This is about half
It was very good
Soft smooth buttery texture, sweet bbq like flavor.
Almost like bbq chicken mixed with pulled pork.

I plan to grab some more when i am back in that area, i liked this.

Fish in a can not so special

We have mackerel, tuna, salmon, anchovies, sardines, mussels,clams, shrimp in a can that are pretty normal.

Eel, Squid, octopus, in a can not so normal/common

"Pulpo ( octopus) y calamares en su tinta(squid in ink)".... those are tasty but very rare to find here in the US. I get it from the "care packages" from my folks in Puerto Rico. We get them mostly from Spain.
