We are always looking for lower sodium alternatives. I read the sodium content on containers first, then go to sugars and carbs, when browsing. We have been using Classico's Tomato and Basil sauce as a spaghetti sauce base for adding things like meat/meatballs, garlic, onion, spices, etc. The only thing available locally that is lower in sodium is Flora salt free which I have a hard time finding, lately.
The last time I made spaghetti, it was really spicy-hot. I had added some chili to it as a secret ingredient and had to confess to the diners that the chili must have been really hot. It was almost too spicy for us.
When I went to buy more Classico yesterday, I realized that the jar had an addition to the label: "New, Spicy Tomato and Basil." Whoa, I never buy spicy anything. I must have missed the label changes last time I shopped.
I ended up trying Classico's Fire Roasted Tomato and Garlic as a low sodium choice, instead. We actually like it better.
I did confess that it wasn't the chili, last time, that spiced things up too much. It was the inattention of the cook . . .

I too purchased the "New Spicy Tomato and Garlic sauce by accident. A bit spicy for me. Different taste.
I was mouth-breathing to cool it off after the first bite. What a way to ruin a perfectly good serving of Dreamfields, no?
Dreamfields good, yes.
