Unpopular opinion: sardines in tomato sauce is the goat

As the title says; tomato sauce is the best ! The sauce is lower cal and can easily bring simple ingredients into a dish! With rice? Island style sardines (nasi goreng) !! With pasta? Great simple pasta dish! On toast?! The easiest spread! On its own?! Amazing ginissang sardinas or even easier sardines stir fry! With potato? Great sardines fish cakes or any thing you fancy really… while I appreciate them when they are made with olive oil…. It’s not as versatile and I’m not that excited to use all the can in one go. I tend to save the oil for later.

• What do you think? If you think it’s not the case, how can I make their counterparts more versatile?
