Best flavor of the San Marzano tomato brands. Very little acid and you can saute the whole tomatoes down with salt, garlic and good olive oil and walk away. I do this at least once a week for dinner in about 20 mins with some Italian sausage over linguini. MANGIA!

The absolute best canned tomatoes are definetely Pomi available at most stores including Fresh Market and any San Marzano tomato is a very, very close second. I have a couple of Italian business associates who visit often and they introduced me to both brands and were suprised to find them here in most stores they visited.
