what on earth would they make it out of?  isn't tomato sauce just tomatoes
and water?  you might try tomato juice, it's got more water and less
tomatoes, which means less carbs.

Depends on how many carbs you can afford.  Tomatoes contain carbs,
so some carbs are inevitable.  My current favorite is 6 grams per
half cup.  I think I could go a bit lower, but this stuff is too
yummy.  And since I usually consume a couple of Tbsps at a time,
I'm not too worried about it.

Hunt's brand so far in my area is lowest in carbs.

I think so too, unless some new LC brand has sneaked in.  I do
recall that when I was sick and seeing whether I could even make a
low-carb tomato soup, that was the lowest.

Unico pasta sauce has 6.2 carbs per half cup.
It tastes the same as tomato sauce, works in the same way and is the
lowest one I have found yet.

My favorite, Trader Joe's Prosciutto (and whatever), a creamy
sauce, has 6 g per half cup.  It is just wonderful, and something
I was not familiar with before.

ok, i'm confused.  i thought the OP meant plain tomato sauce.   you know,
just tomatoes, cooked for a long time, till it's a smooth sauce.  this
sounds more like a prepared pasta sauce.

which is the question about?

You may well be right.  Threads drift--esp. when you are not
seeing the original post.

I have several varieties of DeLallo brand sauce with 3gm net per half cup.
Delallo  imports their products from Italy. I find all of their products to
be exceptional and prices are reasonable.  Search through the entire pasta
sauce section of your supermarket. I have seen other brands is similar carb
count.
