Hi Rhonda! Tomato sauce here is almost as you describe it. However it would
be "used" to make a pasta sauce not used as a pasta sauce. Tomato purée here
is just that: puréed tomatoes with no herbs or spices in it. Interesting and
fun to compare these things. I was _astonished_ to see on the Heinz AU site
the presence of canned flavored tuna! That is very different!
