are there bones in these sardines?

Yes, but they're mostly dissolved by the cooking process. No crunch at all, where the bones used to be is visible but that is all.
1017496
Yes, they are entire sardines. The bones are small and the fish are intended to be eaten whole.

Generally speaking, each tin will contain 3. I've had tins that contained 2 large sardines and some that contained 4.

It is boneless and skinless. I eat everything in the can. It's great on crackers. (NOTE: In an earlier version of this answer I said "It is boneless, but not skinless." However, I was thinking of Cole's sardines, which are also excellent. The mackerel is, in fact, skinless. Sorry for the confusion.)

Yes, they are raw. You don't need to cook them, they are great eaten raw. They are at their best eaten raw after overnight soaking in water.

The "sardine cutlets" should have whole fish in them surrounded by some jelly/mush. Some of the other "pate" varieties are all mush.

They are truly delicious! I disliked sardines my whole life until I tried the Wild Planet brand. They are so fresh, light, moist and never overly "fishy". They are sustainabley caught and filled with omegas, calcium and potassium. This is the only brand I trust.

This is in water, has skin, has bones, and cost me $14 for 12 cans. Taste is good. I like sardines in either oil or water, so your preference should decide here.

Good question this as the label on the bottle says anchovy sardine and mackerel and these fishes are very high in EPA and DHA.

The sardines are wide...and 3 or 4 to a can. They are not the small layered sardines as are in the flatter cans.

I don't like the double layer, whose sardines are too large. I prefer the "cross-pack" sardines in the gold-background package, which are very small and very good! The red package ("double layer") I try to avoid. The "Tiny Tots" you mention sound intriguing; I've never had them.

These are two layer. I have had the "Tiny Tots" and they are identical to these both in size (14-22 per can) and taste. In fact if you read the labels they are exactly the same size with the same ingredients so I'm not sure what the deal is with the "Tiny Tots" label. The best sardines in my opinion are the King Oscar "Cross Pack" which are smaller size with 24-34 fish per can.

I don't see what knd of makerel. It does say - Skinless, boneless fillets of mackerels are harvested from the cold waters of the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Morocco. Whhatever they are - they are very good (not as gross as the sardines my husband ears). :-)

No bones or skin. I would still check for stray pin bones before serving/eating. Very high quality product.

"No added salt" is the most accurate answer. The ingredients listed are just sardines and water, and that is one reason I prefer this brand. However, to me there is a mild saltiness in the taste of the sardines and the broth which is often part of the flavor of any seafood. The amount of sodium per can according to the label is 45 mg, or 2% of DV.

I'd check on the Crown Prince website and ask their customer service. They answer quickly. I have their Mediterranean sardines and they are clearly market BPA free.
