Ketchup counts as a vegetable so why not:

My OB counts it. She even said that a piece of cheese pizza is a balanced meal. Love her!

How is this possible? What's the difference between a tomato and a box of tomatoes with no added salt or sugar?


The added ingredients. If you make your own with zero sugar it counts as a veggie, but canned? All the sugar and what not completely counter any benefit from the tomato.


I was asking about boxed tomatoes without added sugar/other additives. I don't use jarred sauce - I make my own using tomatoes from the box.
