Diana Sauce Gourmet Original Barbecue Sauce
Sugars sit first on this label. The 500 ml bottle lists glucose-fructose, molasses, and maltodextrin ahead of water and tomato paste.
Kraft Heinz puts "Proudly made in Canada" on the Diana Sauce brand page and names no city. The parent organization on that page is Kraft Heinz, with a mailbox in El Paso, Texas.
A 30 ml serving carries 13 g of sugar and 250 mg of sodium. Barley vinegar, mustard, anchovies, and soy are the allergen flags. Narcity picked this bottle off a Loblaws shelf on 21 December 2023.

Our Canadian score
Some Canadian ties
Company’s own label claim: “Proudly made in Canada”
Partly. This Original sauce comes from a brand Kraft Heinz says is made in Canada, and Kraft Heinz is American. The label never says where the tomato paste or the sugar was grown.
Score breakdown (60% evidenced, medium confidence)
“Proudly made in Canada, Diana gives chicken, pork, beef, or veggies the gourmet treatment.”
“Brand Diana Sauce has parentOrganization Kraft Heinz, addressed in El Paso, Texas, United States.”
This score is our own read of publicly available evidence, not a regulatory finding. It is not a CFIA or Competition Bureau origin determination, and it is not the same as the "Product of Canada" or "Made in Canada" claims a manufacturer prints on a label. Check the package if you need the official claim. How we score

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Diana Sauce Gourmet Original made in Canada?
The Diana brand page claims the sauce is produced in Canada and never names a town. Kraft Heinz, a US company, is the owner, so the bottle is only partly a Canadian story.
Who owns Diana Sauce Gourmet Original?
Kraft Heinz owns it. The Canadian Diana page sets that company as the parent organization, and the address on the record is in Texas.
Is Diana Sauce Gourmet Original gluten-free?
No. The vinegar is barley vinegar, and barley contains gluten. Treat this sauce as a gluten source.
Does Diana Sauce Gourmet Original contain fish?
Yes. Anchovies show up in the seasonings. Soy and mustard are on the same allergen line.
How do you store Diana Sauce Gourmet Original?
The Kraft Heinz product page says to refrigerate the bottle once it is open. It does not print a use-by window for the fridge.
