Cento Certified San Marzano Whole Peeled Tomatoes – 28 oz (Pack of 6) with Basil

Authentic Italian flavor in a convenient can

Cento Certified San Marzano Whole Peeled Tomatoes are all about balance and consistency. Grown in the sun-soaked fields of the Sarnese Nocerino region in Italy, these tomatoes are hand-picked when fully ripe, then canned in a thick puree with fresh basil. The result is a sweet, rich aroma and a silky texture that can form the backbone of many dishes you love.

Quality is reinforced by third-party certification ensuring authenticity and standardization from field to can. The packaging reflects careful handling and proximity to the growing region, helping preserve the tomatoes' natural brightness and low acidity typical of San Marzano varieties.
