Damn. You're fancy. That was like over seven dollars a jar at Aldi. Been curious though.

It's very good. Kenji Lopez-Alt swears by it, and if it's good enough for him, it's good enough for me lol. I get it at Costco, and I don't think it was that expensive.

IDK who that guy is, but if you trust him, I trust him.

Try arrabiata(sp?) version if they have it.

[–] LilDumpy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I have never tried it. I'll look this weekend.

It's basically ghe only brand not full of added sugar.

[–] LilDumpy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Ya. I hate that shit. I prefer my foods to be more acidic, and everything has so much damn sugar which cuts the acidity to me. Why is red pasta sauce sweet? idk I hate it though.

I got two big jars for 9.98 at Sam's today. They're each almost twice the size of what Walmart carries, which is almost $5 a jar. 44 oz for $10 vs 13 oz for $5

It makes an excellent pizza sauce for home made pizzas too.

Damn, that's some good value. At that value might be willing to spice it up on my own with all these other suggestions in the comments.

Rao's is basically more sauce per jar than other brands because it's not watered down to slime. I can sauce easily twice as many servings of pasta from a jar of Rao's than Classico or Prego.

They did just get bought out so this is probably only true for another year or so.

[–] LilDumpy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Ya, I hate sauces that are watery and full of sugar. Give me the thicccc red sauce with a little bit of acid. Been wanting to try Rao, but it was expensive the last time I saw. Maybe I will get some this weekend before they fully transition to watery slop for that important bottom line.
