What You Should Know

You'd spot this jar in the pasta-and-sauces aisle or pull it from your pantry on a busy weeknight when you want a quick, familiar tomato sauce for pasta, pizza, or dipping. It feels wholesome and comforting — a simple, pantry-staple vibe — and the ingredient list and texture point to a processed but minimally handled product: whole tomatoes and a bit of puree, olive oil, salt and herbs with only a small preservative touch.
