I noticed this after my latest SaveOn order and was going to post pictures, but here’s a whole article about it.

Not only is the jar smaller, but they have added more water - aqua-flation!

    Every time you find a soft tomato, put it in a bag in the freezer. When you have enough, make your own sauce and freeze that.

      A bunch of mine failed to ripen before the weather guy cold so I had a big harvest of green tomatoes.

      Found a recipe online for a green tomato relish, picked up a bunch of jars, and figured I’d give it a shot. I figured on my first go it wouldn’t really turn out, but we’re several jars in and even my kids - who actually don’t like (red) tomatoes - specifically ask for it with burgers etc.

      Damn, now I’ve got to buy a $200 freezer to save $10 on spaghetti sauce.

      Do you know how many tomatos are required to make sauce? SO MANY

        Yeah. I’ve done it. Many times. One ziploc freezer bag style bag will make you a couple jars.

        Sorry you can’t afford a fridge/freezer combo, bro. It must be tough on an all-ramen diet.
