I get like 2/3rds of the way down and then have force myself to eat more. Plus its so hard to get the spoon down there because the jar is so tall.

Pour it? Idk, never spooned sauce out of a jar before. But I suppose if you are prepping single portions of pasta and then spooning sauce over it, it could make sense. I usually cook pasta in large quantities.

Or just use a spatula,

Simple solution: make your own. You can make exactly as much as you want, and it's 3x as good as that jarred slop.

You can make alfredo with only grated parmesan and pasta water. The parmesan dissolves in the hot water and the starch that leached out the pasta thickens the sauce. The parmesan has to be grated on a microplane grater so that it is fine enough to dissolve or you will end up with stringy glop.

Add pepper and that's essentially cacio e pepe. Not really alfredo sauce though.

Scoop half into a glass, dilute with equal parts carbonated water.

Second half is hard to scoop out so just put the water straight in the jar and shake it up.

That's actually the traditional Italian way to make alfredo sauce, but also with butter. Melt the butter, then add the cheese and pasta along with a little pasta water, adding more pasta water as needed to make it a sauce. The Americanized Alfredo adds in the cream, garlic, and other spices.

American version is way better.

This is kinda gross, won't it dilute the flavour? You don't add water to yogurt.

You can do it with a regular grater (just use the smaller sized holes). What makes it stringy glop is the temperature of the water. Can't be too hot.

Wait your just eating it out of the jar? No pasta or anything? Dude that is kinda gross. That's a normal sized jar btw. That one jar can feed a whole family. Maybe you need to portion it out in smaller containers. Or you know put that shit on pasta with some chicken

It's a southern thing, eating condiments with a spoon, other examples are mayo and chili without beans.

Just a little. Just enough to swirl it out.
Not enough to really dilute it.

I've made it before.
I eat well, so I can eat whatever I want whenever.
But holy shit, it's stunning how unhealthy Alfredo Sauce is.
