Even Newman’s Own (a non-profit) is $4. $6-$10 is normal in my area, and it’s one of the least affluent areas of the country.

Like, where I am, the cheap classico sauce is about 3 bucks. And i dont doubt that the tomatoes they use come from Cali. Im across the continent, in a different country. I know some “ritzy” sauces here are encroaching on the 10$ mark. Its so fucked up

Your right, fuckin cheap! Pasta sauce around me is around 12.99. Well besides the store brand which is pretty much water now a days.

Most expensive one I could find with a simple google search in Germany is € 12.54 per kg,
the ones pictured above are 680g, so for $ 7.49 that’s $ 11.01 or € 9.55 per kg (at current exchange rate)Average price for pasta sauce in Germany seems to be around € 4.50 / kg, but then the Rao’s might be among the pricier sauces in the US?

It is. It’s a high-quality sauce made by a very famous restaurant in New York City. It’s one of those few products that immediately stands out when someone tries a blind taste test on you.

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.

I think ALDI’s Select pasta sauce is better for $3.60. Even at Costco price Raos is not worthed.
