For those who enjoy ingesting health benefits in food form, rather than a pill form - this is a great product. So happens, I like the taste, and the "weirdness" of foods like this, so I really enjoy a dark bread dipped in the cod oil and with a chunk of the cod liver on it. I try to limit a little of how much I eat, by splitting the can's content into 3 or more portions (that includes the oil, as the piece of liver itself is not very big), and use this as a treat, or appetizer, on bread, egg, with egg salad, with dill and herbs and marinated/fermented cabbages, etc.
Although I did not purchase this for health benefits, but for craving the taste, my skin and hair began to show very positive effects, as the "glow" and "shine" and less dullness are pretty evident after a month+ of eating canned cod liver. I have some every other day, and alternate with canned mackerel or sardines, because yes, I am weird, and can eat sardines for breakfast. If you are less "weird" in your tastes, you may prefer the supplement, but I doubt the health effects are quite as pronounced.
I found that an open can lasts very well in an air-tight small tupperwear (glass or plastic), and does not stink up the fridge.
These are small cans, about a size of an individual travel kleenex tissue pack.
We do cod liver Wednesdays... we also do a twenty-four to thirty hour fast on Sundays... it's not as bad as it sounds. We eat an early dinner as we normally would on early Saturday evening... skip our first meal on Sunday, and eat an amazing fish-based dinner (usually wild caught, skin-on and bone-in sardines; wild fish eggs; and whole cod livers (as opposed to processed cod liver oil)) with the entire tribe on Sunday. Once a quarter, we do a 5-day water only fast (adults only).
The taste is delicious too!
I have been on Keto for years and need quick good sources of fat that I can carry with me. I was afraid to try it because I hate sardines BUT this is very close to canned tuna. I love it. I’ll be ordering more!! Great on a salad ....
I've bought the round 190 gram cans for many years and thoroughly enjoyed them. However the 190 gram can is way too big to eat by myself. This 4.3oz tin is perfect for one meal for 1-2 people. The flavor is extremely mild and not fishy. If you've ever had foie gras this is very similar in texture and taste.
I just discovered this and couldn't stop eating it the first week! I had to re-order right away and I'm sure I shouldn't eat more than a can a day due to risking excess vitamin A, but I was addicted. Nothing bad happened. The following week I had a health screen test and my LDL was almost twice the recommended level. I kept the oil in the can but now I have so much I don't know what to do with it.

Description
Delicious. I love cod liver on toast with some lemon juice on it. This is my all time favorite lunch although you will have the breath of a kitty cat after you eat a can.
Since this is my first time eating cod liver, I didn't know what to expect. However, I was pleasantly surprised. The taste is salty/minerally and a little fishy, but pretty good. The texture may be off-putting to some people as it's very soft and like pate. I usually eat the liver over 2-3 days and just use a couple spoons of the oil in the morning as a natural "supplement." What I really like about it is that it doesn't taste rancid and doesn't upset my stomach like cod liver oil supplements have in the past. If you're looking for a great source of fat soluble vitamins and an incredible omega 3 content, then I would definitely try these out!
Great that they offer this. I did notice a positive difference in my body after eating it a few times over a couple of weeks. I have trouble absorbing vitamin A from other foods, and this seems more natural than supplements.
Nice and creamy Cod Liver pieces. They are fairly firm and very subtle and taste.
Just like childhood memories, my mother feeding me a fish oil with a chunk of salted black bread...
