debate that divived /fit/

>>76639968 (OP)
you cant eat too much of the latter because mercury

salmon

>>76639968 (OP)
Sardines are delicious and healthy and cure depression while tuna is toxic waste that tastes like toxic waste
There’s a right and wrong answer

>>76640028
Grew up on great lakes, dad always fishing. If I never eat another bite of salmon it is too soon. Deens for the win, the Portugese ones. Tuna only if fresh.

>>76640043
fair enough friend, you are not supposed to eat the fish where i live, dioxins or some shit

>>76639968 (OP)
Sprats or Mackrel since I'm a Slavcel

I've read somewhere that UStanis consider Mackrel to be a trash fish. How come? It's very tasty and has a lot of good fat.

>>76639968 (OP)
There is no debate. Sardines have around 3 times as much O3 while also having 10 fucking times less mercury. Sardines also come with edible bones, which makes them one of the best sources of bioavailable calcium.

You only eat tuna if you're retarded and poor.

>>76639968 (OP)
Tuna is creamy and yummy with mayo. You can't put mayo on sardines, it's icky.

>>76640026
you cant eat too much of the first because purines

>>76640107
>mayo
You sound fat

>>76640091
Nutritionally I prefer sardines and mackerels. Practically I don't like either of them, I don't like any fishy seafood.

>>76639968 (OP)
/fit/ is a deenz board.
Ya drangus.

>>76640109
Non-issue if your water intake is adequate. You can piss out excess uric acid, you can't piss out mercury.

tuna mercury
sardines O3 vitamin D calcium the works
there is no debate, but maybe some mad hatters in denial

>>76639968 (OP)
Yeah, divided /fit/ into the mediocre (tuna) and the great (sardines)

the past 4 days the only meal I've had for lunch and dinner is stir chicken breast cooked with a can of sardines in tomato sauce that I crush. I mix it with rice and eat it with a shit ton of sauerkraut on the side. I love it

>>76640026
not with that attitude

>>76640220
looks like a big sloppa shit!

Mackerel fillets is the best, I hate the stringy texture of whole sardines.

>>76640439
Make sure it's atlantic, only one with O3 content in the same tier as sardines.

>>76639968 (OP)
Mackerel, literally tastes like fish candy

>>76640457
Yeah my goto is King Oscar's mackeral Mediterranean style. It's North Atlantic mackerel

>>76640220
this is the type of slop that looks like trash but is nutritious and tastes surprisingly good

>>76640220
looks like shit t b h famalam. I just eat them straight from the can with some salt, I basically treat them as a O3/vit D/fish collagen/calcium supplement.

>>76640509
I loved sardines by themselves even before I knew how healthy they were. The dish came about because I was looking for other ways to easily flavor stir fried chicken breast for low calories. I was using salsa then marinara then I remembered about sardines in tomato sauce. The reason I've been eating just this for the past few days is cause I'm testing out all the brands available to me

>>76640154
About as much mercury you can sweat out. Yes, you can piss out mercury as well as shit it out.

>>76640636
>Yes, you can piss out mercury as well as shit it out
Some, but heavy metals in general have the nasty property of making their way into tissues, at which point you are not getting them out without chelation therapy, and even that doesn't get rid of them entirely. Uric acid doesn't have that issue.

>>76640107
For me it's tuna and kewpie mayo with some sesame oil and onions sauce mixed in with rice

>>76639968 (OP)

>>76640107

Mix sardines, tartar sauce, onion, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Serve on sourdough bread.

>>76640071
>Mackrel to be a trash fish
very fishy flavor with a lotta pinbones. Things like salmon, seabass, and cod have one fat fillet that you can eat whole, also doesn't smell nearly as strong.
Burgers like their meat to be as removed from the animal as possible. That's why highly processed items like chicken nuggies are so popular

>>76640091
tuna comes in those little foil packs with nice flavor. Those are super convenient desu

like both but prefer deenz. didn't know tuna had more mercury I thought all seafood was risky for it or something. time to start eating deenz more regularly then

>>76642128
>didn't know tuna had more mercury I thought all seafood was risky for it or something
It depends on where the fish is in the food chain. Deenz are bottom feeders that mostly feed on plankton, including algae rich in O3, which is why they are O3 rich themselves and have little mercury.

Tuna on the other hand are higher in the food chain, often apex predators, feeding on other fish. These other fish have also fed on other fish, including their mercury, so each next link in the food chain will have progressively more mercury and diluted O3. This is also why apex predators like shark or swordfish are very high in it.

>>76639968 (OP)
Sardines because it's cheaper

>>76642118
>Burgers like their meat to be as removed from the animal as possible.
That's insane.

>>76640043
Se for me, except I cant get over salmon or trout.
Reminds me of my childhood where my mom cooks the salmon on the pan and have rice soak up the fat after.
Eating that crunchy salmon skin last is pure bliss. Goddamn, I'm hungry.
Anyway, as for >>76639968 (OP) I'd go with sardines, non filleted specifically, for that sweet collagen boost.

Mackerel, actually

>>76642128
something something bioamplification

>>76642118
>Burgers like their meat to be as removed from the animal as possible.
This statement is in complete opposition to the hunting culture of the USA

I prefer the taste of deenz, but all fish is good.

>>76643821
Calling bullshit on this because the "culture" is such an insignificant part of the population that it doesn't matter if hunters use all of the animal. The overwhelming majority of Americans don't even connect that the meat came from an animal, it's been so processed. Beyond some outgroup cultures (especially poor ones), there's not really a desire for people to use more of the animal than whatever processed meat is chosen for them. Hell, even when I go charter fishing the guys running the trip will fillet the fish on the boat so all you're going home with is something that could have gotten at the supermarket if you hadn't just killed it yourself.

>>76639968 (OP)

I eat both at least once per week. Between the two, I would strongly advocate for sardines. I love them. They are a perfect snack, and contain high protein and micros. They also have much fewer heavy metals than tuna, but be cautious. If you are eating bullshit-brand whey protein (or even worse, beef protein powder,) and also enjoy deenz recreationally, then you might be overdoing it on arsenic. There is about as much arsenic per serving of whey as there is in a can of deenz, and that is not counting whatever else you eat in a week. Make sure your shit is good, and manage your diet accordingly.

I am also a big fan of canned cod, mussels, mackerel, kippers, and other fish.

For me? It's the humble 'chove
