Great fresh taste for a canned sauce. Thank you.

I had Hunts as a kid and I'm 79. I recently bought it again to make spaghetti sauce from scratch and both my family and I were delighted. Of course, as the COOK in my house, I add spices and stewed tomatoes to it to suit my taste and the tastes of my family. I was delighted to taste tihs beautifully blended tomato sauce and for the first time in years, had requests for MORE MOM. Those that don't like it, probably expect miracles from plain sauce without spices. YOU HAVE TO ADD YOUR OWN SPICES TO YOUR TASTE. Hunts can't do it for you. It took me back to my childhood, and I'm thankful it's all natural with no HFC or additives.THANK YOU HUNTS!

This is the Sauce to Use For Pasta.

I'm giving this sauce five stars! I made my homemade spaghetti with meat sauce using Hunts. My whole family loved my spaghetti with meat sauce. I would recommend Hunts Tomato Sauce if you're looking for a non-acidic tomato sauce and I even went back for seconds. My past sauces never came out as good as this one. I won't be going back to a store brand sauce. Thank you Hunts. Keep up the good work.

Tastes like formaldehyde

It tasted so bad I had to rinse the sauce off of my spaghetti, I couldn't eat it. It tastes like chemicals with a side of tomato sauce, I wish I was exaggerating. I can't afford to throw out food, I just ate some moldy garlic bread, but I can't bring myself to eat this sauce.

Go back to the original recipe if tomatoes & salt!

I wish that I had kept a can of this sauce when it listed the ingredients as “tomatoes & salt”. I spoke with customer service, & the rep said that Hunt's is trying to be more ‘transparent' & list all the ingredients instead of just “spices”. IT NEVER SAID SPICES! My family had been buying this product since it was marketed. GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL RECIPE! Why would anyone want a tomato sauce to which someone has already added spices???

Change in sauce recipe

I am not sure what Hunts has done to their tomato sauce, but I have used it for 40 years and something recently changed and it tastes terrible! I can't quite put my finger on it, but it is definitely different and effects my chili recipe, my spaghetti sauce recipe . . . They all taste completely different. After 40 years, I will be trying new sauces and trying to find a replacement. I am so sad, as this sauce is the one my Mother used and I loved it up until recently. I hope you change it back to the old recipe. It really is not good anymore. A very loyal, but disappointed customer.

What Did You Do To Your Sauce? It's Horrible!!!!

I have been using this to make amazing spaghetti sauce for years and years. All of a sudden, it is just absolutely disgusting! What happened?! Not only is the taste disgusting, but the smell is even worse! I have used Hunts tomato sauce and Hunts tomatoes for years and the tomatoes are horrible now as well. Now I have to find another brand to use. (Here's a tip Hunts.....when you are making changes to a good thing, be sure the changes you are making are to make it even better)

Change in tomato sauce

I have been using Hunts tomato sauce for over 50 years and it was always good. Trust me when I tell you I use it a lot. I'd say in the last year or so it has been terrible. There is something about the taste and last night the tomatoes I used weren't even red they were a reddish brown. I will be trying other brands to find a better one. I'm sorry you had to change it.

Not going to purchase

This tomato sauce is on sale by the case at a local supermarket and I had it on my grocery list. I came to the website to check the ingredients. After reading the reviews about how it has changed and how awful it is now, I'll be buying a different brand, even if slightly more expensive. Too bad!

Type of tomatoes in can different now????

What happened to Hunts Tomato Sauce? I buy the no salt version for several years now and it was disgusting that we couldn't even to stand to eat the family dinner of spaghetti that night. I even made it again the next week and it still tasted horrible! We have used it for 40 years and I have used the standard salted version too,so I bought some of that and it TOO tasted horrible. My conclusion is Hunts must have changed the TYPE of tomatoes they are using in the sauce. Just lost a long time customer..... I hope more stop buying it and then Hunts will reconsider the tomatoes that taste good back in their cans. We eat spaghett weekly and I use tomato sauce in my soups too. This is terrible so everyone stop buying this until they get the tomatoes they use to use or whatever fixed!
