Apple Sauce

The stuff in jars is universally disgusting-some sort of gloopy nondescript concoction.My fears were confirmed on one of the"whats in our food"type programmes-allsorts of artificial things to create the gloop.

Homemade=Cooking apples,sugar and a touch of water-nothing else.Delicious!!!

Yep, with you on that one.  I've never tried the jar stuff, but as it's so simple anyway, why bother?

Agree - the jar stuff is like babyfood.

When I was a kid, my Mum always used baby apple for sauce.

Not that I ever ate it with my roast pig as I prefer my savoury and sweet to be separate. I'd finish it off with a bit of top of the milk - hey I loved that, bloomin universal homogenisation means my kids have never had that pleasure  

A long way round of saying, when we have guests I do make it myself

That reminded me.If I was ill when I was small my mum used to treat me to a tin of heinz baby apple.She also used it for apple sauce.It was a bit bland but I don't think gloop had been invented then so it wasn't too bad.

One reason for making it myself is, for me, always that I can leave out the sugar!
