- rwmj 10y agoI'm guessing the GP means tomato (pasta) sauce, which is usually stuffed with all sorts of terrible stuff. Making incredible pasta sauce is so easy I don't know why anyone buys it pre-made.

Of course, make sure you drink enough non-sugary, non-alcoholic liquids with your salt. But people automatically get thirsty on salt anyway---so no need for advice.
- tonyedgecombe 10y agoThe same here (UK), in fact tinned tomatoes are often better quality than the generic fresh ones on sale in most supermarkets.
