One that is super good is Amy's Organic. It's also expensive.

The worst I have ever tried is Muir Glen. Has a horrid, off taste. Weird
because their salsa is good.

That being said, I'm not a big pasta lover so the appeal to me of pasta is
quick and cheap. Plain tomato sauce even works for me if I want a cheap and
quick meal.
