I like frontera salsa verde. I think jarred salsa verde is a thousand times better than jarred red salsa. Whole Foods has decent fresh pico de Gallo.

This is the way.

I found it so disapppiinting. The TJ version is much better.
Agree the herdez brand is a pretty good decent Mexican style.
I can’t find a red salsa jarred that I really love though.

Well yeah - it’s a DCUM thread on jarred salsa.

I used to like green mountain gringo, but didn't have it for a few years and now its way too vinegary for me. And I LOVE vinegar.

Tostitos is fine.

I really like Pioneer Woman's recipe for restaurant salsa (not pico).

I have not found any jarred salsas that really blow me away. Herdez is OK, not amazing.

It's a little more work but when I want a salsa fix I generally just dump half an onion, a tomato, a jalapeno, some garlic, cilantro, a dash of red wine vinegar, and a can of chipotles in adobo in my blender and blend it all up. If you want it to be really good put everything under the broiler for a few minutes beforehand. If you like a chunkier salsa you can leave the tomato and onion out and chop them by hand, but putting everything in the blender saves you a few minutes.

Jack's salsa is my jam.

Jacks from Costco.

the problem with jarred salsa is the things you need to do to it to enhance shelf life. It will never be anything more than just OK for those reasons

I think the name of the one we use is "Jack's salsa" or something. You can get it at safeways or Harris Teeter. Less vinegary than the others.

By restaurant sals, do you mean the watery kind or the chunky kind?
