Realistically, I'm not going to make a 170 km round trip drive to buy tomatoes. And like others have said, most tomatoes I've come across in Thailand are jut sut (tasteless). I haven't had a good tomato since my last trip to the US 18 years ago. Fresh tomatoes are out, and even if I could get them, cooking them down is more work than I'm interested in pursuing - hence - why I'm looking for quality canned tomatoes. I do like making and eating Italian sauces, but I imagine that I can get stocks that are closer to the Italian restaurant varieties that I got in the Italians areas of NW Washington State back in the day. There were some great Italian restaurants in Tacoma and Seattle back when I lived there. For those suggestion "Prego" and the like. Really - you gotta be kidding? Why not Chef Boyardee <gag>. Maybe back when I was young and in uni and both drunk and stoned. Maybe.
