False advertising. Product of Thailand.
The picture says Product of Canada. The manufacturer has answered questions on Amazon saying they are from Canada or Poland. I bought 18 cans of Sardines in Soybean Oil here. The cans and the box they came in say Product of Thailand. I more or less trust people in developed countries to have clean, non-contaminating food factories. Poor, filthy, third world places, not so much. (inafarawayland(dot)com/2014/11/13/7-reasons-why-we-won-t-be-returning-to-thailand/)

NOT PRODUCT OF CANADA, AS PHOTOGRAPH WARRANTS
Photo is of Beach Cliff Sardines "product of Canada" which is one of the two Beach Cliff sardine in water products. The other product is "product of Poland" The Poland sardines (Baltic Sea) are sprats--different sardine species than the Canada sardines, which I believe are herring sardines. Anyhow, without committing to what each species is called--I ordered this based upon the product of Canada photo. The Product of Canada Beach Cliff Sardines are DIFFERENT texture and flavor--I find them far superior to these Poland Baltic Sea sardines. WILL NOT ORDER AGAIN unless you ship what you photograph.

Not Good Enough for this Sardine Lover Anymore
The sardines are good-sized and nutritious. I have noticed slight variations in quality from order to order, but they're always acceptable, if not quite good. They come from 3 different countries and you never know which you'll get: Canada, Poland, and Thailand. I think the ones from Canada are the best but the ones from Poland and Thailand are fine. I've had no problem with these sardines. The quality is good. I will continue to buy them.UPDATE: 11/19 The quality of these (at least on Amazon) has plummeted terribly. The last order was soft and mushy sardines in deeply dented cans. Inedible. I do not think I will continue buying them anymore. It was good while it lasted, though! I can no longer recommend this brand as the good buy it once was.RE-UPDATE 1/20: I decided to give this brand one more try. Sure enough they arrived. This time the cans were not all dented, but the sardines themselves were mushy and inedible - again. So I am done with this brand, which is unfortunate because they used to be decent quality - they were never the best, but they were a decent value. Now, they are inedible.

KETO TOP FOOD. Delicious and Healthy and Fresh Tasting
I just received my Beach Cliff Sardines in Soybean Oil the other day. Last night, I had a can.They taste delicious, and very fresh tasting.This is one of the perfect Top Foods for the KETO Diet.There are many makers of Sardines on the market. (Trust me, I have tried them all!), however; BEACH CLIFF is the best maker cuz it is fresh tasting, medium sized, and even has the bone and skin on it, which by the way the bone is very nutritious for its calcium content.Perfect to put in briefcase or pocketbook, to the office, to the school, and all around - Everywhere!Thank you, BEACH CLIFF, for your Delicious, Nutritious Sardines!PS I eat mine out of the can, however; you can also make a sandwich of it by draining the soybean oil, slicing up white onions and placing on Rye Bread.Yummy! :)

I generally like Beach Cliff sardines (but not this time)
I generally like Beach Cliff sardines, but be advised that when you buy 12-18 cans at a time, 1 or 2 of the cans are likely to have absorbed the brunt of whatever impact the heavy case experienced in shipping. In other words, crushed cans. This isn't exclusively a Beach Cliff problem either. I'm still assessing the general quality of the product, but the first (crushed) can was not good, and it could not be attributed to the damage to the can.Update 5/2/2020: I've purchased this direct from Amazon a few times over the years, and I have to say that the quality has dropped significantly. Bumble Bee is apparently resorting to the same tactics it used for Brunswick sardines - reduce the amount of fish and replace it with oil. Since the last time I bought it, they removed 1 to 1 1/2 fish. So on top of low quality fish, you now have less of it. Thus I'm reducing my rating to 2 stars. Will not buy again.

Flavor is ok but this brand will not disclaim BPA ...
BPA TOXINS ? Flavor is ok but this brand will not disclaim BPA content while others will. Not for me. The one star rating is for perceived consumer health risk.Believe me, if there were no BPA toxins added, this company would so proudly list it as all the others do. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has ended its authorization of the use of BPA in certain consumer packaging yet not all. Consumers beware for your own health, especially fish products packed in metal. I also purchased this item packed in mustard sauce. Both were great but this hot sauce pack was more tender and much better in my opinion. Another reviewer stated that sardines packed in other varieties/flavors are from different counties. My internet research found this sodium content is 420mg while another popular brand of 'royal' sardines packed in Louisiana Hot Sauce was only 190mg in sodium( which is 8% of daily recommended ).

Good for you and Yummy in your Tummy!
Has all the good stuff your body needs - from calcium to lots of vitamins. Nothing goes to waste - not even the tin can they came in! Drain the oil (Dogs and Cats love it) and mix with their dry food. Eat the Sardines... Wash tin cans and use them for your garden.... Slugs? Pour a little beer and set this in the garden. Sardines are so good, the School has called me TWICE ... as my granddaughter smuggled a can to school (two different times)... Apparently the School system has a policy on what you can bring in for lunch! :)

Great buy
This product is purchased for our large boned golden retriever. He has sardines once a day. Keeps his coat shiny. Helps with seasonal allergies and loaded with essentials he needs for a healthy diet. This product, which is very cost effective, is given along with his dry kibble and green beans.
