Canned Tomato Tasting
with Al Sicherman and Lynne
February 6, 1999

It's no secret that tomatoes are a critical part of Lynne's cooking and when she can't get her preferred fresh organic varieties she turns to a select few canned brands. Al was curious about her favorites and brought some into the studio for an on-air tasting. Here's the results:

Brands tasted were:
Contadina Diced Tomatoes – 15-ounce can at 81 cents
Muir Glen Organic Diced Tomatoes – 28-ounce can at $1.95
Hunt's Choice Cut Diced Tomatoes – 15-ounce can at 97 cents

The winner? While all three would be Lynne's top picks for canned tomatoes, her number one favorite is Hunt's.
