MW PolarHerring, Kipper Snacks, 3.53-Ounce (Pack of 12), 90% Less Sodium, Ready to Eat Canned Fish, Good Source of Vitamin D, Naturally Wood Smoked, No Artificial Flavors or Ingredients

UPDATE: I bought these from Amazon for $24, not a bad price but at $40 not a good price since I consume lots of fish and price plays a big part. The fish is excellent, a full five star but the price makes it lower. I will buy again at $24 happily.::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::Polar is the distributor, the producer Rügen Fisch AG engages in processing, packaging, and supplying fish in Germany and internationally. The company offers canned fish including herring, mackerel, sardines, salmon, and many more. The company was founded in 1949 and is based in Sassnitz, Germany. Rugen is such a giant in herring business that they sell all their herrings through different wholesalers which all you need to do is look at the packaging with only different seller. Rügen Fisch deserves recognition for these cans since they are one of the only producers with MSC Certification, others are not so Rügen Fisch costs more than others.PRICE= 1.32, priced the lowest for all other kippers and it is the best tasting kipper, I always give away these cans as a giftSIZE= 3.530oz, majority of fish sold in cans vary in size between 3.5, 6.7, 7.2, 14, 17 ounceTASTE= Excellent smoke test, solid fish fillet not loose like fillet in tomato mix, the best tasting fish for the money only when sold at $1.32 a canMEAT= 92gMIX= Can separate fillets from the mixFish is my main diet. I try and consume only small fish from reputable sources. No fish from China or Asia, only from Canada, US, Germany and cold Baltic Seas except sardines from Morocco. I am not worried about the added ingredients of tomato sauce, oil, water, etc. since I never consume that part of the can where sodium lingers around plus all additives, I only consume the fish and dump the rest of the mix. I always prefer smoked since the producer has to sell the fish in one piece instead of pieces of fish floating around in juice regardless of the juice type. Fillets are usually sold in some type of tomato juice, water, oil, etc. I never get the chance to taste the real fish which I am after so experience has proven to me to trust smoked more than filet. Filet is always soft and hardly tastes like fish and for that reason always sells less than smoked as well.My goal is to get the most PROTEIN, CALCIUM and VITAMIN D and B-12 without sacrificing TASTE. No farm raised fish for me, only wild fish. I do not trust what is printed on the Nutrition Facts of the labeling in majority of times since after consuming thousands cans from hundreds of different producers, I have noticed a considerable manipulation of numbers in the NUTRITION FACTS when comparing all those cans time after time. It is obvious to me that there is much misrepresentation especially when it comes to protein on these cans. Canned fish are sold everywhere so prices vary much and Amazon does not have the best prices at all on all since there are many great stores that offer canned fish for unbelievable prices so shoppers need to do their search accordingly. Majority of the canned fish in a flat form shipped by Amazon were shipped to me somehow damaged, bent, cracked open regardless since those cans were not protected properly during shipping due to its weight so remember to have your camera ready.Smoked sprats from Baltic Seas are the smallest of all only one inch long and I get some 18 sprats in a 4oz cans. Here is the scoop for salmon, herrings and sardines. Sardines, sprat and Alaska salmons offer more calcium since those are complete fish with bones and skin unlike herrings. Herring fillets in mix offer less taste and more additive unlike the smoked herrings which are whole fish with great taste so the extra charge is for the sauce not the fish where I dump anyway so fillets have never made any sense to me. Salmon and sardines offer more protein per calorie but sardines have the most saturated fat per calorie not per serving size. For higher Omega 3 to 6 ratio and vitamin B, I consume Herrings but for high vitamin D and calcium I consume sardines, sprats and Alaskan salmon with bones, skin and all. Check out the comment section of my review for links to other fish with great taste. It is so stupid to purchase farm raised fish which pollute the environment with added carpet dye for coloring before selling it to consumers without any knowledge about farm raised fish practices.PINK SALMON IN WATER 14.75oz, PAMPA IN OIL 6oz, POLAR KIPPER IN WATER 3.53oz, BAR HARBOR HERRING FILLET IN OIL 6.7oz, POLAR HERRING FILLET IN OIL 6oz, APPEL KIPPER 6.7oz, LA SIRENA SARDINES 15ozSERVING SIZE63__170__46__55__170__56__100CALORIES90__270__81__100__276__140__140TOTAL FAT5__16__6__7__19__11__8SATURATED FAT1__4__1.3__3__3.6__2__4CHOLESTEROL40__90__23__15__61__25__37SODIUM270__750__110__250__400__280__163PROTEIN12__20__7__7__19__12__17CALCIUM10__15__2__4__8__2__23

Clean, healthy and delicious. I would order again, but Amazon literally can't keep it in stock lol. Sometimes the smoke is too light, or the firmness is a bit lacking, but the quality is usually very good. Will (eventually) buy again.

Best I've ever had, not too salty, not too fishy, just right

It has a bit too much salt but the taste is good

Long time consumer of kippered herring. Polar are plumper and better tasting and texture than other brands.

This was the lowest price I found. I like Polar kippers - good flavor.

Love these. Good price. Timely delivery.

I've been trying different brands of sardines and herring, these Polar Kipper Snacks are my favorite! Mild and tasty, without being overly smoky or salty.
