When Sardine Workers Take a Lead in Anti-Capitalism Struggles…

I received 3 nice sardine cans from a Venezuelian fellow and green (or red) world activist.


Everyone knows that sardine workers in France have always been up in the first raw for social struggles… and elected the first communist mayor in the 100% catholic city of Douarnenez… (that was long ago). The same story seems to happen in Hugo Chavez' Venezuela where a sardine factory has been nationalized as a first national interest production and given to its workers for an exemplary ruling…
As you can see on the can label, politic is never far from sardines…


Even sardines are standing in the can, wearing the red tomato coat of their workers…
I heard Californian sardines were headind for a new recognition… beware of infiltrations…

Enjoy !

I am an American ex-Pat married to a lovely Venezolana and live/work in Venezuela and we eat a lot of sardines. My wife makes a killer sardine and rice soup that is one of my favorite dishes.

I avoid buying stuff from the government here. I don't buy into the "revolution". Its totally BS and somebody is always getting some big kickback from it...even from these sardines. The fishermen probably make expenses and little else. More than likely some red shirted jerk is a making a killing in the cannery, transportation, or somewhere else in the chain. Don't buy into this revolution. It is totally bogus.

Those sardines aren't "red," they're Bolivarian.

The significance is only to eat more kale – preferably of the Portuguese Couve Galega variety.

(eatmorekale.com is run by some dude in Vermont selling “Eat More Kale” t-shirts.)
