> I like sardines too-- well, when I say "like" I mean I know they're good for me and I can usually choke em down, if they're the mustard sauce kind and they're on a cracker. A whole tin is a bit too much at one sitting. OK I guess I don't like sardines so much, but I still try to eat them now and then for the nutrition.

> I saw the Omega-3 eggs at the market-- anyone know about them? Are they worth it? I was thinking of buying them instead of my usual "cage free" eggs.I'd presume those eggs are similar to those available in Canada. Here's a link to the nutrition information: http://www.burnbraefarms.com/food_service/nutrition_info.html#omega
Each omega-3 egg contains more vitamin E, and about seven times the omega-3 content of a typical egg. Unfortunately, the various omega-3 fats are not quantified.
They're certainly better for you than regular eggs, but I hope you'll keep choking down some sardines, or some salmon, or some fish oil caps, etc. Very important for wellbeing.
