The quality is only matched by the cuteness of the packaging.

One of my favorite tinned fish is sardines.

They add an extra touch of umami to any dish.

Alas, my favorite brand is no longer being imported from Italy.

For years Ive been loyal to Fishwifes sardines, says Aubourg.

The filets in these cans are tender and packed with delicious ingredients.

They really upgrade all kinds of meals.

The quality is fantastic, says Clarke.

The brand stands out, thanks to their elevated flavors and premium feel.

Beyond the excellence of the can’s contents, Smart says, Im just a sucker for good design.

The packaging is also one of my favorite aspects of the brand.

Its fun and funky graphics turn a tin of preserved seafood into a gift-worthy purchase.

Theyre a great protein boost and so full of Omega 3s!

Aubourg, for her part, keeps it simple.

My personal favorite tool is on a toasted bagel with cream cheese, she says.

Guess I know what Im having for breakfast tomorrow!
