why is jarred salsa so terrible?

if it's so easy to profit, why isn't there honky lips salsa out there yet?

This is why I buy salsa to-go from restaurants. Same price, fresh, and infinitely better in flavor. Superior or Trejos ftw.

maybe thats the problem. living in the wrong state.

just put this shyt in a jar and make money:

Yeah the stuff I like that is jarred is local stuff. Cant remember the exact name of it but its just a guys name. Mikes or something similar.

I actually like some jarred salsas, but I do agree that they are completely different from restaurant salsa.. to the point where I hardly consider them the same food item.

Why not stop by a restaurant and grab a pint of salsa every so often? There are Mexican joints on every corner it seems, and all have pretty decent salsa. Plus, they give you a bag or two of their homemade chips when you order salsa.

I know nothing about this kind of thing, but I assume it's a keeping issue?

In order to increase shelf life, all jarred supermarket salsas have been cooked, giving them a flavor and texture that’s different from the freshly-prepared salsas that you find in Mexican restaurants. That doesn’t necessarily make them any worse, just different.

For the same reason Hidden Valley ranch dressing out of the bottle tastes like arse compared to fresh made ranch using the Hidden Valley packets.

They need to put a lot of shite in bottled version so it can sit in your fridge for months on end.

There are tons of good jar salsas. Look up Clint's and Mateo's.
