Is that "added sugar", as in list of ingredients? Or on the nutritional
part of the label?

Ripe tomatoes have quite a bit of sugar in them, so even if none is
added, it will show on the nutrition label. They are also usually acid
(which doesn't have to be shown on the nutrition label), so they don't
taste very sweet.
