About this product
Unico Tomato Paste is a 156 mL can of tomato paste with a single declared ingredient, tomatoes, and the front carries "100% Pure" and a Product of Canada roundel.[2] Unico, a Toronto brand of Mediterranean-style foods founded in 1917, has belonged to Sun-Brite Foods Inc. since 1997.[3] Sun-Brite is based in southwestern Ontario and was Canada's largest tomato processor as of 2016.[4] Unico lists the paste in 156 mL and 369 mL sizes.[5] The current bilingual label gives 20 Calories, 0 mg sodium and 300 mg potassium per 2 tablespoons (30 mL).[2] An Ontario grocer lists the 156 mL can at CAD 1.49.[1]
More about this product
The barcode has been in use at least since 2008, when the earlier Barcodepedia listed "UNICO Tomato Paste" in a 5-1/2 fl oz can.[6] A label photographed in 2020 showed an older Nutrition Facts layout with 20 mg sodium and 280 mg potassium per 30 mL.[7] Unico's own product page still shows that panel.[5]

Commisso's Fresh Foods (Ontario) lists "Unico Tomato Paste, 156 ml" through Instacart at CAD 1.49 without printing a barcode. The name and net content match this can; Unico sells no other 156 mL tomato paste except the Italian Herbs variety, which is named differently.
A listing is evidence that this barcode is sold there, on that date; a price is what that listing showed, not a recommended price.

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.
- Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
- Context: 2 / 3 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
- Label photographs: 0 / 2 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
- Bilingual Canadian label, current Nutrition Facts layout (photographed 2026-04-13): nutrient evidence: 13 / 13 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
- Bilingual Canadian label, earlier Nutrition Facts layout (photographed 2020-02-16): nutrient evidence: 11 / 11 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
- relationships · unknown: No source names the plant that packs this can. Sun-Brite processes tomatoes in Ruthven/Kingsville, Ontario, but nothing ties this article to that plant, so no manufactured_by edge is recorded.
- packaging · unknown: The "prepared for" block on the side is only partly in frame. The full company name and address need a photo of that side.
- ingredients · unknown: An ingredients photo uploaded 2024-05-11 (imgid 3) shows the same "Tomatoes. / Tomates." box, but that photo cannot be matched to either label generation.
- nutrition · schema_gap: Vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium and iron are printed only as % Daily Value on the earlier panel, and the schema has no field for a % DV without an amount.
- markets · not_researched: Metro and Food Basics list the article with the UPC in the URL, but both pages refused server and direct fetches (HTTP 403), so no retailer page printing the barcode was read.
- evidence · stale: Evidence was observed over a year ago; check for newer labels. Historical evidence remains valid.
- schema · schema_gap: Review and assign legacy facts to coherent observations.
- ingredients · not_researched: Ingredient statement or sourced exemption not recorded.
- ingredients · not_researched: Ingredient statement or sourced exemption not recorded.
