When Horse Jr. and his mom moved to the East Coast, they left me with several tins of sardines.
Horse Jr's mother is from Croatia. Do they eat sardines in Eastern Europe? I do not know what to do with sardines.
I opened a can and tried to share them with Kitty. She did not care for them. I smothered what remained in Marie's blue cheese dressing and ate them, as I did not want to waste them.
They were like anchovies on steroids. I did not get a tummy ache. My morning poop was normal the next day.
What would you do with cans of sardines?

I mostly eat sardines on toast but they're also pretty good with a salad of lettuce, tomato, cucumber &c. I don't think that a blue cheese dressing with them would be very nice. I sometimes like to add a little chili sauce or sriracha to jip them up a bit.
You can use the cans afterwards for holding small screws, &c when dismantling electrical appliances or for holding varnish or polish when refurbishing furniture or speakers. You can even make a small ukulele out of a sardine can.

I do not know if they eat sardines in Croatia, they surely do in Spain, France, Portugal, Italy and Greece.
I make a sardines paté, I drain from oil, remove the skin, add bread crumbs, butter, lemon juice and I serve on toasted bread. Mixed to a blue cheese dressing must taste horrible.

Well I would give them to Felix the Cat
She loves them
I opened a tin one night to see what they were like.
Felix climbed up and started eating them from the tin.
So she got them. I tried them
I didn't like them at all.

No. Don't like Blue Cheese.
Orange Cheddar is my cheese of choice

My mom loved sardines. Not me...I probably would just try to give them away or suck it up and throw them in the trash.

@Marilynda1225 Nor am I, actually. I DID have a fish taco the other day. But fish in general is the exception rather than the rule for me.

Donate them to Goodwill. My husband used to eat them; but I don't know if he still does.

@LindaOHio In general, I'm not a big fan of "fishy" either.

@amitkokiladitya Look up in the sky. Do you see a blue-green spaceship descending on you? It could be sardines.
