Tasteless Sauce

by Janet, WA

This sauce had lttle or no flavor. I purchased 2 sets of the four sauces because I was a such a huge fan of Mario Batali sauce '. Batali's "Sweet Garlic & Toasted Fennel" sauce which was sold at Trader Joes several years ago and discontinued, was the best sauce ever sold in a jar. It was a huge disappointment when it was discontinued. If they brought "Sweet Garlic and Toasted Fennel" sauce back into production, they would have happy customers!

Bring back Sweet Garlic & Taosted Fennel

by Janet, WA

January 28, 2010

This sauce was extremely watery and quite tasteless. Nothing compared to Mario Batali's Sweet Garlic & Toasted Fennal Pasta Sauce that was carried at Trader Joes and discontinued several years ago. The discontinued sauce was fantastic. Wish they would bring it back!!!

All you could taste was red pepper

This sauce was like eating red pepper straight from the jar. I had to mix it with their other bland sauce "Tomatoe & Basil" just to make it edible. I had purchased the set of 4 sauces thinking it would be as wonderful as Mario Batali's "Sweet Garlic & Toasted Fennel" sauce which was discontinued several year ago. If they brought "Sweet Garlic and Toasted Fennel" sauce back, I would buy it by the case.

The best of the 4 sauces

The Marinara Pasta Sauce was the best of the four sauces. At least it had a hint of flavor.

Arrabiatta Sauce by Mario Batali

I have been looking for this sauce for about a year. It was at one time carried by Whole Foods. Very spicy!! Nice chunks of tomatoes, but a bit watery, possibly for the pallette of those who want a less ANGRY sauce. I recommend that it be cooked down to make it thicker.
