Russo brand contains: Tomatoes (99.5%), Salt.

Interestingly, on the nutritional panel, it has 20.4g/100g under Sugars. Why would this be so?

The lowest tomato paste I have found is Coles $mart buy which has 8.5g sugar per 100g.

I picked up a jar of Tomato Paste at a large gourmet fruit/deli shop called Zone Fresh in Brisbane. It is Aegean brand and it is Sugars 2.4g/100g. This is the lowest I have ever seen and lists only tomato paste and salt. Product of Hungary. Imported by Aegean Import/Export Capalaba, Brisbane. Sarah.
