According to a 1977 study published by the American Society for Horticultural Science, paste tomatoes like San Marzanos were found to be the least acidic on average compared to other varieties. This confirms the long-held belief among chefs and home cooks: San Marzano tomatoes are less acidic, which contributes to their naturally sweeter, more balanced flavor.

According to the Celiac Disease Foundation, fruits and vegetables are naturally free of gluten. This means that in their raw, unprocessed form, San Marzano tomatoes are naturally gluten-free. However, when purchasing canned varieties, people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity must be vigilant about potential cross-contamination and added ingredients.
