How come sardines have extras like calcium? Are they fortified with something?
We don’t put much of anything into our sardines except some natural smoke flavour from good oak for our Small Petits sardines. But they have a number of nutrition extras that you don’t usually find in high-protein foods. The reason is simple. Our little sardines are so delicate that even the bones are soft. You eat almost the whole creature and never notice. Actually, you could do the same thing with, say, a cow — and get the nutrition from bone, liver and the rest. But it would take very strong teeth and a lot more time.
