Why The Bear Season 2 Serves Up More Food Brands You Might Actually Use In Real Life
During Season 1 of “The Bear,” though, a very real food product was a huge part of the narrative — specifically, San Marzano tomatoes. There are a handful of companies that sell diced, crushed, or whole San Marzano tomatoes, but the designation also has its own brand name, and those particular cans are a huge key to the Season 1 finale of “The Bear,” where Carmy (Jeremy Allen White) notices something strange.
After taking over the sandwich shop run by his late brother Mikey (Jon Bernthal), Carmy spends his time trying to turn it into a dining destination, but he simply doesn’t have the capital… until the day where he starts opening cans of tomatoes. The cans are filled with San Marzano tomatoes at all, but cold hard cash; Mikey was hiding cash in them all along, and this discovery gives him literally everything he needs to open his own place in The Beef’s former spot.
