While on vacation last week, we decided to have quesadillas to use up some flour tortillas and the cheddar cheese in our cooler that was no longer cool. Using the cheese turned out to be a mistake, and we suffered mild food poisoning for a harsh twenty-four hours, but there was a silver lining to this meal. I found a great jar salsa.
We wanted some salsa to add to our quesadillas, so I stopped at a Walmart in Montana. I required a medium salsa that:
- didn’t have corn in it (gross)
- came in a squat wide-mouth jar so it would be easy to get to the salsa with our cheesy tortillas
- didn’t cost an arm and a leg (or even just a leg)
On a whim, I bought Newman’s Own Medium Salsa. It met all my requirements, and I figured it would taste okay.
Actually, it tastes amazing.
The salsa is chunky and smooth, and the heat is a low medium. The price is great, and even though I don’t care about the shape of the jar anymore, it’s a small enough amount for you to enjoy the salsa but not have it in your fridge for so long that it grows entities that might give you food poisoning. (I don’t recommend it.)
If you are looking for a great salsa this summer for your chips or a Mexican meal, I recommend Newman’s Own Medium Salsa. It’s a salsa that everyone will enjoy.
