From the manufacturer
We are the original sustainable canned seafood company.
The future of our oceans is at stake, which is why since 2004, we’ve been using our canned products, our practices, and most importantly, our passion, to inspire lasting change.
Sustainability tastes delicious.
Together, positive change is possible. The more consumers choose to eat sustainable seafood, the more our industry will listen and practice selective harvesting. It’s all about making certain that our children and our grandchildren can experience our oceans and the gifts they give. Therefore, we must demand more from the fishing industry—while asking even more of ourselves and each other.
Why Sardines?

Eating Lower on the Food ChainOur oceans embody a myriad of amazing species. As the original sustainable seafood company, we hope to positively impact wild fisheries by educating consumers about the importance of eating lower on the food chain. |
An Abundant SpeciesSpecies like sardines, mackerel and anchovies are simply more abundant. When you choose to eat smaller and more plentiful fish, you reinvigorate our oceans by consuming what they naturally supply. Along with tuna, be sure to add in these surprising superfoods to your diet for a healthy dose of EPA and DHA Omega‑3s, proteins and amino acids. |
Nutritional PowerhouseSardines are nutritional powerhouses that offer a delicious mild flavor and so much more. Our traditional sardines with skin and bones are meaty and scale-free, and our skinless and boneless sardines are hand-filleted with great attention to detail. |

1) Tastes good!
I am not exaggerating when I say that Wild Planet sardines tastes way better than other brands that I have tried so far. I am a sardine fan, and I have tried a lot of other brands. Wild Planet sardines are very firm and meaty, slightly smoky, juicy and delicious. The sardines are very well cleaned and scale free.
2) Good for your general health.
a) No BPA( Bisphenol A) used as lining inside the cans.
Recently there has been lot of concerns about BPA leeching into food that many companies have switched to BPA free plastics and BPA free cans. Wild Planet is one of them. For concerns about the effects of BPA,see an article on this link. http://www.webmd.com/children/environmental-exposure-head2toe/bpa
b) This is a nutritionally dense food.
I would go as far as considering sardines as a "superfood". These are some numbers to give you an idea of how nutritious a can of Wild Planet sardines is. Please note that all these values are PER CAN because I usually eat a whole can(4.375oz) at a time. One serving size is listed on the can as 2 oz/serving, totaling about 2.5 servings/ can. In all seriousness, I don't know of anyone that would really open a can of sardines this size, measure out 2 oz to eat, so here it goes.
-- Excellent source of protein -25g /can
-- Excellent source of Omega 3 that you can EAT instead of taking pills. Each can contains 313mg EPA Omega 3 and 688mg DHA Omega 3. This is comparable to 2 soft gels of Amazon's best-selling omega 3 nutritional supplements: Nordic Naturals - Ultimate Omega, 1000 mg, 180 softgels But why take it in pill form when you can eat as part of one of your meals with all the added extra nutrients right?
-- Excellent source of Calcium - over 50 % Daily Value per can.( compare that to a serving of 8oz of 2% milk which on average has about 30% Calcium in it)
-- Excellent source of Vitamin B12 (over 100% DV), and Vitamin D(over 100%DV).
-- Good source of Iron (over 25%DV)and Selenium (over 50%DV) and
-- Also, as a bonus, contains Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a nutrient found in the body cells and believed to have an antioxidant and immune system boosting properties.
3) Good for the Ocean
I have been trying to be more responsible with my food choices. I try to eat seasonal, local and organic whenever possible. And as far as seafood, although a little bit more expensive, I try to get them "wild caught" whenever I can. However, recently I discovered that it is not enough for something to be "wild caught". Two other factors are also important.
--HOW THEY ARE CAUGHT.
Some of the things I have learned are indeed eye opening, and really help me be more aware and environmentally responsible as a consumer on what and where to purchase my seafood products if I really care about protecting the oceans. Wild Planet uses "free school" purse seine method which means NO FADs (Fish Aggregating Devices) are used. Please see this video about FAD and why they are devastating for the ocean in destroying diversity of species.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVbp7PijR6Y
--WHERE THEY ARE CAUGHT
This second factor is just as important because because in certain areas, combined with unsustainable methods of fishing such as one described above, there are major concerns of overfishing to the brink of certain species of fish becoming extinct in that particular area. According SeafoodWatch, Pacific sardines are rated "Best Choice" compared to Atlantic or Mediterranean sardines because there's little bycatch and low habitat impacts.
http://www.seafoodwatch.org/seafood-recommendations/groups/sardine?q=Sardine
Wild Planet is in compliance with the green standards of Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch, Blue Ocean Institute, Ocean Wise, Sea Choice and Fishwise. Greenpeace has also evaluated Wild Planet tuna products and has rated them as a top brand for sustainable sourcing policies. - See more at: http://www.wildplanetfoods.com/thewild-way/on-the-boat/#sthash.0pWGQHzI.dpuf
To wrap up, I love these sardines by Wild Planet. The fact that the company is very environmentally conscientious makes me love the product even more. I am currently on my second case ordered through Amazon's convenient sub and save. Compared to buying at grocery stores (if they even carry them), the price on Amazon is very good. The ones I saw at a Whole Food Market in my town was priced at $3.29/ can. So, tastes good, good for you, good for the ocean and not to mention good price here, what more could you ask for?
I'm doing the Dr.Boz three day Sardine fast. Today is my last day. Tastes great, high quality. You get twelve in the box, so it's a great deal. I enjoy them heated in the microwave and mustard.

Packaging and Sustainability:
One of the first things that caught my attention was the well-designed packaging. The cans were securely sealed, preventing any leakage or damage during transit. What truly sets Wild Planet apart from other brands is their commitment to sustainable fishing practices. These sardines are sustainably caught, ensuring the preservation of marine ecosystems and minimizing the impact on the environment. This dedication to responsible sourcing adds immense value to the product.
Quality and Freshness:
Upon opening a can, I was met with a pleasant aroma of fresh sardines. The quality of the fish was evident as I examined the firm texture and vibrant appearance. The sardines were lightly smoked, enhancing their flavor without overpowering the natural taste. I appreciated how Wild Planet maintains the integrity of the sardines by using extra virgin olive oil, which not only adds a subtle richness but also complements the overall taste.
Taste and Texture:
Wild Planet sardines are truly a treat for the palate. The combination of the mild smokiness and the delicate flavor of the fish creates a harmonious blend that is both enjoyable and satisfying. The olive oil enhances the taste without being overly greasy. The texture of the sardines is firm and succulent, providing a delightful mouthfeel with every bite. Whether enjoyed on their own or incorporated into various recipes, these sardines offer versatility and an authentic seafood experience.
Health Benefits and Dietary Considerations:
Apart from their delectable taste, Wild Planet sardines also offer numerous health benefits. They are a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, which promote heart health, reduce inflammation, and support brain function. As someone following a keto and paleo lifestyle, I was pleased to find that these sardines align perfectly with my dietary needs. They are gluten-free and non-GMO, making them suitable for individuals with specific dietary restrictions.
Versatility in Recipes:
While savoring these sardines straight out of the can is a delight in itself, their versatility shines through in a variety of recipes. I experimented with using them in salads, pasta dishes, and even sandwiches. The sardines added a unique depth of flavor and a nutritional boost to each preparation. Their compact size and easy-to-use packaging make them a convenient option for quick meals or snacks.
Value for Money:
Considering the high quality of the sardines, the sustainable fishing practices, and the nutritional value they provide, I find Wild Planet's product to be worth every penny. The pack of six 4.4-ounce cans ensures an ample supply that can last for multiple meals, making it a cost-effective choice in the long run. Additionally, the extended shelf life of these canned sardines allows for easy storage and reduces food waste.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Wild Planet Wild Sardines in Extra Virgin Olive Oil to seafood enthusiasts and health-conscious individuals alike. From the moment I opened the can to the last bite, the experience was delightful. The sustainable sourcing, quality, taste, and health benefits make these sardines stand out from the competition. Whether you enjoy them as a quick snack or incorporate them into your favorite recipes, these sardines are sure to satisfy both your palate and your conscience.
