If anyone's interested, ATK's taste tests:
Bertoli Tomato and Basil won their jarred pasta sauce taste test: This sauce had a "good balance of flavors" and "a nice chunky texture." Because it wasn't overseasoned with dried herbs, tasters thought this sauce tasted "the most like fresh-cooked tomatoes."
Victoria's Marinara won their "premium" jarred pasta sauce taste test: This “authentic”-tasting sauce earned praise for “robust, continuing flavor” comparable to “homemade.” Medium-bodied, the sauce is made with imported Italian tomatoes and olive oil, as well as fresh onions, fresh garlic, and fresh basil. Its “nice, bright acidity” evoked fresh tomatoes, and the sauce was “restrained, rather than drowned in sugar.”
