Apparently most canned 'San Marzano' tomatoes are fake.
must be made in the Chianti region of the country to be labeled as such, San Marzano tomatoes are special plum tomatoes that must be grown in Agro Sarnese-Nocerino. When they are canned, they come with a DOP emblem on the label, marking their authenticity.
How are these fraudulent fruits making into the U.S. marketplace, you ask? Even importers are scratching their heads. "We see all these crazy, sketchy things,". "Italians will send tomatoes to the U.S. with no label, and companies here will put a DOP label on. ...You can't put a USDA Organic label on anything, but DOP is not regulated here.
That's a bummer. But, you can protect yourself from San Marzano tomato fraud with this simple trick: real San Marzano tomatoes are sold whole or in fillets, and they're always peeled and canned, Roithmayr said. So, if you spot a can of diced San Marzano tomatoes, you're looking at a fake. Also, some brands even flat-out say the're not from Italy in the label's fine print.
