San Marzano Tomatoes, a Test

I am on the San Marzano tomato bandwagon! Honestly these tomatoes are what make peoples food taste that much better. Sauces, salsa whatever it is these tomatoes make it wonderful. I did a bit of a comparison yesterday while making salsa. I had two cans of San Marzano tomatoes, one brand was Cento, the other was Liuzzi. The Cento brand was much better than the Liuzzi brand. Cento had nice whole tomatoes, firm and not falling apart. The Liuzzi tomatoes where not whole, they were not firm and basically were falling apart.

I did take a picture, of the two side by side in my strainer. It is hard to tell the difference because the tomatoes are chopped up. The tomatoes on the left are the Liuzzi, the tomatoes to the right are the Cento brand. I should have taken the picture when the tomatoes were still whole, but I didn't realize how much better the Cento tomatoes were until I opened that can.
