Cucina Antica Artisanal Cooking Sauce Secures Whole30 Certification

MOUNT KISCO, N.Y. — Cucina Antica, a family brand offering authentic Italian, artisan cooking sauces, is proud to have been named the first official cooking sauce of the Whole30 program as of May 7th. Select products from all three of the Cucina Antica Foods, Corp. brands, including Cucina Antica, Organico Bello and Monte Bene, will be adorned with the official Whole30 Approved label this summer. Shoppers can purchase Cucina Antica’s 25 oz. jars at Whole Foods nationally for an SRP of $7.99.

Whole30 has been changing lives since 2009, when Melissa Hartwig blogged about a 30-day life-changing dietary experiment she recently completed. Since then, millions of people have transformed their health, habits and relationship with food through the Whole30 program; eliminating cravings, improving energy and sleep, improving any number of medical symptoms, and losing weight healthfully and sustainably. The Whole30 Approved label is designed to let you know a product is 100% compliant with the Whole30 program and that the product has been properly vetted by the Whole30 team. The Whole30 team develops personal relationships with Whole30 Approved partners to assure that their products, core values, and missions align.

“We pride ourselves on using only quality, authentic Italian ingredients,” said Chef Neil Fusco, Owner of Cucina Antica. “The Whole30 program encapsulates what we value in our ingredients. We are thrilled to officially be the first Whole30 Approved cooking sauce on the market.”

Each of Cucina Antica’s artisanal products are made without artificial preservatives, added sugar or water, and are made with real Italian San Marzano tomatoes, as opposed to tomato paste. The cooking and pasta sauces feature imported Italian San Marzano tomatoes to achieve the true authenticity consumers have come to expect from the industry’s leading food brands. Consumers can expect this level of quality from each of Cucina Antica’s products, as each sauce is made using an artisanal production method. Those eating on the Whole30 program can officially enjoy flavorful, authentic Italian cuisine without compromising their lifestyles.
