Catelli Garden Select Fine Herbs Pasta Sauce
Tomato puree leads this Fine Herbs jar, not water. The tomato and basil sibling starts with water. That swap is the clearest difference on the two Kraft Heinz pages.
After puree come water, sugar, salt and vegetable oil, then carrots, celery, onion, garlic and bell peppers. Herbs stay unnamed. Citric acid is the acidulant.
Kraft Heinz still hosts the page. The sauce brand went to Heinz in the 2001 Borden buy. Do not read it as Barilla pasta.
No serving size appears. No city appears either. The recipe is the only hard fact on the sheet.
