Notable facts
- Uses organic complementary ingredients with wild-caught Iberian Atlantic sardines; fish precooked before canning, small-scale artisanal.
- Current 100 Mistérios material lists Maria Organic among its owned/produced brands.
- Source conflict: Maria's legacy copy says 'we are not producers; we market the preserves,' while newer 100 Mistérios material lists it as owned/produced — the factory relationship is treated as current pending can-code confirmation.
