Rouse's has it at 2 for 1.. Total price is $7.49 starting tomorrow... Is it worth it?

No I haven't but I would not try it either. To me that would be like buying Guido's jambalaya mix.

It's frickin awesome for what it is. My dad's an 8hr spaghetti cooker and super elitist about. We got a jar after a friend begged us and we were all pretty shocked at how good it was. Is it as good as an elite homemade spaghetti? No. For the minimal effort it requires, it's great though

I made a baked ziti with it a few weeks ago and thought it was pretty damn good. It's not Rao's but it's cheaper and has a nice little kick to it.

I've been trying different more expensive sauces. I think Mutti is the best. But Sal's is pretty good too as is Vics for local cajun sauces. Vics was sweet and paired better with hot Italian sausage.
. Cajun power is ok. I like their court bouillon base for seafood better than their pasta sauce they have other sauces but the red gravy was just a little better than Prego.
Still I like it best when I start with canned Italian tomatoes. It really doesn't take that long to make from scratch without the added crap.

I think it’s pretty good. I made a lasagna with it last week. I doctored it a tad, but really good for jarred sauce.

I liked it , although the wife did not. It was different and not sweet. It actually had me wanting to try more of their stuff, but after the wife didn`t like it, I have not tried their other products.

The chili starter is good, and their garlic sauce is excellent. It has a vinegary, garlic kick that is great add to a pot of beans, etouffee , jamb, etc...

I've tried it and thought it was good. I liked the spice level. Although I liked it, I haven't bought it again, mainly because I like making the sauce from scratch when I have time.

I “make” my spaghetti in big batches & freeze
2 Cajun Power & 1 Monjunis for a little sweetness

It is absolutely worth it

Big fan of their products, but this is one I will no longer use. Just too easy to do it another way with better results. Heck Rao's is better if one wants jar.

It's pretty gross, to be honest. I typically use Mandina's Red Gravy for a chicken mozz pasta dish i like to make. They ran out of Mandina' so i tried this in a pinch. It is not italian. it's more a overly seasoned beef stock mixed with some tomato sauce. It just tastes off.

Most of their stuff is legit. I love cooking from scratch but when you have 3 active kids, sometimes you just have to use a jar sauce or bag/box mix for a quick supper.

Funny you should mention that Pawl. I recently read an article regarding overweight transgender furries and their disdain for bake ziti. I originally dismissed it as rubbish but as seeing your comment I guess it held some merit.

Buy as much as you can, locally made and works well with a lot of different applications.
