Right on Syn.
They do have them on display at the seafood section where you can buy less than 20lbs. These can be somewhat thawed and may stick together if re-frozen. If you ask someone they will bring out a case (approximately 20lbs) which are fully frozen and can be separated and thrown in the freezer without fear of sticking together.
It is worth noting that these sardines do not smell all gnarly like the bait ones do. They have a fresh, clean fish scent. I think the difference is that they have been properly frozen, not allowed to thaw, and shipped to store in a timely manner. I think that they don't worry as much about the "bait" ones that are marked "not for human consumption." IMO that is why the ones sold as "bait" can be stuck together and stinky as all hey'yall. haha
