Has anyone seen this on the BBC this morning? www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-36051333

"The firm behind Dolmio pasta sauces and Uncle Ben's rice says some products should only be consumed once a week due to high salt, sugar or fat content."

I tend to make my own sauces, but I must admit to using a Dolmio jar when we're short for time. There must be lots of people who use them on a regular basis.

100% with Deeda on this, just make your own it's dead easy and you know what's in it. Mars, don't touch the stuff so it's not a problem with me.
