Two California residents are suing Cento Fine Foods, alleging the company engaged in “tomato fraud” by claiming that the tomatoes in one of its canned products are the authentic “San Marzano Certified” version from Italy. The plaintiffs claim that Cento’s “Certified San Marzano” labeling is “false, misleading and unfair,” alleging that the product lacks an official designation from an Italian tomato authority. Cento’s tomatoes also lack the quality and taste of real fruit, the plaintiffs said in the lawsuit. In “the way Champagne can only be produced in the Champagne region of France, real San Marzanos can only be grown, processed and canned in a specific region of Italy,” the lawsuit states. New Jersey-based Cento Fine Foods did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
