Deciphering The Different Types Of Titus Sardines In The Market ( Field Work)

Some days ago, i  announced on facebook how some enemies of progress have reduced the normal three fishes inside "TITUS" sardine to two fishes and how i expect NAFDAC to act or we'll protest.

Sequel to that, i went to the market to see if i could identify the fake ones and the market women didn't make it easy. The things Crunchy go through just to make you all happy, chai!

Anyway, look through the pictures i took at the market and maybe you'll notice a difference, for me i noticed the two tins have different designs on top. i don't know which contains 2 or 3 fishes.

Check the design etched on the tin( The Red area below)
A different design here

I also found that there are 2 types of Titus which the market women called "husband and wife". You think it's the wifey Titus that has 3 fishes? Husbands, be like una no complete o!
