I saw this when I went to get some tomato puree from the Italian Deli. The girl said they only had tomato sauce wtf?

<p>Blast! I hope it reopens soon as I'm planning on popping in there on the way back from work for some dinner ingredients. Oh and I hope everyone's ok! NappyFox - I bet the sauce was about 3 quid? Well pricey in there!</p>

At least you won't be getting tomato puree from tomatoes grown on land polluted with toxic chemicals by the mafia......

Haha too true!

Is that what the Italian place sells? Will steer clear!

No no no no no.......@miss annie. The whole point is that in Italian Farmers the tomato sauce should be properly sourced, probably organic and perfectly safe to eat. All the food in there is (so they claim).<div><br></div><div>In most shops and supermarkets (even in Italy) the tinned tomatoes and tomato sauce is often just labelled 'produce of Italy' and you can't tell from where - so you never know if you're getting tomatoes grown in Campania or Calabria where the Camorra have been dumping toxic waste. (Gomorrah, remember?) </div><div><br></div><div>Some of my Italian friends refer darkly to 'certain well-known brands' of tinned tomatoes that they say you might want to avoid. >>>>Scary<<<<< (I've never bothered to find out which, life's too short, but just pointing this out......).</div><div><br></div><div>That's one reason the food in Italian Farmers is so expensive.</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://motherboard.vice.com/blog/the-home-of-olive-oil-and-mozzarella-is-still-the-mafias-toxic-waste-land">http://motherboard.vice.com/blog/the-home-of-olive-oil-and-mozzarella-is-still-the-mafias-toxic-waste-land</a><br></div>;

News just in: it has just been confirmed to me that the Tesco fire happened 'out the back' and was caused by a faulty cable. I spend a lot of time down there obvs so I'm glad it was nothing too serious

Howdy, Stranger!
