Common questions

Is Rao's Marinara healthy?

Rao's Marinara scores 96/100 on Tallow — our clean band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. Per serving it carries 1g fiber, 3g protein and 5g sugar. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Rao's Marinara?

Rao's Marinara lists 8 ingredients, starting with Italian Whole Peeled Tomatoes, Olive Oil, Onions, Salt and Garlic. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.
