1. Bumblebee coho salmon: 9/10, flaky moist, great flavor, a really pretty filet instead of mushy salmon. I could have eaten the whole tin alone. I made it into a salmon salad and ate it on toast. Would be 10/10 if there was just a little more salmon. Enjoyed it a lot more than the Cole's salmon I tried previously and it was half the price.
  2. King Oscar kipper snacks 2/10. I really didn't like these. They were dry, the texture was "hairy" almost, very unpleasant. No smoke flavor at all. I ate them alongside potato soup, which might have been part of the issue but I let my cat finish this tin.
  3. Crown Prince kipper snacks: 8.5/10 very tasty and plenty in the serving. I topped them with Cajun and lemon juice and ate them with chips and sharp cheddar. Yum. My only complaint is this tin had a lot of bones in it, which is just a personal preference and I know this wouldn't bother a lot of people.
  4. Reese smoked oysters 9/10. These were great right out of the tin but I cooked them into "poor man's oysters Rockefeller", a recipe I saw on Tiktok and that really made them phenomenal. I have a can of Chicken of the Sea smoked oysters that I hope are this good.

I know these are basic but hoped they could encourage someone to take the plunge into canned fish! I'm sure glad I did!

    Great review! I love doing the oyster jam in the skillet! Quick friendly note, caution with giving kitty too much of the leftover canned stuff, the sodium can make them sick. That said, as a guy who worked at a vet clinic, cats get into way worse things. Cheers!

    Brunswick makes a better kipper snack to me. But I want to try the Crown Prince ones now.

    I’m a little hesitant on “smoke flavored.” I’d rather shell out a few more dollars for the real stuff.

    Polar kipper snacks are nice and Smokey, check them out if you can find them. Thanks for the salmon review

    Loved reading this! My absolute favorite kipper snack is the bar harbor ones. they might be a bit pricier but the tin is larger too. Very smoke-forward.

    Thanks man! I’ll try that salmon if I find it. I love smoked oysters.
