Sardine
Sardina pilchardus
Also known as: European pilchard, pilchard
Overview
Sardine (also known as pilchard) sustainability varies. Check the label for where they were caught. The Best Choice is Marine Stewardship Council certified from the southwest UK (Celtic seas and English Channel). Sardines from Northwest Africa are either Fish to Avoid or Need Improvements, and a large proportion of the sardines sold in supermarkets come from these areas, so it’s especially important to check the label. Sardines are widely sold in UK supermarkets in tins or jars and are sometimes available fresh from fishmongers or on restaurant menus.
