Tomato-free pizza on the menu as chefs choke on the price of fruit and veg
- jaclaz 4y ago>The price of canned tomatoes has doubled, it said, from £15 a case to £30. Not knowing how many kg are "a case" it is difficult to say anything, but on Sainsbury's site canned tomatoes are in the £1.38 to £2.50 per kg range. Considering that on a pizza there could be at the most 100 g tomato sauce, at the most it is £0.25 value. And this is a retail price. So - maybe - the issue is about availability in quantities, but not the costs increase of the canned tomatoes.

- gsora 4y agoPizza without tomato is a treat! It’s typical in Naples and Campania in general: makes good olive oil and mozzarella shine.
