That's so true. I always try to replicate my Moms but it just never tastes the same. It doesn't help that she doesnt have a "recipe" she just kinda says "a couple glugs of olive oil, throw in a pinch of sugar...etc." I'm always on the phone yelling at her "Whats a glug? whats a pinch?!@?@?@?" Plus my grandmother grows her own tomatoes and gives them to the family. I don't live near there so mine are store bought. That makes a big difference.
