Quality Product
This is a quality product and hard to find locally where I live so I had to order online. The product came fully intact so not sure why the lower reviews showing the product loose. All of my tubes were in a box like I would buy at the grocery store.I have used this product and the flavor is fantastic. I like that I can close it up properly and not waste like the cans of tomato paste. I have tried putting the canned paste in an airtight container but it always spoils before I can use the entire can.Highly recommend if you are looking for a quality product at a great price.

Excellent!
Great product! Love it. Just be sure when using to fry it in skillet 3-5 min, until it changes color. If you don’t it’ll taste tinny, if you do, it’ll taste sweet with depth of flavor!

So convenient
I love this product. I love the convenience. I love the quality of the paste. I love not buying a small tomato paste can using a small portion and never finding the rest in the freezer until I clean the freezer out! I add this to soups, pasta, rices, anything that needs a little tomato boost. I love having so many available tubes in my pantry. The price was great.

Perfect tomato flavor
This is very hard to find. I use this paste in most of my tomato sauces, marinades, and dips. Very little sweetness.

If you cook Italian, this is a must-have!
EXCELLENT product and value for the money (and taste). One tube is the equivalent to a small can of tomato paste, but sooooo much easier to store what you don’t use (store it in the fridge once opened). Actually ended up stashing a tube in each of the adults’ Xmas stocking.

The Best So Far
If there is a better paste I have not found it. This is just so convenient for adding a small amount of tomato to sauces and gravies. It stores well. The flavor is excellent. Cento has been a reliable brand for me for many years.
