It's short for 'passata di pomodoro' or as we say, tomato puree. The European type is usually pure with no added sugar. I buy bottles of the Italian passata more cheaply than the Japanese tomato puree and it tastes a heck of a lot better too! Same with the canned diced tomatoes. 89 yen for a can of DiVella Pomodori de Cubetti compared with 139 yen for a can of locally made Kagome.
