What You Should Know

You'd spot this 10 oz jar in the pasta sauce aisle or reach for it during a grocery run when you want a quick, slightly elevated weeknight dinner—think creamy vodka penne for two. It reads indulgent and comforting with a silky texture from real cream and olive oil; the short, recognizable ingredient list and simple jarred processing suggest a processed ready-to-use sauce rather than a highly industrial ultra-processed product.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made from whole, recognizable ingredients (tomatoes, cream, vodka, olive oil) and preserved/heat-treated and jarred for convenience without obvious industrial additives or fractionated ingredients; this fits NOVA group 3 (processed) rather than group 4 ultra-processed.
