I DO NOT BUY GOYSLOP POISON SO IT DOESN'T MATTER TO ME LMAO

>>19580542
this stuff tastes terrible though so it fits with campbells

>>19580542
never buy Rao's again
noted

Rao's wasn't very good and already overpriced so not a huge loss. If there wasn't corn syrup in that stuff before there will be now.

>>19580543
>GOYSLOP
Hurr durr I posted it again

>>19580543
I checked a couple of the sauces and neither used any seed oils, sugar, corn syrup, or preservatives. It's not goyslop, but they do advertise $9 a jar, so it's yuppie slop.

Red sauce gives me heartburn so I don't care

>>19580545
Nothing tastes worse than Campbell's. Their tomato soup is really expensive ketchup packets squeezed into a can. All their shit is something I wouldn't wish on a death row child killer and serving it to people should be considered a violation of human rights.

>>19580542
How lucrative is the ragu market? A can of tomatoes is a dollar and you might be able to get romas fresh for even less. It's the easiest sauce to make.

>>19580599
There's no way in fuck you're making flavorful tomato sauce with .99 cent cans of tomatoes, or grocery store tomatoes without spending more than it costs for a jar of sauce, unless you're just growing your own stuff. Once those tomatoes cook down you're going to need a lot of them, and the actually ripe ones go for 2-3 USD a lb. Now figure you're going to need more than a pound to make 16 oz of sauce, at least one onion, garlic, etc; you are fucked.

>>19580543
of course you don't, your mom does all the shopping

>>19580599
i think tomato sauce is one of those things that is optimized well enough to always be cheaper than making it from scratch

>>19580542
Must be nice to be the perfect mix of rich and ignorant to buy sauces like this. Can't believe there are enough to warrant a $2.7b purchase.

>$2.7B
remember this when campbells is going out of business because they couldnt afford to sell soup for $0.50

>>19580542
I saw this shit priced at $16 at costco and I said out loud "$16? FUCK THAT."

I'd rather buy classico for $3 a jar when it goes on sale. Or make my own for cheaper.

>>19580542
what a ripoff I paid a dollar

>>19580570
Why are you so angry about a fun little meme?

>>19580542
evereytime I make pasta with rao's I watch an episode of the sopranos

>>19580599
>How lucrative is the ragu market?
I FEEL LIKE CHICKEN TONIGHT LIKE CHICKEN TONIGHT

>>19580961
I'm one of the chosen people, nothing I eat is goyslop by definition

>>19580590
>not stealing your storebought sauces
Lol

>>19580542
That seemes like a sucker move, rao's was always overpriced nyc crapola from that shithole little italy in manhattan.

>>19580542
>canned food company buys another canned food company
I understand that this is business news, but how does it relate to food?

>>19580999
>being a nigger
Joke's on you.

>>19580542
Why would anyone in their right mind give two fucks about rao's which was always overpriced nyc crap sauce meant for soccer moms.

>>19581036
Even at Grocery Outlet Rao's was at least $6/jar. I don't know who the hell buys it.

hopefully they liquidate the company
(for me rao is just too thick)

i like victoria sauce more

>>19580609
It's also, 100x more convenient and taste just as good sometimes even better.

I make my own sauce; I only buy Rao's pasta since they come on bogo

>>19580542
I saw more outrage that the recipe will change or Rao's will be discontinued than being outraged over more consolidation of food companies.

>>19580625
>>19580649
>>19581001
>>19581036
>>19581311
You just know this purchase will tank its reputation and sales will fall.

>>19580542
>And thus the only decent store-bought pasta sauce is now gone.
I dunno this shit is pretty decent.

>>19581311
I buy their tomato basil sauce.

>>19580566
9.99 for two 28oz jars at Costco isn't bad.

>>19581697
What purchase? I woudln't buy anything from rao's, they'd have to pay me to even get close to that shit and even then it wouldn't be enough.

>>19582423
It actually is pretty lame and you're shilling for them while being ripped off like a sucker.

>>19582423
How do you feel being a sucker?

Imagine paying a premium for pasta sauce. If you want a $5+ pot of good sauce you can just make it yourself, it's braindead easy

Fuck you it was not good. It was good enough to justify the fat price. So much better than any other tomato sugar slop on the shelf.

How do I invest in stocks and shit? Should you look for acquisition attempts to invest in? Food seems like a solid sector since it's literally needed to survive. I don't want /biz/ to trick me into buying shitcoins

I go for the Del Monte myself and jazz it up to the third degree.

>>19580625
throwing "homemade" on the label lets you increase the price by like 50% cause people are fucking idiots, imagine if they had thrown the word gluten-free on there too

>>19582515
Shouldn't homemade on a label qualify as false advertising?

>>19580984
chosen by the devil to bring strife to the world

>>19580543

>>19580961
>meme
Lmao nice cope.

>>19582589
Look closer, it's not homemade, it's HOMEMADE®. Great on Impossible Meat™!

>Homemade
I live in the company dorms underground so it's technically true!

>>19580592
>Nonwhite spotted

>>19582777
Checked, but Rao is a Chinese name, so they probably use the standard commie block setup with suicide nets.

>>19582589
>shouldn't Grandma's Cookies be false advertising if Grandma didn't make them?
Standards of false advertising are based around a reasonable customer's expectations, so we keep breeding you people stupider and stupider, I guess someday it will.

My co-worker buys this shit and it is way too acidic. I don't enjoy it. Plus it is $6-7 a jar. I can buy Walmart canned while tomato's and make a sauce infinitely better for half the price. Once you cooked the onions and garlic, you can just pop it in the oven and never think about it until it's close to being done.

>>19581697
I don't see why. Campbell's is pretty good.
This overpriced crap is an albatross around its' neck though. I am not paying $16 for a fucking 2 pack of this stuff at Costco. And I've never seen it in stores anywhere outside of Costco. As far as I can see, it's overpriced hipster garbage.

>>19582476
download robbing hood and sell all your dna and buy shares of VOO

>>19583117
What kind of shithole do you live in where you paying $16 whatever shit dollars for a two pack of campbells?

>>19582476
>>19583134
Consider parking some in CDs right now if you can afford to lose the liquidity. It's hard to beat 5%, probably even higher now. Just be sure to get out of that shit once the yield curve stops being inverted.

>>19583150
Hell yeah I gotts buy some compact discs.

>>19581895
"san marzano" how many meme bullshit names can you come up with. Tomatos aren't even native to italy, they're native to the Americas and you know it or you're lying.

I used to get Rao's occasionally and Silver Palate more often, but these days all I get is the Whole Foods generic marinara, tastes better than everything else and it's like $3 per jar. Glad I found it.

>>19580542
When are we going to bust up these monopolies?

>>19583155
Them PSX squiggles probably fetch a pretty penny on the retro market unless it already collapsed.

I say we bust up some fish dicks.

>>19580542
I thought raos was decent but fuck paying $8/pint, I can just spend $15 and make a couple gallons.
It's disappointing were down to just Newman's Own for widely available no BS sauces

>>19583194
Newman''s always sucked dick, Connecticunt soccer moms liked that shit because they liked to be seen spending money.

I think the best was Enrico's it's too bad that I cant find it anymore.
No big name, no celebrity bullshit, just good.

>>19583145
not campbell's you fuckwit, rao's pasta sauce. Your reading comprehension is shit

>>19583212
It's not shit, it's that I don't care about campbell's or rao's you shill sack of shit.
How much are you paid to shill for those cunts?

>>19580590

>Ingredients: Italian Whole Peeled Tomatoes, Olive Oil, Onions, Salt, Garlic, Basil, Black Pepper, Oregano.

Surprisingly not bad for a national brand. It's not even an ultra-processed food, just a normal processed food made from real ingredients. Kinda rare these days.

However! I can make sauce myself in about the time it takes to heat water and cook pasta anyway. These jarred sauces don't really save time.

>saute some garlic in olive oil, throw in basil stems if I need to get rid of them, add a couple of shallots or an onion or some hot peppers, whatever I feel like
>saute some cherry tomatoes in there to release juices
> add a good can of peeled tomatoes, crushed by hand, seasoned with salt and pepper
>throw in some fresh basil right at the end before pasta goes in
>toss the pasta in there, thin with pasta water as needed

That's the joy of pasta for me, I will never forgive my parents for raising me on jarred pasta sauce. I had to learn the right way to cook and eat pasta from fucking youtube.

>>19583212
At least be honest and go for Del Monte or are you too stupid?

>>19583223
They save time if one is a retarded soccer mom.

>>19583223
I can make sauce also, I use this capn crtunch blue shit.

>>19583223
Pft. I have all that shit at home. Good job, Raos, by not using lab chemicals you've made yourself irrelevant.

>>19580566
I liked their tv dinners

>>19583223
>I will never forgive my parents for raising me on jarred pasta sauce.
How insufferable.

>>19580542
>Rao's Homemade Sauce
>it isn't homemade

>>19583728
How dare you, the Rao's factory is home to MANY species of disease-carrying vermin.

>>19580566
>Rao's wasn't very good
Hilarious because it was almost universally praised as the only good store bought sauce before this thread. But 4chan has to be contrarians and anti corporate so now that they are owned by big corpo suddenly everyone has to pretend like they were against them from the beginning.

>>19582820
red sauce is the most non-white sauce you can have.
Tomato are brown people food.

>>19583150
I just checked out some CD calculator and if I invest 5000 at 4.85% APY I would make 242 in 1 year. I know it's free/low risk money, but that seems very underwhelming. And I don't have tens of thousands to throw in CDs.

>>19580543
> all caps
meds mate

>>19583161
RETARD ALERT. San Marzano is a cultivar name for a specific tomato. When you breed a new tomato that people want you can name it in your preferred Native American language. Italians breed better tomatoes than the Indians who found it; wow what a shock.
