Cranberry Sauce 101

To make home made cranberry sauce, you will need:

1 bag fresh Cranberries, they don't have to be ocean spray, this is just the picture the internet provided.

about 3 cups water, you want them to be about 1/4-1/2 inch covered (note: some will float)
1-2 cups white sugar (to taste)

Dump it all in a 2 quart sauce pan and boil the heck out of it, and in about 20 minutes you will have this:

SOOO yummy, way better than anything out of a can.
And as an added bonus, when you say "The cranberry sauce is homemade." it sounds like so much effort...
but was easier than making ramen. 
After making this, I believe that they must strain the berries from the juice and put one in a can called 'jellied' and the rest in a can called 'whole berry' because this is the perfection that neither of those products will ever be.
