    I add sugar when I make pasta sauces all the time, also to stews and stir fries. It’s a nice dimension.

      If you’re doing it yourself you’ve got control over how much you’re adding. It’s the pre made sauces they are the problem where they use it as a cheap way of masking how shit the tomatoes they’re using are.
