Tomato based pasta sauces
Tinned tomatoes are relatively cheap, where as pasta sauces cost much more beause of the label and packaging. Making your own sauce is easy and you don’t have to eat the salt or additives added to pre-made sauces. Saute an onion and a clove of garlic in a pan, add a can of tomatoes and a dash of white wine, season with herbs and leave to simmer until the right consistency.

Most of this stuff is bought for the convenience of not having to make it yourself. That's what you pay for. Every idiot knows that if you make stuff yourself, it's cheaper. But not everyone has the time. People work!
ReplyI've bought all of them at some time. It's called time saving. Sheesh...
Reply"pasta sauces cost much more beause of the label and packaging" - as compared to tinned tomatoes (and all of the other ingredients) that don't have labels or packaging.
