I learned from America’s Test Kitchen to look at the ingredients. If the first ingredient is tomato paste or tomato concentrate, pass. If it is tomatoes, it will probably be fine. Although usually this means a more expensive jar, there are plenty of expensive/fancy looking jars that don’t pass this test.

That said, Del Grosso’s has a premium line with “Aunt Mary Anne’s Marinara”. It is our go-to and far and away the best I’ve tried.

Sprinkle some salsa and sour cream on it before you bake. I know it sounds weird, but it is so good.

The other half is violence.

Serious question: what do you not like about snaps? I find the isolation and dependency desolation to be pretty great.
