    I get great value and best choice(?) and they beat the crap out of not only prego but some other higher end pasta sauces as well. Especially great value. I was super surprised by them. And they are like $1.50 vs $4-6 for the various prego and analogs. And I actually think the great value is better than most premiums in the ~$10 range. Carbone might be the one that is hands and fists above all others.

      Great Value is Walmart and I just won’t shop there. I can say I notice little difference (in a good way) between lower end brand names like Ragu or Prego and various store brands. I just don’t see the price difference as much though. Maybe a dollar’s difference. I’m still a store brand buyer, but I’m more price sensitive than taste sensitive on the question.

        You’re not wrong about avoiding Walmart as best you can. But I live in their home territory, so it’s that or Kroger, and Kroger donates big to trump and have a history of union hostility. So it’s really a push for me until a locally owned place pops up.
