LOVE TJs tomato basil. I cant eat any other brand, although I will now be trying Rao.

Costco's Kirkland brand--one of the few out there without added sugar.

We are both Italian and when my freezer stash of homemade sauce runs low, the only one I'lll consider using is Rao's.]

I feel exactly the same way about Rao's but I like Victoria Marinara almost as much.

We use Victoria's tomato basil... Found at giant. I think $6 a jar but until I can make a sauce that tastes like that I will be stuck buying. Delicious

We like Rao's but preferred Paesana. Whole Foods no longer carries Paesana, however, so I would love a local lead (NW DC) if anyone has seen it elsewhere.

Didn't read the entire thread, but Rao's is the best - heard of it here a couple of years ago and haven't turned back!

I've never tried Rao's but now I will based on the recommendations here.


If you are going to that much trouble, why not just used canned tomatoes and sauce instead of Ragu?


I do sometimes use canned tomato sauce instead, my family doesn't like big chunks of cooked tomato in their sauce though.

At any rate, Ragu is our "go to" jarred spaghetti sauce but I do prefer it a little doctored up, doesn't take long.

Victoria is THE BEST and Giant has great sales every few weeks. It was even recommended in some magazine.
