Banner ad - Sardine Diet?

I've seen that pop up from time to time...
I've no idea of the premise behind the diet but sardines are high in omega-3’s, contain virtually no mercury and have lots of calcium. They also contain iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, copper and manganese as well as a full complement of B vitamins
If you can stand the taste, they're a good for you food...
They're not bad if you mix them into a really spicy tomato sauce on pasta...

It was more of a joke lol. But i take fish oil and will occasionally have a sardine sandwich or put sardines on my pizza (which I make with wheat crust, tons of veggies and turkey pepperoni (which has like half the fat and half the calories of regular pepperoni).
I'll leave the wife comment out of this topic

Ahahahaha, that made me laugh!!
So they don't have the heads on them then? I thought they did. lol
They do when they are alive. When they are processed and cooked, the eyeballs and head are removed and sold to dogfood companies.

I guess by saying "you always see those pizza places putting them on" I really mean I've only seen it a couple times on tv. 
I've only seen that on cartoons ala Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
