Wtf permalink fedilink source hideshow 20 child comments replies: [–] ccunning@lemmy.world 40 points 4 months ago (3 children) Raos is good. Pretty consistently top rated. I basically thought all jarred pasta sauces were garbage before I tried it. …it does always hurt a little when I splurge on a jar though. Also, Costco sells two packs of the 32oz jars for just a bit more than this and it goes on sale frequently. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] Marthirial@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago I think ALDI's Select pasta sauce is better for $3.60.
