Watch out for
Maltese sausage is typically binder-free, but always confirm no hidden fillers. Tomatoes contain natural sugars; request fresh, simply sautéed tomatoes without added sugar or sauces that might contain them. A restaurant might caramelize onions (though not listed in my ingredients, it's a possibility) or use pre-made tomato sauces with added sugar.
