Unintended collection: **Canned seafood**

I recently got into sardines and other canned seafood and went on a bit of a buying spree without an associated eating spree. I just took a quick count and there are about 40 cans (& one jar of smoked sprats) in the box I keep them in. Non-sardine items include mackerel, oysters, anchovies, eel, octopus, cockles & herring.

If interested, lots more here:
