Is All Pasta Sauce Vegan?
Not all pasta sauce brands are vegan. Many store-bought pasta sauces contain multiple animal products, most of which are dairy products.
Be on the lookout for pasta sauces that contain milk, but also be careful about other animal products that are not listed under an allergy warning, like meat flavorings.
Luckily, many spaghetti sauce brands have vegan options even if all of their selections are not plant-based. Check out the list below to find many vegan pasta sauce brands. I've also included varieties that are not vegan so you can be sure to stay away from them.
This guide is for informational purposes only. All ingredients are subject to change, so be sure to always read ingredient labels before purchasing and contact manufacturers with any questions.
Like pasta sauce, not all pasta brands are vegan. To be sure you pair your plant-based sauce with vegan noodles, check out my vegan pasta brands guide!

Francesco Rinaldi
Another popular pasta sauce brand, Francesco Rinaldi has both vegan and non-vegan varieties. But these are not labeled on the package, so you have to read the ingredients.
Because sugar is not always vegan but is plant-based, Francesco Rinaldi products containing sugar will have an asterisk (*) next to them.
Where to Buy: You can buy Francesco Rinaldi products online at Amazon or at most major retailers.
