It states these are caught off the central California coast; however, the case I Recieved states can and process in Vietman. How does make sense?

American labor in American facilities were earning an almost living wages. Some shops were also unionized which meant they would get medical benefits and retirement. The factories were closed and all the jobs were shipped overseas, in this case, the communist North Vietnam where at the time, labor rate was 50c per day American money. Sardines are hugely profitable for the fish mongers. Per CIA Fact Book, the labor rates in Vietnam have increased and as of the last time I checked, they are making $1.50 per day. Enjoy the benefits of modern colonialism and slavery. It should be added that Communist Red China has also been shipping jobs to Vietnam. I mean why pay $5 an hour for skilled people when you can pay $1 per day. Plus there the whole working around US sanction thing.

Are they skinless and boneless?

As of June 2019, the sardines that I received have no heads, no tails, no skin and I did not see any bones (although the bones might be there). They are "all meat" with olive oil.

I was able to go to the website www.wildplanetfoods.com and it does say that the wild sardines are packed in cans that are bpa free. You may check it for yourself. I am still not sure about the Wild Planet Tuna.

are these the whole fish - with heads, eyes, bones, tails, etc? the description says "whole portions" but just wanted to confirm. thanks.

no heads, eyes, and tails. I think the bones are still there and the main source of calcium but you barely feel it.
