Anyone else read the title and think "Who is Jarred?"
I did, thought Jarred was some kind of pasta sauce brand
Legit had a brainfart when I read it
my ex boyfriend is named Jarred with two r’s 💀
Why did it take me this long to finally realise I was reading the title wrong 💀
nice pfp
Anyone else get 5 ads for "FX's The Bear" during this video? 😅
Yup lol
Yep
What's an ad? UA-cam premium is keyyy

Watching someone eat sauce out of a jar for 46 minutes. Exciting Friday night. 😄
Then why are you here?
@@jameswent48 all right completely changing/removing my comment. I had NO idea what had been going on in Andrew's personal life, and now that I've read his Reddit post about it, I apologize to him and hope he's able to heal. He's always seemed like such a genuinely great guy, and I made incorrect assumptions. Andrew, I'm sorry, and I really hope things start looking up for you.
You sound like my kinda gal😍😍
@@thomaspalmer501 I'm relatively certain that he is not just "phoning it in." He's had some very intense, and I'm sure incredibly scary, mental issues which he has shared.
After being institutionalized for a while, losing his fiance, and I'm sure probably a few other things he wishes to keep private, he's probably trying to give himself the mental space he needs for it to not happen again.
I imagine he probably does a fair bit behind the scenes, but has handed off the more labor intensive and mentally taxing stuff to Alvin and the rest of the crew.
I don't even like pasta sauces and I watched it for some reason or another, if that makes you feel any better.
very glad to see Classico wasn't rated low, me and my family washed out the jars after we used them, now they compose a decent portion of our drinking glasses and food storage jars :D
Whoever Jarred is, he needs to chill out with all the pasta sauces...
Hopefully it's not the Subway one.
When I first saw that I thought they were talking about the corrupt Jared (one R) who wants to displace all the Gazans so he can build expensive seaside condos. Then I realized it was tomato sauce. Even the ones that place at the bottom are a higher level than Jared.
Babish should include the Walmart brand, so he can make more jokes about the poors
That's what I'm sayin.
came to say when i saw this i thought what is this exotic new Jarred sauce of which you speak??
You should combine all of the opened jars to make a giant spaghetti. Let's find out if the sum is greater than the parts.
What a wild idea. I'm trying to imagine how much pasta that would require
@safiya nygaard - a pasta Frankensauce!?
No there's too many low tiers.
It would turn into rage or prego
@@sabbathjackal Just leave em out, nobody needs to know
Italian jungle juice
So just something to take note of: When Prego was first starting up as a company, it was not intended to marketed as a stand alone sauce, it was supposed to be a sauce BASE. But they didnt think it would sell well enough, if they said "Just add fresh spices and herbs" because other sauces on the market were just that, fully finished sauces.
You are supposed to, per the original makers idea, add various things to make the sauce your own. Fresh veggies, meat, spices, herbs, and cheeses, and you were also supposed to add about 1/4 cup of pasta water to the sauce while heating it to a low boil, to thicken it, as it was left thin for the purpose of being easier to add more herbs and spices.
This is how my family has always used all pasta sauces from a jar
At that point why not just make your own sauce with a can of tomatoes instead of a jarred base
@@savaresta The idea was to have a base that only needed minor tweaks.
Think of it like a 40k or D&D mini. Just add paint, and its custom to your preferences.
@@savaresta because making your own tomato sauce from scratch is still much more work than just putting some seasoning in a pre-made sauce base
@@CPFMTKV Essentially, but tinned tomatoes (if tomatoes are not in season), some sauteed garlic/onion and simple seasoning is one of the laziest things to whip up. "Much more" only applies relative to simply dumping a jar into your pasta, but as far as generally, it's almost no effort at all.
I dislike your website requiring a subscription to view recipes. I've been using your recipes for years and now don't have access out of the blue.
yes dude! loved babish for years but I can't use his brownie recipe at free-will anymore 😔
But he wants to sell your verified contact info 😊

"Prego means 'you're welcome'. A really cocky name for an average pasta sauce."
- Peter Griffin
I feel validated because I've always felt like they all tasted nearly identical. It's amazing that they manage to take up so much space in the grocery store with such trivial variations.
most of them are what like 99% just processed tomatoes too so calling them a pasta sauce is also kinda funny when you can just combine crushed tomatoes with like garlic and olive oil and you have a better product
Thank you, Andrew, now i know which sauces to get for my family! Being allergic to allium (garlic and onion), dairy, nuts, cinnamon, bananas and water chestnuts absolutely blows. I just discovered Rao's and Prego's 'sensitive' sauces and it's the first prepackaged food ive been able to have in so long. I literally cried. I cried, and then added a ton of chili's, fresh basil and some wine 🤤
I also am allergic to alliums!! There is an entire brand called fody that makes salsas dressings and even ketchup without them!!!
Fun fact, rao's got bought by Campbell's soup. So there goes any amount of better quality rao's had
I just fell to my knees
Soon, we'll be buying pasta sauce with a lid you can drink from so you can have pasta on the go
Noooo. No. Noooo
That explains why the flavor changed in the not so distant past....It used to be my favorite and now it just tastes...wrong.
The Trader Joe's marinara used to be sold in a large can years ago. It's 100% designed to be used as a base to build your sauce off of, and for the price and quality, is a large step ahead of the other canned options. $2, add whatever you want to it. EDIT: It's fantastic as a base for soups and chili.
I use any and all of the pasta sauces as a base
Also trader Joe's is just another name for Aldi's.
@@greenhaloxbox3850 And Aldi is awesome!
@@greenhaloxbox3850 - they're owned by the same parent company, but Trader Joes is *completely* different than Aldi...
@@GrahamCrannellI'm disappointed that he didn't include Aldi sauces; they're pretty much the only ones I buy.
As someone who’s go to is usually Bertolli’s Alfredo, I’m happy to say this is one of the few instances that Babish has not insisted I am a dishonor to my cow for liking a product, and even deemed it the top of the surreal tinned cream sauces, so I find victory in this day
My go to alfredo is bertolli. I'm glad to see it got the best score of the alfredo sauces..
my favorite was Classico's Alfredo....
in my defense I usually go with Four Cheese or Creamy instead of Roasted Garlic so maybe that's why he didn't like it
SAME
Just a heads up, it takes about 2 minutes to make your own Alfredo and its taste so much better than store bought you’ll never be able to buy it again. I’d suggest you do that! Only 3/4 ingredients depending on how you do it!
It's crazy that Hunts is $5 for y'all cause it's like $1 where I live. I think it recently went up to $1.20 and I was annoyed. In college it was my go-to sauce cause it was $0.98 cents. I could feed myself for a whole week on $2 with the cheap $1 pasta and the Hunts sauce.
Same here! I was like, I know it's not amazing or anything but it's only a dollar, meanwhile someone is making bank selling those for $5 a can.
I was thinking the same thing! It's like half the price of Ragu anywhere I've ever seen it (it's also my favorite, for some reason anything else is a textural nightmare). Kinda feel like someone's notes were wrong lol
Yeah that must be a New York thing. Hunts is insanely cheap here. Usually under a dollar on sale.
Thank you! Same!
@@bradyb9929New Yorker here, it's between $1 and $2 per can
Babish: “these all taste like stainless steel.”
Babish’s teeth: “ouch. that forking hurts!”
Lidia's pasta sauce is Lidia Bastianich sauce. Who's the mother of Joe Bastianich one of the judges of MasterChef US. Never knew she had her own sauce
she was famous for her own cooking long before her son was ever on TV.
@@thechief00 I'm aware, but I assure you majority of people, like Babish (I assume because he didn't mention it or anything) may not know who she is.
Feel sad for all you people who never experienced public access television with CreateTV. Lidia's one of the GOATs
@@nonameaccount7773 As do I
pretty sure everyone with parents who forced them to watch tv with them because there was only one tv knows who lidia is
The way he hits the fork on his teeth EVERY TIME...
Nails, meet chalkboard.
As toxic as my mother is, at least she taught me and my sisters not to scrape our teeth on our forks. 😖
I THOUGHT THE SAME THING
You are all correct. This is unwatchable.
Grounds for divorce!
I'm glad to see my preferred brand of Classico generally score pretty alright.
Same!! People are always raving about Rao’s I will die on the hill that Classico tastes the same if not very slightly better better than Raos. And I’m saving $5
as someoen from outside murcia that barilla was basically the only option I've ever seen from the ones he tried, and newmans own but havent seen those for probably 20 years classico seems to be the best value for money from what he was describing and the prices
Where in the world are you getting Hunts pasta sauce that it's $5? It's $1 to $1.50 at Walmart, Target, Amazon, Hy-Vee, Kroger, etc. It's the cheapest of all pasta sauces.
L.A
right? that price is absurd, it's dirt cheap here in Denver, that's why I buy it.
@@ramsongewargis8736 but they are in NY arent they?
@@WayStedYouI thought they were in NYC
Alternative title: Binging With Heartburn.
You need Rao's Sensitive.
Andrew's getting teady for the jam/pickling season
you definitely shouldn't use store-bought pasta jars for home canning (this also goes for pickle jars, or olive jars, or anything like that). The factories use industrial equipment to seal the cans; a home-canning process won't get them to seal properly. For anyone thinking of reusing pasta or pickle jars: just go buy a set of Ball mason jars and two-piece lids.
Not knowing who Lidia is surprised me. Co-owner of Eataly and owner of Becca in Manhattan
I was also surprised! She is probably one of the most prominent Italian American chefs, not to mention that she has written many classic cookbooks on Italian home cooking…
Not to mention a TV chef for decades.
I used to watch Lidia every week on PBS, she also has a UA-cam channel

Am I going to spend the last 30 minutes of my work day watching a 45 minute long Babish video? Yes, yes I am.
Twins!
Triplets 😂
Quads
we getting fired today
Is not just 45 minutes , its more cause they put a lot of ads in this video 😂
Best place to get Raos is probably Costco. The jar is bigger (24oz vs 28oz), and they come in a 2 pack between $12-15, and go on sale. Downside is you only get one type at Costco
Goes on sale 4 times a year.
$8.99 for the 2-pack.
Costco actually make a Raos knockoff sauce now. We did a "blind" taste test a few weeks back. All but one person got them confused
@@jonv8177 knowing Costco's history of products, it's possible that they're made along side Rao's.
Sam's club also sells it. A 2 pack
Vitacost often has it on sale. Check it out.
The chaos of these rankings is always a treat.
chunky six cheese was my nickname in high school
Lol
No it wasn’t
how did you get that as your nickname
Mine was chunky mama
This guy seems smart, he should try cooking
Besides the fact he didn’t warm up the sauce and was shocked when Alfredo was gross at room temp and way better warmed up
@@markdouglas1601I’m so glad someone else agrees the sauces should have been heated. They’d have tasted more like the intended flavor.
How does he not know who Lidia Bastianich is?!?!?
Joe Bastianich’s mom?
It's not a tomato sauce but Aldi had this Butternut Squash pasta sauce that I just loved. Perfect for those winter blues night when I want comfort with minimal effort
I would love if these taste tests included someone who was less familiar to the homemade version of the product. For almost every one Andrew said it had a "fake" taste, but it would be nice to hear the opinion of someone who almost exclusively has the frame of reference of using packaged products.
then go watch someone who does just that. this is his channel from his perspective, so that’s what he’s going to share. there are countless pasta sauce taste tests and rankings on the internet. this was just specifically his.
calling again for a request of trying chocolate ice cream and/or peanut butters
600 flavors from Prego and Ragu but only one flavor from Barilla? I wanted to see their tomato/basil variety!
How does he not know who Lydia Bastianich is?
It’s a shame he never reviewed Mutti sauces as I love their sauces.
Especially their Tomato and Calabrian Chilli Sauce.
I tried Mutti recently, and hated it.
I only use mutti passata but honestly I’m fine if it stays a secret 🤗
@@herbertholland924 If you're used to these other sauces that are full of added sugars and extracts, Mutti will be lacking in taste. If you're used to homemade sauces with only a few ingredients, that's more Mutti's ballpark.
@@defaultusername4410 I primarily make my own sauce, and still did not care for Mutti. The only Jarred sauce that I like is Raos.
@@defaultusername4410 it tasted almost the same as most of the pasta sauces I've tried in Australia it was just chunkier
Not gonna lie... I kinda love that weirdly sweet Ragu/Prego style sauce when I'm in a nostalgic headspace... I know it sucks in terms of overall quality, but I like it because spaghetti with that and some cheddar cheese on it brings me right back to childhood and a place of comfort.
It reminds me of my college days
Ragu has a nostalgic taste for me. When I was a kid my aunt would make fettucine with Original Ragu, meatballs, and Italian sausage. I still enjoy it for that reason even though I'm fully aware it is an otherwise ok sauce at best. I was never a big fan of Prego/Ragu variations of any sort outside of the original flavors as a kid
I can’t get over how babish bobs his head up and down when eating the noodles
YOU DIDNT EVEN DO THE RAOS ROASTED GARLIC SAUCE
It is hands down the most garliciest sauce I've ever had I love it so much
I usually get generic cheap canned tomato sauce for pasta and build it up by roasting bell peppers and garlic and blending it and adding it to the sauce along with plenty of spices. But no matter how cheap it is I will NEVER get pasta sauce that has meat in or premade Alfredo. Adding in your own meat or making Alfredo from scratch is ALWAYS worth it in my opinion
A nice sofrito will always be able to rescue any jarred sauce! I also like blending my sofrito and cooking it down for 5-10 minutes when making it from scratch, although I just halve or quarter some garlic and add that after the tomatoes. To each their own, but I like having nice chunks of garlic in my sauce.
I almost always get the canned whole tomatoes, because with crushed/pureed tomatoes they can get away with using lower quality tomatoes.
Fun thing here... I am diabetic, and I find that Classico tends to have far less sugar than any of the other brands, even tying or beating Raos depending on the specific sauce.
also pretty widely available an pretty decent so I'm glad you have a solid choice on lock for your needs 😎
As a fellow diabetic, don't you find that the carb content of the pasta negates almost any difference in the sauce? I don't eat much pasta, I try to avoid it because I always tend to overeat and need another dose of insulin - I'm just curious!
@@Zractor I don't use it on pasta, but on baked chicken and such
@@cpljimmyneutron That makes sense! I'll spring for it next time I'm out and about & searching for pasta sauce. Thanks for the tip!
That's why we use Newman's Own, there is no sugar
Knowing multiple people who have worked at Ragu, Ragu and Bertolli come out of the same factory. Probably happens at all sauce places, but the crates of tomatoes sit out in the parking lot until they're needed and often explode in the heat.
Surprised to not see any of the Mezzetta offerings. my favorite being the Italian plum
Hands down best value. Only one I'd ever buy.
Ooh, the butter finish is a neat idea! I often have a little pasta just with butter, salt, pepper, and parmesan, and then some with sauce, and when i'm done with the buttery one, I drizzle what's left over the saucy one, and it's great!
My trick if a sauce comes out just a little flatter than I hoped, and you're gonna _despise_ this, I already know, but... I toss a single slice of American cheese in and stir until melted and distributed, and it _really_ wakes up a sauce. Plus emulsifies it to blend in any oil slicks on top (which if I'm not doing that, I use a little mustard powder to emulsify instead).
It's just one of those really weird little hacks, that if you _tell_ people about, they go, "Ew, gross, why would you do that!?" But if you _don't_ tell them, they go, "Wow, this sauce was amazing! There was something really punchy and vibrant about it but I have no idea what."
honestly, newman's own marinara is my favorite because it's not too heavily seasoned, not too full of big tomato chunks, and still has a yummy taste. marinara is best when it doesn't hurt my tummy.
Rao's is by far my favorite jar sauce I can get in my area. I prefer to make my own but when I'm in a rush I grab Rao's before any of the ones before it.
Our family likes Victoria’s marinara sauce from Costco.
I swear I expected Mutti to be among the candidates.
I think it is pretty great, a bit expensive but very tasty and high quality.
Finally, the ultimate sauce list
Nah, didn't do jarred pesto.
The ultimate uncooked jarred sauce list
$5? Where do you buy your Hunt's? Must be NYC prices, around here its between $1 and $1.50 a can. Which is more reasonable considering. Works fine as a base for building up a sauce.
I didn’t grow up eating jarred sauce. My parents are first Gen Italian. My dad was also a truck driver and his CB handle was “The Big Ragu” ❤ It takes less time to make your own sauce. I tell everyone that all the time. 😂
how so? a jar of sauce just needs to be heated up. making your own sauce requires more steps than just warming. so that just isn’t true. it’s also more expensive to make from scratch compared to most jarred sauces.
Was that "ahhh the italian sausage" an orson welles paul masson ref? If so, I died laughing.
"There's a spaghetti sauce by Classico, inspired by that same Italian excellence!"
It totally was that and it made me laugh out loud
Dunno why you stopped doing the blind taste tests, it’s the only unbiased way to do it.
Moral of the story, spend 2.50 on a can of crushed tomatoes and make your own sauce for a quarter of the price
Ten dollars for a jar of pasta sauce is absolutely insane
wherever they are shopping the prices seem to be a little more than double what I've seen anywhere else in the US. I'd wager that ten dollar jar is less than 5 here.
I love how unhinged this video is, this is what I signed up for. Thank you for this.
Paul Newman's Sockarooni is my go-to jarred sauce. Although, I usually add at least one chopped up tomato and some sautéed bell pepper (if I have any) just to give it some extra crunch and brightness.
Arrggh! That green pepper $&?!
From an Italian speaking family, I've had the joy of laughing about Prego sauce my entire life over just how bold that name is 😂
Raos is decent to use as a base if you add fresh ingredients to it. However, the best thing you can do for quick pasta sauce IMO is just buy the canned San Marzano tomatoes, puree them, and add whatever herbs and ingredients you like.
I actually really appreciate this series of rating food products because you're offering me info I can use when I do my grocery shopping. Thank you babish
Definitely have nostalgia for some of the cheap sauces as that’s what we had when I was a kid growing up in the Midwest. Brown ground beef, add sauce, simmer, throw on top of overcooked pasta. Serve with kraft “parmesan.”
These days, I just take a can of whole peeled tomatoes and add salt, butter, and onion - thanks Marcella Hazan. Sometimes some garlic, but that’s about it.
So glad I’m not the only one who was wondering who Jarred was
Mezzetta makes my favorite jarred sauce
Same! They are my favorite as well. Mezzetta makes a fantastic jarred marinara!
Love these rankings! Cookie dough please ❤❤❤
My favorite by far is MID's, specifically the meat one. Best jarred sauce I've ever found straight out of the jar.
In our family the jar is the base, then we add stuff to it, like crushed tomato , sausage, spices, etc. It does go against the instant nature of jar sauce, but used as a time saver in making sauce from scratch. We use Classico as the base.
Quite insightful and makes me want to try some other jarred pasta sauces.
I'll have to try that butter trick.
I still have just a teeny bit of a visceral reaction whenever I see a jar of tomato sauce, because I had one just implode in my hand while I was at work.
7 stitches on mty thumb later...
Any idea why???
Thank you for the butter shout out, added it to a basic jar of sauce once when I was little and never looked back!
Love this series, but has to be a blind taste test for reliable results! Look at the jar after 🙌
I love these so much, especially the pained guilt at liking the most expensive ones.
bertolli was my go to for alfredo during my single bachelor years
bertolli is a pantry staple here
Waste. Alfredo is literally parm, butter, and pasta water to emulsify. Anything else is just bland AF.
My in-house Alfredo is cream, reduced slightly in the (nonstick) pan as it comes up to temperature. Nutmeg and white pepper for seasoning, then fresh grated parm. Once the cheese melts into the sauce, it either goes over the pasta, or the pasta goes into the pan to get coated.
I would have loved to see a practical joke where somebody takes one of the pasta jars empties the sauce fills it with babish's own homemade sauce and then see if he can tell
Its so nice to see the BCU crew so chill and funny on camera lately...I love it so much! 😊
I feel like you would give more fair unbiased reviews if they were blind taste tests.
The amount of dishes and pasta that had to have amounted after this. Thank you crew!!
My go-to sauce is Michael's of Brooklyn. Their Tomato Basil sauce is the best at my local grocery store. I'll be on the lookout for Carbone now.
The amount he hits his teeth with the fork, you'd expect him to chip one.
this definitely helps my shopping
I want to see a pre-packaged pastry ranking, like Little Debbie, Hostess, Drake’s, Tastykake, etc!
watched the first half of this, went and made some pasta, now I’m back
Definitely something wrong with the HUNTS pricing. Even in New York those things can't get above 2 dollars. 5 dollars is almost 5 times the price here in the midwest, and I know coastal city cost isn't that high for food.
2:10 tomato is a fruit and a vegetable
fruit is a botanical term for the fleshy part of a plant containing the seeds
vegetables is a culinary term
tomatoes are fruit vegetable, lettuce is a leaf vegetable, carrots are root vegetable, etc
fruits and vegetables are not opposites, they are in different lexical fields
other fruit vegetables, peppers, aubergines, squashes, cucumbers, cougette/zuchini
I do pretty much all classico and doctor it up. love the mason jars, price is reasonable. I really want to try the trader joes ones though
What I used to do, back when I had no idea how to make my own pasta sauces from scratch, was take a jar of pasta sauce, read the ingredients, and just add more of them. So if the ingredients were "tomatoes, basil, garlic, salt, pepper", I'd just add more of those things to the sauce. I did the same thing with tinned soup.
I really need a collab of Babish and Matt Mitchell doing a ranking of things together.
The thing about Ragu is that it isnt a 'complete' sauce. Its a sauce that you add your own seasonings to. Although .. granted most people dont actually use it that way...
Might as well get a can of crushed or plum tomatoes then.
I like these ranking videos better when you do them blind
I typically modify all jar red sauces, I do like Prego basil and garlic for my jar base. For Alfredo jars I like Bertolli creamy basil which is kind of difficult to find here but stands out above all the rest.
Well well well it looks like I can live another week or so because this series has continued! Love the whole series, thanks for posting it!
I love the taste of machine learning
Love these comparison videos...because who has time to do this but you? So far spot on on the mac and cheese and ramen. I rely on you so keep up the comparisons!
"An irresponsible amount of Oregano" is such a wonderful way to describe a jarred pasta sauce, I'm never going to try that particular one but I immediately understood how it was flavoured, wonderful as always Babish
I had to go to Prego's website to double-check you on the no garlic in the tomato, basil, garlic sauce. You were 100 percent right and that baffles me; do they know this? How many people out there buy that sauce because they really like the garlic flavor of the sauce with no garlic in it?
"Basil-ier" - the epitome of culinary excellence. BTW love these vids
23:40 Missed opportunity to say "Same Babish time, same Babish channel"
No way the huts was 5$ that’s insane. I get it for 1.25$ where I am oh my goodness.
I went to check because i relied on Hunts in the bad ole' days, and the Hunts is $5 a can on Instacart but it's $1.50 at Target and Walmart
