I wasn't too impressed with this tomato sauce. It was a bit too watery and didn't have much flavor.

This sauce was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more herbs and spices next time.

This tomato sauce was a bit too acidic for my taste, even after adding a bit of sugar. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
