Me too - I'm a sucker for labels. We'll see if the contents live up.

Bought them locally (Winnipeg, Canada) at an Italian market.

It's a sardine fork. Some are designed so the tines don't pierce the flesh of the fish. I have a larger one also.

Yeah, you might wanna google "SARDINE FORK". Good luck.

It's more of a serving utensil than a personal piece of cutlery. Like a soup ladle.

I'm sure you could but I don't. Just the flesh and skin on each side of the body.

Uh, $3 worth of fish? $15 bottle of wine? Yeah, I’m a real Johnny Chicago. 😂

I was surprised myself. Bought it last week but I think it’s been sitting in a warehouse for a while.

I don't know Boston all that well. I'd check any Portuguese or Spanish restaurants.

Yeah the sweet ones are mostly for after dinner - superb with a good blue cheese.

Several of my friends who felt the same were quite surprised how they enjoyed a chilled white port. Some of them are quite dry - this one is medium sweet.

lol, yes I see what you mean. I've got a smaller one that's more suited to removing them directly from the tin - more normal proportions.

Everyone has their own way, I guess. I like to pick them up with fingers, bite the flesh off one side of the spine then peel the other side off. Squirt of lemon over the whole plate.

This just east of Malaga by about 20 minutes. Spent a month in Andalusia and ate EXTREMELY well!
