Marinara Pasta Sauce, 25.5 OZ
What You Should Know
You'd find this jar on the pasta sauce aisle or in a weeknight pantry — a go-to for quick spaghetti, baked pasta, or a simple marinara base. It gives a comforting, rustic, slightly nostalgic vibe of homemade sauce while being convenient. The ingredient list (whole peeled tomatoes, olive oil, salt, herbs) and canning imply heating and preservation that produce a saucy, slightly chunky texture and point to a processed tomato product rather than an ultra‑processed formulation.

Ultra-Processing Assessment
Processed Food
Why this score?
Simple, recognizable ingredients (whole tomatoes, olive oil, herbs, salt) and canning indicate a processed food preserved by heat and added oil/salt rather than an industrially formulated ultra-processed product; the small use of naturally derived citric acid is a minor additive but does not push it into NOVA 4.
