They're out of Frederick, MD, some produce stands sell their products. Or make a Fall weekend drive to their store. https://mccutcheons.com/


That's like saying someone is the best hockey player in Ecuador.

How do you make yours? I’ve tried and usually prefer the expensive jarred stuff. And the convenience alone is worth a ton.

Exactly how much time is not time at all?

It’s like when Coke bought Honest Tea. It was profitable, just not profitable enough for them to continue to bother with. So they killed the product and consumers lost out on a tasty low-sugar slightly sweet drink option.

There’s no way Campbell’s will keep Rao’s the way it is. That’s just not how these giant corporations work.


Honest Tea became Just Ice Tea. Same owner.

Like...?


Grandmas Pomodoro at wegmans for one

Rao’s was good but any jarred sauce that uses olive oil and no sugar is going to be roughly equivalently good. There’s plenty, just read the labels.


No one else makes a sensitive marinara!


Fody does

Co-signing. Rao’s is the only marinara that I’ve ever really liked. Bummer. Hyper-bummer. Sigh.

Looking for alternative suggestions.

So can we stock up on a few jars before they change the recipe?

Oh, you sweet summer child. Some executive will demand that they cut production costs, leading to changing the recipe (and it won’t be a change for better taste).


Indeed! Cheaper ingredients Wii ruin A good thing.
