Which ones? Every single Prego variety at my local grocer has added sugar. It’s not good sauce
there might be inexpensive brands without added sugar but if they exist they aren’t available in my grocery store. The “store brand” at my local grocer is on the expensive side, like $8/jar, but it’s very good
My grocery store is within walking distance of my apartment, and i live in a very very car-centric region, so i’d much rather go there than drive to say a Costco
I guess it does depend a little bit on the grocery store. I’m more accustomed to seeing store brand price range comparable to Aldi, aka $1.50 for the bottom range for the varieties that have added sugar, and $2 and up for the “authentic” or organic varieties that don’t have it.
As for Prego, well I’m probably actually thinking of Ragu at the moment but they have “Simply” or “Kettle” or “Homemade” or authentic or organic styles that don’t have added sugar. Not sure remembering all the right names for them, but having sauce without added sugars something that people seek out a lot easier so it makes sense that brands try to varieties to accommodate that market niche.
There are varieties made with little or even no sugar.
I respect the DIY sauce game, but my point was that if you’re buying pre-made sauce it’s neither pricey nor necessarily loaded with sugar.
