Kickstart Metabolism In 3 Days With Sardines

[@2late4me2care]

I grew up in the 60's when junk food was just becoming popular. My family raised our own animals for meat and always had a garden. We NEVER had sweets unless it was a birthday or Christmas celebration. Didn't have a cola until I was a teen. Needless to say my Mom and step dad raised a house full of healthy active children with excellent teeth. My Mom went through a round of depression and bought a huge box of sweetened cereal to make breakfast easier for her.. I will never forget my dad's reaction. He threw the box away and said, "You're going to give these kids diabetes and rotten teeth!" He stepped his game up and made sure we had plenty of quick and easy snacks and meals, all fresh from the garden and cases of sardines. I used to think my brothers and I were deprived and treated wrong for not being allowed to eat sugar and processed foods. Now I'm convinced I had the absolute best parents ever! I'm about to do the 72 hr sardine challenge in honor of my dad.

[@jb6712]

Your father was very smart. Throwing out that sugar bomb, which is all it was, probably saved your mother from worse depression. My own mother went through a short bout of depression back in the late 1960s and her doctor told her to eat more fish and vegetables---we had our own small garden, and she loved veggies---and that really did help her a lot. She never experienced depression again right to the day of her death 17 years ago.

I live in Mediterranean and we can cook fresh sardines. All my ancestors lived past 100. My grandmother used to work until she was 98. They ate mainly fish (usually sardines) and a little of EVERYTHING else. A little meat, eggs, cheese, bread, olive oil. And they had good relationship with their community.

I had a doctor a long time ago who said i had high blood pressure. I was already on a pill for it, rather than up my dosage, he asked me what I ate at work, I was working for state parks at the time and was very active. I told him generally what I ate, which included canned tuna some times. After hearing that he told me to try sardines, at least once a day. One month later he had me off my bp meds, and I even felt better in general. I try to eat at least 5 cans a week. I wish more people gave this a chance.

This may be the most important video health conscious people can watch. I've been eating sardines since 1962 but not for health reasons. My dad and I would carry them on fishing trips because there was no preparation involved and too much time and trouble to go back to shore and eat. I love em. Got a pantry full of them as I write this. I like all flavors too. Sardines and Herring. I lived on sardines, freshwater fish, beans, coffee and ice tea and never had a weight problem, always underweight but all muscle because I did hard physical labor most of my life. Poor person and could not afford snacks, carbs and sweets. I'm 69 now and since I've retired my weight and cholesterol has been rising because I just sit here and watch your videos. Lol! Also because all my snacks are within arms distance of my computer. Prosperity is killing me. Jesus fed fish to the multitudes. That's good enough proof for me.

[@jimlambrick4642]

I'm 76 year old man in Canada and have always eaten sardines regularly. Literally never get sick. And a couple of interesting unknown facts re sardines. The German army relied heavily on sardines ... called sprats in Europe... as a staple of their rations because of the high food value in a small easy to transport package/tin. And currently consumers may have noticed that sardines have not had the dramatic food price increase of other foods in the last year or so. That is because the large ocean fish... that lived on sardines... have been heavily overfished, especially by China, with the result sardine stocks have never been higher, hence the lower prices. So not only good for you but cheap.

[@healthinfotipss]

That's fascinating! It's amazing how regularly consuming sardines has contributed to your overall health and well-being. The historical use of sardines as a staple in the German army's rations due to their high nutritional value is impressive. Additionally, the current availability and affordability of sardines due to the overfishing of larger ocean fish, which preyed on sardines, is an interesting insight. Sardines truly offer both health benefits and cost-effectiveness. Thanks for sharing this valuable information!

Good information. I like the term "sprats" and that's what I am going to call them from now on. 😉

This is false, sprats are sprats (sprattus) and sardines are called Sardinen in german (Sardina pilchardus).

Since discovering your channel, I've made sardines my primary daily meal, and the results have been remarkable. I haven't tried the 72-hour fast yet, but my weight, mood, and mental alertness have already improved significantly. Surprisingly, my allergies seem to have disappeared. Living in Texas, I usually suffer this time of year unless I take antihistamines. I've had a worsening autoimmune disease and an increasing histamine response to food, leading to a runny nose, bloating, stomach discomfort, brain fog and weight gain, even with exercise and 18-6 intermittent fasting. However, since incorporating sardines into my diet, these issues have subsided, and I've lost 8 pounds in 1.5 weeks. Even when I cheat a day and indulge in high-carb meals, I don't experience bloating or histamine reactions, and I continue to lose weight. In my opinion, sardines are truly magical little gut healers and overall wellness developers. When you dig down and really unpack this, it's at the core of this phenome of radical morbid obesity we see here in the USA. Our food, were it comes from and how we grow, process and ship it to market is so radically different from how we did it prior to 1960. Hence, the Mediterranean populations living longer and healthier as they still primarily grow, eat, consume food "The old way".

Hi, does it matter if the sardines are in tomato sauce, brine or oil? Or which type of sardines?

[@iridescentsea3730]

@@ruthtrimmer3803 In my opinion, brisling sardines taste best and have the best mouth-feel, but they're more expensive as a result. If the can does not say "brisling sardines" then you can safely assume that they're the bigger kind of fish (like three huge headless sardines in the can rather than a dozen tiny sardines with heads and fins attached). The bigger sardines don't taste as good, but they taste a lot stronger, and their bones are also bigger so you'll feel them when chewing. Sardines in oil are also more expensive than sardines in water, mustard, tomato sauce, etc. Avoid soybean oil or any that just say "oil" without specifying the type, because soybean and seed oils carry traces of heavy metals and seem pretty unhealthy overall. Extra virgin olive oil is probably the best tasting, and will likely only be packed with high quality brisling sardines, making it the most expensive (like over two dollars a can). The choice is really yours to make. Either go the penny pinching route of big sardines in water, or the indulgent route of brisling sardines in EVOO.

MERCURY POISONED 🤢 SARDINES ARE JAM PACKED WITH THE DEADLY HEAVY METAL.

[@jeffrachelburkhalter3783]

My hope and prayer is that God will bless the following message to everyone who reads it. 🫱In the beginning God made the heaven and the earth and everything in them. God created a man in His image, after His likeness and named him Adam. The LORD God commanded the man saying, "Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die." God said that it was not good for the man to be alone, so He created a woman (Eve) from one of Adam's ribs, to be his helper. The serpent (Satan - See Revelation 12:9) was in the garden and he beguiled Adam's wife. She ate from the tree and gave to her husband and he ate of the fruit, disobeying God's commandment. That day they both died spiritually and eventually, physically. Because of the fall everyone is born spiritually dead and in bondage to sin. We must be given a spiritual resurrection (born again) before we can see the Kingdom of God. - You can read all about creation and the fall of man in greater detail from the book of Genesis. God is Holy, Holy, Holy, and perfectly righteous. He is the Just Judge and so He must and will punish everyone who dies in their sins. God is good, gracious and merciful, but we are not good. We have all broken God's Law (Sin is the transgression of God's Law), many, many times. God's written Word teaches us that in our unregenerate state our hearts are deceitful above all things and desperately wicked and that we are at enmity against God. While many go after false gods and make themselves idols, Scripture tells us that no-one seeks God. Scripture tells us that there is not a just man upon earth, that does good, and does not sin and that all our righteousneses are as filthy rags. Most people compare themselves to the most wicked men who have ever lived to justify themselves, but it is foolish to compare ourselves to others, because we will all stand in front of the same Judge at the last day, who knows everything about us, even our secret thoughts (those thoughts you don't want anyone to know about) and if He does not see Christ's righteousness when He looks at you, you will be found guilty for your sins and you will be cast into the lake of fire. The Lord Jesus Christ is God manifest in the flesh. He was born of a virgin and lived a perfectly sinless life that we do not. The Gospel is the Good News about what the Lord Jesus Christ did for His people. He suffered, bled, and died for our sins, drinking the cup of the Father's wrath in our place, and He rose from the grave on the third day for our justification. Except for those of us in Christ who are alive and remain when the Lord Jesus Christ returns, everyone is going to die, eventually. One day your soul will be required of you by your Creator. Today could be your last day on earth. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for Him shall He appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Hebrews 9:27-28 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust. Acts 24:15 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. Daniel 12:2 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Revelation 21:8 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Revelation 20:15 If you repent (Repentance is a change of mind that leads to a change of actions), and believe the Gospel, confessing with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believing from your heart that God has raised Him from dead, you will be saved. My hope and prayer is that you will repent and come to the Lord Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. "I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me... I Am the Bread of Life: he that cometh to Me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on Me shall never thirst... I Am the Door: by Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture... I Am the Resurrection, and the Life: he that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die. Believest thou this?.. I Am the Light of the world: he that followeth Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the Light of life... Ye must be born again... Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of Water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again... If ye believe not that I Am He, ye shall die in your sins... Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn Him to death, And shall deliver Him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify Him: and the third day He shall rise again... And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved. He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God... And this is the will of Him that sent Me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on Him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day... Repent ye, and believe the Gospel...I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish... I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I Am He, ye shall die in your sins...

I have to say, you have IMPRESSED me beyond belief. I did a 3 day sardine challenge, (with oil). The first day, I was HIT, I can't even say it any other way - I was HIT with so much energy, more than I ever felt my ENTIRE LIFE. It was unbelievable... but that's not all, I decided to incorporate them into my diet as well. I use avocado mayo and mix them in. Tastes like tuna salad to me. The jumpstart plus OMAD and keto together made my A1c go from 12 - yes freaking 12- blood glucose over 400 ! to 7.5 in.. ..get this.. 2 months ! what ? how ? A1c is supposed to show a 3 month stretch but in even LESS time it dropped. 2 months later and I test my blood glucose its 106. I went from DYING to HEALTHIER than I have been in quite some time in just 4 months. I suppose I should add that I dropped 45 pounds also, but it honestly feels like a SIDE EFFECT. ALL WITHOUT DRUGS. Now that I understand the importance of autophagy and reducing insulin and its resistance, I know what I need to do. I cannot thank you Dr Bosworth enough for giving me the perfect kick start plan, helping save my life, and everything else that you do ! Also: I would be happy to comment in the future to tell you my progress if anyone has any questions feel free !

[@imjoeimjoe]

@@Mellowdayzz Ok so keep in mind this is what I did, BUT I also was someone who KNEW that I had an overeating issue. I started out at 325 pounds. I was eating maybe twice a day, sometimes 3 times a day, very large meals, I mean EVERYTHING bad lots of fast food, "italian" restaurant food...chinese , corner store sandwiches, all complete with sodas, with snacks in between of bad carbs like pies or snack cakes little debbie type junk, and a milk of course to go with it. and I would eat 2 of them sandwiches when everyone else was eating just one. I had to be ingesting at least 1/3 more calories in general than the average person, finished my girlfriends, dinner... hope thats good enough to explain where I was...... So I started slowly. I cut out sugar and simple carbs first. continued to drink DIET soda to make up for it. THAT was STAGE 1. I did that for quite a while, it was very LOOSE you know, not too restrictive. Then for STAGE 2 I did my first fast. It was a full 3 day water fast. WITH electrolyte powder, FROM DR BERG website. Felt amazing. Then I did the "sardine challenge" which was just eat only sardines, as much as you want for 3 days. This is actually another type of fast that will lower insulin resistance and up your energy like nothing I have ever felt, it literally will kickstart your metabolism. I went straight to OMAD (one meal a day) STAGE 3 and I will eat either: 2 cans of sardines WITH OIL, and electrolyte powder. OR one half pound of my choice of ground meat, I switch between beef, pork, chicken, and use a simple sauce like a bit of tomato sauce or mustard or you know whatever to flavor it. Im not a cook so I do it simple, plus this keeps me motivated, and a green leafy vegetable like spinach or kale or whatever and then drench it in olive oil or prepare it as like a salad. then use apples cider vinegar and extra virgin olive oil, and I make sure its the best quality olive oil I can find and I use alot of it. I learned the hard way how important sodium - potassium ratio is and everything else. I drink to scoops of it in water. Now, depending on how much sodium was in my food...this is why I specifically chose Dr Bergs powder because its not as high in sodium...I can add salt as needed. When you stop eating junk, all that sodium your body was used to gets depleted. It has to be replaced and brought down slowly. Or you will end up in the ER with LOW blood pressure. That happened to me. SODIUM is the most important thing. when you fast OR do keto/IF, your sodium will be depleted. I think a lot of people run into this problem and fail I mean its that simple, going shopping takes like 5 minutes.

Week earlier , 8/23 had sardines at lunch. Did 30 sprints that morning. After lunch had hour nap. Did another 30 after nap. Then did 40 that night after regular dinner. So was a day of record day of 100 sprints. Thought of doing more but 100 was enough. Age 69, went to sleep at 12:30 am. on 8/24. Wide awake at 2:30 am. I wondered sardines? Hmmm. Yesterday , 30 sprints in morning , record 42 last nite. 100 yarders. Now 4 hours sleep , wide awake. Energy to burn it seems. Another 30 sprints in 3 hours. Like I told the wife, I don’t eat at Paula Deans, I eat at Sar Dines! We chuckled. Btw, I don’t have a MD., I don’t even know one. See a chiro once a month for adjustment.

I eat a lot of sardines. Once I found out they are low in mercury, as compared to other fish like Tuna, I have gone to town on eating these. It helps to be hungry when you open a can of sardines. I use all of the different kinds. Oil, water, and mustard are the kinds I eat. I eat pickled herring as well. I rarely eat tuna anymore, especially since I found out how high their mercury levels are. I eat sardine salad sandwiches. Season Brand sardines are the top brand of sardines in my opinion. They are a little more expensive, but still VERY reasonably priced. I take a tine of Season sardines, fork them to a bowel, add miracle whip, about 6-10 green olives, garlic powder, onion powder or any other kind of powered spice you like. Then I smash then very good, making sure to bust up the green olives into small pieces. This is BETTER than tuna salad in my opinion. I can tell a big difference when I eat a lot of sardines in a day. My knee replacement inflammation goes down. I have better functional performance out of my artificial knee when I eat sardines. Remember Season brand, a product of Morrocco. I eat the other cheaper brands as well. But if I want to make a sardine salad, Season is what I use. I eat flatbread with that salad. If I can not find crispbread, I eat Matzo's as well. I actually have come to really enjoy Matzo's Kosher bread.

I tried the sardine fast this year.

It was tough getting through the 2nd day, let me tell ya!😮 3rd day was the WORST of all, when I just wanted to stop all together! They tasted SO BAD😂 2nd day, I decided to pan fry them in butter, which helped. 3rd day, even butter didn't help, but I got through them. ONLY draw back I saw was the "need" to eat something else after the 72 hours. THAT means self control to NOT over eat things, such as carbs, fat, sugary stuff. This challenge is good ONLY IF you have self control AFTER the 72 hours and ONLY you can find the will to get past the 2nd day "crash".

[@carnivorecave]

I have loved eating Sardines 64 years of my life and finding the Carnivore Life has even turned back my age clock...

[@whitelotus_zero]

I read ”How to Sardine. Fast” and felt like I missed out on a life long secret everybody in the health circle knew about. Having said that, I now really want to Sardine immidiately 😂

[@healthinfotipss]

Haha, it's never too late to join the sardine party! Enjoy discovering the benefits and flavors of incorporating sardines into your diet. Happy sardining! 😄🐟

Right OmG give me sardines now please there also very yummy

[@htownandi6263]

I just found out about the sardine fast yesterday. On my way home from work I stopped and picked up everything I needed and did a trial run. Holy cow, I can't believe this is actually the first time I ate sardines and liked it.

[@devaapurna608]

​@@htownandi6263What did you add to them?😊

[@FromDream2RealityNow]

Just had my first sardines at 44 years old. Not too bad. Slimy texture, but good flavor. Was like eating slimy tuna. I could live with it.

[@lindapotter5051]

I've never eaten a sardine in my life. I buy them but cannot make myself open the can. The look, smell and slime (my husband eats them) is such a deterrent I cannot make myself do it and I want to so bad.

[@FromDream2RealityNow]

@@lindapotter5051 haha just gonna have to take the plunge! To me it resembles tuna quite a bit. If you can eat a can of tuna plain, then i would say mash the sardines up to the texture of tuna and maybe try it that way so it doesnt look like little fish. I sort of did that when i ate them, used my fork to break them up to a consistency similar to tuna.

[@markanthony3275]

What some people call food...I call cat food. Giblets is another kind of cat food.

[@FromDream2RealityNow]

@@markanthony3275 have to agree. Ive tried them a few more times since and they are just too rank to eat. A gave it a solid try though.

[@TimArchambaultme]

On Day 2 of the sardine fast to kickoff my carnivore journey. My dad was a Sports Medicine MD and ate sardines regularly, now I know why. One more day to figure out the next part of the daily journey though I do plan on eating sardines with my first meal of the day each day for now. Thanks for sharing.

[@Barnabasanon]

Sardines has been a favorite of mine since I was a kid! Now I am 71 and still love and eat them!!

[@rosajohnson5212]

Thank you, Dr! I'm going to try. I started mid morning and I didn't feel hungry after eating only one can. I did eat another can of them in the evening. I will say, that I am likely to be adding onions, peppers and seasonings. I loved them as a child, but it's been quite a many years.😂😂😂😂. Plus, I ate them with crackers back then!😅

[@venom6827]

Hey good afternoon Doc! I thought of you a couple days ago when I failed to bring food out to my family farm, so I got to shop at the local Dollar store out in the country and loaded up on a pile of sardines which tasted amazing on the back forty haha🎉🎉

[@RachelN-ft5zu]

I did 1 day of Sardines and didn’t feel well all day and did not sleep at all that night. I’m glad it’s working for some people. Back to eating meat! 🎉

[@goldstar846]

They make me sick too. So does mct oil and stuff like that. Think it just means Our livers and gut are still quite weak and your right..just keeping eating meat if it works for you for now. then try again in a few months.

[@nonacee5065]

I don't have a gall bladder and fish oils make me really queasy with diarrhea. I have got enzyme tablets that help and will definitely take those at the start of the sardine challenge. Hopefully by the end my body will have accustomed itself to the omega 3. I do OK with all other fatty food, it's just fish oil that's my problem.

[@FleurLune]

Maybe you still aren’t fat adapted. I am Doing Keto and I have conditioned my body to tolerate more (healthy) fat. The beginning was horrible but I pushed through and I feel much healthier. I haven’t done the challenge yet but I am planning on doing it soon

[@ronniemead805]

They make me a bit nauseous.

I am finishing my MBA this month. I’ve gained 30lbs. going through the program. A lot of sitting. I’m healthy, eat right and workout but the stress got me. I decided to try a Dr weight loss center. I was so shocked and disappointed!!! They are giving exact advice they gave in 1991! I walked out being told to consume 100 grams protein, 30 grams fiber and 30 minutes exercise a day. I can get that advice sitting at a local bar! Thanks for your modern advice!

[@MrLuba6a]

hm...this video is a pure blessing for me ❤ 🙏 I intuitively thought about eating only sardines, but for a day or two. Just felt so, without any knowledge. Now I know, thanks to Dr.Boz, and on Monday,02.09.2024 I'll JUST DO IT! Thank you, Dr. Boz, and may God bless you 🙏❤

[@kathioneill2034]

I loved this! I had been doing regular fasting but I liked this eating protein. And, I liked eating the protein since I don’t want to lose muscle mass.

[@MultiShmed]

Every now and then, I love a good binge on sardines for a couple of days; now I know why! Thanks doc!!

[@Rumaelchannel]

It used to be the food of poor farmers in my grandparents' time. Now ''European Union Policy'' has drastically reduced fishing areas in the last few decades. Thank you and greetings to everyone from Portugal.

I love sardines !❤ There’s a plethora of choices to choose from out there, but I started with a less expensive brand for my buck, (Chicken of the Sea), Wild Caught in water. I was amazed at how delicious these tasted!

Definietly trying this with home cooked sardines. ( steamed / cooked with pepper, lime juice, herbs) Thank you so much. For the Sardines fast. 👍

Are you eating them straight out of the can or cooking them Jon?

True. Back when I was interested in CRON (calorie restriction optimum nutrition), sardines kept coming up as incredibly nutritious for their size and calories.

[@onemoredoll5791]

Literally just ate my 1st can EVER of sardines with skin on. I am so shocked that it wasnt bad. 😂 Literally 56 and never tried it. So here we go! I ate it straight from the can but did have some ground mustard on it.

[@CarolElliott-k9z]

I’m currently at 60 hours of my second sardine challenge. BG 73 & KB of 3.5 for a Dr Boz ratio of 20.85! I’m so thrilled with this progress! In 1997 I was in 3 rear-end car collisions over an 18 month period. Since then, I had developed chronic knots in my neck and shoulders that are quite painful-the first sardine challenge took those away in 3 days! I followed a keto diet in 2016 but drifted off the plan. Tried many times to restart only to derail after 2-3 days each time. Then I found your channel. Seeing the science-you explain everything so well-and your dedication to helping others understand the dynamics of their health conditions really has made such a difference! I have lost 20 lbs since May 14, 2020. Sleep has improved dramatically and I feel more like my younger self with boundless energy! Thank you so much for all that you do! You are so inspiring, and your sincerity comes through loud and clear! Thank you, again!

[@CarolElliott-k9z]

That should say I list 20 lbs since May o 2023!

Hello Dr Boz, Ive always loved sardines and happen to come across your video about this challenge. I just finished up the fast last night. I lost a total of 5lbs! Now Im making sure to only have a feeding window between 12-7pm. Im also going to do my best to reduce carbs (mediterranean style). I was already going to the gym but not eating right. Thank you so much for the research you are doing. Im really sick of being overweight. Ill be turning 50 in February and want to look, feel better with my health.

[@catrinebogriffith8453]

Hi, I need to understand. So you did a 72 fast along with the sardines? How many times per day did you it the sardines, at what time and how much? Thx

[@yazerazo]

@catrinebogriffith8453 I only ate a small can of sardines whenever I felt hungry. In my case that was 2 times throughout the day. One of those days I ate 3 times.

5lbs is amazing! I just turned 50 end of December.

Currently on day 11 of my waterfast, im doing 30 days. Then im going to do 3 days on liquid diet just to get everything working normally. Then im thinking to do a week on sardines, i love fish. Then im going to do a wk on egg diet, I love eggs 😊 i have like 35lbs to lose, then will gain 3kg of muscles by weight training. Goodluck

Interesting info Dr. Boz, thanks for sharing. I eat sardines and mackerel fish from the pouch packs. I still lift weights and walk uphill for 45 minutes. Let's go Dr. Boz!

[@jb6712]

I didn't know 'dines and mackerel came in pouch packs. Here where I live in the smack dab middle of the US, right in the very "middlest" middle of the Midwest, our regular grocery stores might, might not, carry things like that. I've only just begun to eat sardines, and haven't yet tried mackerel, though I have several cans of each in the pantry. I'll have to look in Walmart and Aldi, see what they carry.
