M&S Sardines vs Aldi Sardines (nutrition question)

ShroomCrusader · 2014-07-12 18:33:59

Hello, Does anyone know why there's 100% more Omega 3 in M&S Sardines than the Aldi Sardines?. Aldi Sardines 100g: - 1.6 grams of Omega 3 M&S Sardines 100g: - 2.3-6grams of Omega 3 (it was either 2.3grams or 2.6grams of Omega 3) Now, I'm not trying to fuss, but because they're all Sardines,fished from the sea, why is there…

Hello,

Does anyone know why there's 100% more Omega 3 in M&S Sardines than the Aldi Sardines?.

Aldi Sardines 100g:
- 1.6 grams of Omega 3

M&S Sardines 100g:
- 2.3-6grams of Omega 3 (it was either 2.3grams or 2.6grams of Omega 3)

Now, I'm not trying to fuss, but because they're all Sardines,fished from the sea, why is there such a difference of Omega 3 content in the brands?.

Any idea please ???

Thank You.

Could be the method of preserving/canning ? But more likely the method of testing !
Any noticeable difference in quality/texture, ? I've never had the M&S ones...

Could it be the effect of the oil used for canning? Are they both in the same type of oil?
