I hope this causes some traffic. But the thing I hate about the cans of tomatos, or fresh or passata is basically the skin, seeds, pulp etc. Taste of tomato - yes. Seeds, pulp, skins - etc. - no.

So recently I did something terrible. I added tomato soup instead of tinned or fresh tomatos. I'm now making the best bolognese sauces I've ever made. I've been using the soup in some curries as well. This combined with the wonderful braised onions in Ez cans of onions ......

If you think about the work and time that goes into cream of tomato soup .......

Anyway - in the UK - Waitrose own brand is better than Heinz if anyone is interested.
