Unico Original Pasta Sauce 680 mL: version 1

Saved 2026-09-14 02:41 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added Unico Original Pasta Sauce 680 mL (GTIN 00067800001811), from the wanted list (2007 page "unico original pasta sauce"). - Identity and label: ingredients, the bilingual per 125 mL Nutrition Facts panel, "Prepared in Canada" roundel and COR kosher mark, all read from Open Food Facts uploads 3, 4 and 5 (2022-09-20; CC BY-SA 3.0). - Maker: Unico's catalogue page for "Pasta Sauce - Original, available in 680ml" (unico.ca products.php?id=26&catid=17) gives a matching table. Its saturated fat is 0.1 g; the can prints 0.5 g, more than its 0.4 g total fat. Both panels are kept, with the can's figure marked disputed. The 2.84 L food-service page (id=109) is a different size and nutrition table and is cited only as context. - Market: CA sourced from South Asian Central (Mississauga, ON), whose listing prints SKU Code 067800001811 at CAD 3.89 on sale (was 4.58), out of stock on 2026-09-14. - Relations: gs1_prefix_owner company/unico (prefix 0067800 stated on the stub; cites the stub's source) and brand_owner_at_sale company/unico. No manufactured_by, because no photo shows the prepared-for block (recorded in research gaps). - Not recorded: Open Food Facts tags organic and Canada Organic, but no photographed surface shows either mark. The retailer's SEO text ("no artificial flavours or preservatives") was not used. - No new stubs: brand/unico, company/unico and every ingredient key already exist.. Current is v3.

137145## About <!--about-->
138146Unico Original Pasta Sauce is a tomato pasta sauce in a 680 mL can, sold in Canada under the Unico brand of Concord, Ontario, and labelled "Thick & Tasty".[^label][^unico-site] The recipe is based on crushed tomatoes, with sugar, salt, modified corn starch, dehydrated onion, spices, olive oil, red bell pepper powder and parsley, and the front carries a "Prepared in Canada" roundel and a COR kosher mark.[^label] Unico lists the same sauce in its catalogue at 680 ml and also sells a 2.84 L food-service size with a different nutrition table.[^unico-product][^unico-foodservice] A Mississauga online grocer lists this barcode.[^sac] The can prints 0.5 g of saturated fat per half cup, more than the 0.4 g total fat. The maker's own table gives 0.1 g, so the can's figure looks like a printing error.[^unico-product]

## About <!--about-->
Unico Original Pasta Sauce is a tomato pasta sauce in a 680 mL can, sold in Canada under the Unico brand of Concord, Ontario, and labelled "Thick & Tasty".[^label][^unico-site] The recipe is based on crushed tomatoes, with sugar, salt, modified corn starch, dehydrated onion, spices, olive oil, red bell pepper powder and parsley, and the front carries a "Prepared in Canada" roundel and a COR kosher mark.[^label] Unico lists the same sauce in its catalogue at 680 ml and also sells a 2.84 L food-service size with a different nutrition table.[^unico-product][^unico-foodservice] A Mississauga online grocer lists this barcode.[^sac] The can prints 0.5 g of saturated fat per half cup, more than the 0.4 g total fat. The maker's own table gives 0.1 g, so the can's figure looks like a printing error.[^unico-product]

The same 680 mL "Thick & Tasty" can appeared on Barcodepedia as early as 2007.[^archive]
