The New York Times gives a tip of the hat to Rainbow Tomatoes Garden’s offerings of tinned fish — sardines and others.
Thanks to Stephen at pencil talk for pointing me to this catch.

Sardines and others

You've probably mentioned this before, but I just learned that sardines have as much calcium as milk.
(I'm looking for ways to reduce cholesterol, but giving up dairy would add a host of challenges, such as getting enough calcium. I'm not sure it's a good trade off. But adding sardines is a good deal all round.)
I recently discovered by accident that there is such a thing as "white anchovies," and that they bear no resemblance to the little brown strips you can put on pizza. In fact if you had served them to me without telling me what they were I would have said they were sardines. They were as good as sardines, or no worse.
Fresca, I’ve never mentioned the calcium, but they’re full of good stuff — also omega-3s. I’m guessing that the bones (which are often pretty unnoticeable) have something to do with the calcium.
Chris, I’ve never heard of white anchovies. You have made me curious. “As good as sardines, or no worse” sounds like a winning ad campaign. : )
