The best sardine available
My preferred sardine. Plump, moist and a part of my eating for 5 years. No need to add dressing to my salad when Vela lemon olive oil is added. Food52 knows quality and this product is unsurpassed.
Simply the best sardine available
I've been ordering these sardines for 5 years. Delicious, nutritious and the best addition to my daily salads. Your price is unbeatable so I order a few dozen at a time. Ne need to add dressing to my salad since the olive oil is fabulous.
