Catelli Garden Select Tomato and Basil Pasta Sauce
Water is the first ingredient in this Garden Select jar, ahead of tomato paste. Sugar, vegetable oil and salt follow, then a chopped list of carrots, celery, onions, garlic and bell peppers.
Kraft Heinz publishes the jar under the Catelli name. Heinz bought the Catelli sauce brands from Borden in 2001. Barilla's later deal was the dry pasta and the Montreal plant, not this sauce.
The page stops at citric acid. It does not give a jar size, a calorie count, or a city. Herbs are named only as herbs, not as a basil percentage.
That thin page is the whole public recipe. Treat the plant as unknown until Kraft Heinz prints one.
Product Highlights
- •Water listed before tomato paste

Imported
This basil Garden Select jar is American-owned sauce. Kraft Heinz prints the recipe and leaves the factory blank. Barilla's pasta box is a different product.
Score breakdown (20% evidenced, low confidence)
“In addition, Heinz now has the Catelli, Gattuso (under license) and Bravo pasta sauce brands, which are all Canadian favorites.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Catelli Garden Select Tomato and Basil made in Canada?
Not stated for this basil jar. The Kraft Heinz sheet is ingredients only. It never says prepared in Canada and never names a city.
Is this the same as Catelli pasta?
No. This jar is the Kraft Heinz sauce. Barilla bought the noodle business and the Quebec mill in 2021. That sale left the sauce behind.
What vegetables are in Catelli Garden Select Tomato and Basil?
Five chopped items follow the salt: carrot, celery, onion, garlic, pepper. Herbs and citric acid close the Kraft Heinz list.
Does Catelli Garden Select Tomato and Basil have cheese?
No cheese is on the ingredient list for Catelli Garden Select Tomato and Basil. The basil note is in the product name. The recipe line only says herbs.
Who sells Catelli Garden Select Tomato and Basil?
Kraft Heinz Canada. The product URL sits on kraftheinz.com under Catelli. Heinz said in 2001 that it had bought the Catelli sauce brand.
