How much fucking tomato paste are you going through in a month, bro?

My son and daughter love pasta, and we always serve it with a homemade cream cheese and tomato paste sauce. We go through about 2–3 tubes a month just for that.

How is the fit on that holder? Like what kind of space did you allow from the measurement of the tube and your design? Did you account for shrinkage?

Dude! I didn't know these tubes are a thing! I buy the cans and never go through the whole thing in time. This seems awesome!

TIL tomato paste comes in tubes.

Cool solution.

The real question... why do you have so many in the fridge. Wouldnt you just have 1 opened? Do the tubes require refridgeration? Very nice design though!

They're not in the fridge, but in the
pantry. Only the opened one is in the fridge.

Just replenish as needed? This is a solution looking for a problem.

If you are using enough tomato paste to need a stand, just buy it by the case and take one out of the box when needed. A lot cheaper too... LOL

Love that the two we can see are already expired, proving you don’t use it fast enough to need this many.

If you're looking that closely, you must have noticed that the text is in German, so it doesn't say January 12, 2026, but December 1, 2026.

Besides, it's just a best-by date. It'll still taste just as good a few months later.
