 Love Pomi!Jan 15, 2011
By JenniferN
"Jen"
Love this product! =) I use it in place of canned tomatoes since it's BPA free & have never had a complaint. I only wish that Amazon did prime shipping on the chopped tomatoes as well!

Pomi Great--Shipping Packaging Poorly DoneApr 05, 2011
By Izaak Walton
The Pomi tomatoes are a fine product, and worth the extra expense. Their taste and texture are far superior to those of canned tomatoes, and frankly, most fresh tomatoes most of the year.
My complaint is that the Pomi cartons were sloppily and loosely packed, and thus vulnerable to damage during shipping. They were packed more as common household goods rather than food. If the shipping box had been more banged up than it was, one or more of the Pomi cartons could have been ruptured. This is an easy problem to fix; I hope Amazon takes note of it, and takes steps to prevent its happening again.

great tomatoes, need to freeze someFeb 15, 2011
By Margaret Drake
"Maggie D."
I bought these tomatoes after I read an article about canned tomatoes that said they were bad for you; the acidity leaches stuff out of the tin. These are great tomatoes; not quite as choppy, more pureey than I am used to, but that's OK. At 26+ oz, I find I need to freeze about 1/2 of the container for most recipes.

The best: BPA free, pesticide free, no GMOOct 04, 2011
By miss e tait
The quality cannot be beat--the ingredients are 100% tomatoes. No sugar, salt or citric acid and BPA free packaging (for those in doubt, read up, check the Pomi website, etc). They come from Italy, which requires some air miles but they are grown pesticide free, GMO free and the packaging consists of 75% renewable resources. Sure, USDA organic cert would be nice, but personally I'll take EU standards over that. These tomatoes taste fresh and delicious and are so easy to store.

Great product and BPA-FREE!Jan 02, 2012
By kalyson
I had been using Muir Glen Organic whole/diced tomatoes, but after having had cancer I read a lot of research publications indicating that BPA's estrogen mimicking effects can be quite dangerous. BPA found in cans with acidic foods are some of the worst since the chemical is leached out even more. The same is true of plastic containers with BPA -- acid, heat or surface abrasion lead to much greater leaching into the food.
Although Muir Glen is promising to get rid of BPA in their can liners, they are replacing it with some unspecified 'vinyl-based substitute'. If you want to get their cans without BPA, look for a use-by date of around the summer of 2013. [This info is per a conversation with their customer service representative.]
I had heard about Pomi Tetra-pak products before -- Mario Batali and other foodies/chefs have recommended them so I thought I would give them a try.
The tomatoes are naturally grown in Italy without pesticides and have no salt added. I used them to create a wonderful marinara sauce. They taste great and I am very happy with the quality.
