What brand were the sardines?

Unlikely. Ostrich is expensive. Chicken is cheap.

You can get real canned sardines here, but they're more expensive.

I get the King Oscar brand "Wild Caught Sardines in Extra Virgin
Olive Oil." Ingredients: Lightly smoked brisling sardines, extra
virgin olive oil, salt.

Yes, those really look like sardines.

I ordered a box of boneless sardines. The ingredient list calls them "pilchards."
Evidently, a sardine can be any number of species of small fish. Whatever you want to call them, they are quite edible. There's a single red pepper in the can
that's pretty hot. Lovely! My wife dumped the spicy oil on rice and ate it. Groovy, just absolutely groovy.

Yes, in US English "sardine" really means "small edible fish". Could
even be an actual sardine sometimes. Enjoy!

I've never heard of this game. From your last sentence, I really missed
