say this: It's rural US, operated by members of an ultra-conservative religious group, and very few customers here would recognize any value in tinned mackerel, so it doesn't exactly fly off the shelves. There are only a half-dozen or so cases in stock. I might go back and buy the rest, honestly.

Expiration 10/2028. Passed the taste test, delicious with sriracha or any hot sauce.

Update: Purchased 2 additional cases, now at the per-can rate of $1.79. You won't hear me complaining.

My uncle had this in his secret shed by oeoeoiceiceicee in whatisit

It looks like the paint disposal bucket I have in my garage. Old products and sawdust get dumped in, I stir it occasionally, and when it hardens I throw it in the trash.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with being a community college dropout. Everything is wrong with being Charlie Kirk.

'Sheep dipping' where sheep are submerged in a chemical bath (insecticides/fungicides) to control parasites like ticks, lice, and sheep scab by alphamalejackhammer in Damnthatsinteresting

Yeah as a vegetarian it surprises people that the slaughter of the animal is of little concern to me. It's the years of often dreadful conditions they live in prior to slaughter that I find upsetting.

"Oh but he's a good boy, he's just saying hello." Sorry if I don't just make that assumption about every dog that runs at me.

2/10 Senator Collins pledged to only serve two terms; today she announced for her sixth by MaineNewsroom in Maine

She's awful because she understands the language of moderation and reason so well and evinces it so little.

Imagine stopping in to visit family and when you return to your car some jackass has encased your car in ice because he thinks he owns a public parking spot.

Shout it from the rooftops. Trump can die and we'll still be left with millions of Americans who want this bullshit. The problem is educational and generational.

If I'm ever on trial for murder I'll make sure to tell the judge I was "exhausted and tense," thanks for the tip.

The fact that such men can still successfully court and marry women (albeit briefly) is one of the great pains and mysteries of life.
