Cento Certified San Marzano whole peeled tomatoes are prized for pizza sauce, pasta sauce, and simple Neapolitan style pies, with a fresh flavor that stands out enough to replace more complicated sauces. The cans also include a Find My Field code that traces the farm in Italy, adding a nice provenance touch. The main drawback is shipping damage, since dented cans show up often enough that inspection on arrival matters. Minor dents are usually treated as cosmetic if the can is intact, but seam or edge dents raise safety concerns.

Common Questions (5)

  • Dented cans are common with this Amazon shipment, and some orders have arrived with multiple unusable cans. It's smart to open the case right away and inspect everything so you can request a refund or replacement if needed.

  • A dent alone usually does not hurt the contents if the can is not leaking and the ends are not puffed out. Dents on seams or edges are the bigger concern because they can create air leaks, so those are the ones to discard.

  • The deal has been bought for as low as $11.76 in October, and another shopper found the same 6-pack elsewhere showing $27. Some buyers also note that part of the cost is shipping tomatoes from Italy, so the value depends on whether you want imported San Marzano tomatoes specifically.

  • They're especially popular for pizza sauce and pasta sauce. A simple Neapolitan-style approach is to hand-crush them, remove the heavy skin and ends, then add salt, pepper, and basil.

  • Yes. Each can includes a Find My Field code that can be used to look up the actual farm in Italy, with an interactive map-style zoom view. Some 2025 codes starting with G are still integrating, but older codes have worked successfully.

How are dented cans making the contents inside unusable?
It's a bit of a leftover thought process of many years ago. Years ago it could easily compromise the integrity of the can and contents. It's not as big of an issue these days as minor dents are not real issue in most cases. It's more a visual thing these days.

If you are not a canned tomato snob, try these which I find way better tasting: https://www.walmart.com/ip/better...om=/search

You will definitely get dented cans. So just order extra cases. Amazon will refund you for all the dented cans. No questions asked.

How are these compared to Tuttorosso? I've been using Tuttorosso for years, and just restocked during the shoprite can-can sale (12 cans for $10)

Tuttorosso doesnt make San Marzano tomatoes, they make San Marzano "style" tomatoes. and they cost more than this at my store.
