one of the great ironies of modern life: a lot of the canned sardines you buy ARE from the west coast. but it's cheaper to ship them overseas for processing and then ship them back here for sale than it is to do the work here.
Also,sardines may exist in certain waters but if theyre not numerous enough then commercial fishing industries in those respective areas will not be commercially viable. Sardines being used as bait requires few sardines and no costs with processing.
it then gets frozen and shipped to Indonesia for processing.
actually, there is a huge sardine fishery out of central and southern california. with squid, it's probably the last of our great commercial fisheries. and they end up selling most of it for a few dollars a ton. it then gets frozen and shipped to Indonesia for processing.
What about the scandinavian sardines? King Oscar (norway IIRC) and the such?
it is because of this thread that I picked up some Norwegan smoked sardines on the way home from work.
