Francesco's Hole in the Wall (cross-posted in Foods)

I just tried this pasta sauce last night (I got it in a bottle from the grocery store) and it's really good and only 35 calories per half cup. I got both the mushroom and the marinara, and so far have only tried the mushroom (with Fiber Gourmet Pasta - which makes it 145 calories for a really filling and tasty meal).

I guess Francesco's is a joint out in Northbrook (I don't tend to go out there unless I'm forced to), but I'd never heard of it. Has anyone else tried this sauce? I'd never seen it before (not that I'd checked really), but I got it from the Treasure Island on Clybourn.

The lable says it has (per 125g)

35 calories; 0.5g fat; 190mg sodium; 7g carbohydrates; 2g fiber; 2g protein; 15% A; 25% C; 4% Calcium; and 6% Iron - is this possible? It seems too good to be true.
