I wish to extend Veterans Day wishes to all people who served America, especially the older veterans who served in World War II. This war to end all wars was a massive conflict, and I’m glad that I was not alive during that time. However, I’m very moved by the service of people who fought in that war. This blog post is dedicated to the World War II veterans who served America so well, and whose numbers are so frighteningly dwindling. On the other hand, maybe it’s better just to try to forget WWII.

Sardines on a Bagel
This is not the best photograph, but it captures the idea. (My flash did not fire.)
This is actually a tasty and healthy meal. This simple dish consists of a can of sardines applied to the top of a bagel. It’s quite simple to make. And it doesn’t cost a lot of money, especially if you buy cheap sardines, like me. Sardines are packaged in a variety of ways, and I prefer the ones that are smoked and are in oil. This is a tasty dish. And it is also healthy.
Sardines are high in omega-3 fatty acids, which are an important contributor to good health. They are especially good for the heart and circulation. This is something that everyone must pay attention to. Many kinds of fish, of course, are good as a source of omega-3 acids. However, the smaller fish can be preferred because they do not have the high mercury content that the larger fish that are higher in the food chain, such as tuna, have. So the choice of sardines is healthy and relatively low in mercury, and is my choice for a tasty dish on a bagel.
The bagel is also somewhat healthy, it being a multi-grain bagel.
So this is the ultimate fish and bread dish. I enjoyed the simple meal.
