Canned sardines are a cultural icon in Portugal. The fish has such a long history that it even has its own festival. Family-owned Ramirez & Sons has kept the canning tradition alive for nearly 200 years. But it hasn’t been easy. The company has faced dropping fish stocks and a revolution. So how has Ramirez survived? We visit Portugal to find out.

  1. Its amazing what the fast food of America has done to these women working in this factory and across Europe. 30 years ago these huge weight gains would not be seen. Sad to see what american food has done to this population

  2. If Business Insider did a story on stinky feet they would blame it on climate change. The unthinking narrator shows a slide on gross overfishing going back to the 1970's then says today's low catch is due to hot water. Lying climate nazis want to run your life through the cause that can't be proven. Immediately stopped their propaganda video when it was clear it is designed to elect liberals.

  3. Funny story: when working at a factory, one of the janitors was an old Newfie guy (slang for someone from Newfoundland, Canada…They're an odd bunch) who would tell outlandish stories on breaks and lunch.
    The absolute best was when he enthusiastically claimed that his father was the person who INVENTED putting fish into cans…it was pretty great breaktime entertainment lmfao.
