About this product
A 106 g can of lightly smoked brisling sardines packed in extra virgin olive oil, sold in Norway as the Classic member of the King Oscar sardine range.[2][3] The front carries the portrait of Oscar II and the line "BY SPECIAL ROYAL PERMISSION", a reference to 1902, when the king allowed the Stavanger cannery Chr. Bjelland & Co to put his name and likeness on a line of sardines.[4][5] "Sardine" here is a method rather than a species: King Oscar packs brisling, a small sprat fished in the North Sea and the deep Norwegian fjords and caught full-grown at 9,5 to 13,5 cm, and each fish is laid in the can by hand.[3][2] The panel on this can is printed per 100 g of drained weight, and the maker publishes a fuller table for the same article.[6][2]

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.
- Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
- Context: 2 / 2 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
- Label photographs: 1 / 2 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
- Norwegian 106 g can: nutrient evidence: 9 / 9 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
- King Oscar Norway page for this article: nutrient evidence: 28 / 28 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
- identity · unknown: No country_of_origin is recorded: neither the can nor the maker's page states where it was made, and the Norwegian retailer record gives Produsert i as Ukjent. Wikipedia notes a King Oscar production facility in Svolvær, but nothing ties this article to it
- nutrition · disputed: The maker's table prints sodium 315 mg beside salt 1,0 g, which is 400 mg of sodium; both figures are kept as printed and the sodium is marked disputed
- nutrition · disputed: Open Food Facts types the energy as 246 kcal against its own 1083 kJ; the can and the maker both print 261 kcal, which the macronutrients support, so the typed value is not used
- identity · schema_gap: The can states 8 to 14 fish per tin; piece_count holds a single integer and cannot express a range, so the figure is kept as a label claim
- packaging · not_applicable: Open Food Facts gives origins as "FAO 27, Nordøst-Atlanteren", which is the catch area and never a country of origin
- relationships · stale: company/king-oscar-as states no gs1_prefixes; a review pass cannot amend an existing company stub, so prefix 7027110 is recorded only on the gs1_prefix_owner row here
- evidence · stale: Evidence was observed over a year ago; check for newer labels. Historical evidence remains valid.
