Get ready to celebrate National Sardines Day on Nov. 24! This day has been around since the late 1950s, when it was created by the British Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries to encourage people to eat more fish. Since then, sardines have become a popular snack worldwide due to their affordability and nutritional value. They can be eaten whole or in fillets, canned or fresh, grilled or fried - so there's something for everyone!
