"Very tomatoey smell," Gail said.

Among the comments about the new no-heat brand were: "Too bland," "too tomatoey" and "tastes like ketchup."

Osso buco, a perennial special at Mulino's, was too tomatoey, and the underlying risotto was cooked past the point of perfection.

We also gave top honors to Amish Paste for being full-bodied and rich, and Anna's Russian, yielding perhaps the most tomatoey flavored stew of the lot and the most intensely red one.
