Concentrated tomato flavor and a thick, smooth texture make this paste a common base for sauces, soups, stews, marinades, and braises; reviewers frequently note its consistent density, ease of blending into recipes, and usefulness for boosting savory depth without adding bulk, while packaging, portioning, and pricing often receive mixed comments.
Why it's not GERD friendly
- citric acid
- tomato paste
citric acid
Dietitian noteCitric acid, a common food additive, is a known GERD trigger due to its high acidity, which can directly irritate the esophagus. It can also weaken the lower esophageal sphincter, allowing stomach acid to flow back up and cause heartburn. Furthermore, even small amounts of citric acid can significantly increase stomach acid production, worsening reflux symptoms.
