Whoa, hold your horses partner. Salsa is good, but don't be hating on ketchup to prop up salsa. I love both condiments.

Sure..."salsa."
what is this, i don't even
So good. I have no idea as to the authenticity of this Mrs. Renfro, but god damn does she make a delicious, spicy salsa.
Great salsa brand, the mango habanero is great. This one though is inedible alone, it was so hot I couldn't do more than one or two chips lightly dipped. I kept it, but started adding it to things that need to be spiced up like chili or taco meat.

Favorite Salsa is the Trader Joe's fresh Serrano Salsa. So good.
I'm going to clue all of you in on a secret.
This is the greatest recipe for restaurant quality salsa ever.
"But Zodzilla!" you exclaim, "That recipe doesn't have any fresh tomatoes!"
Doesn't matter. It's effing crazy delicious and fresh tasting. My gf and I eat this stuff by the pound and it makes enough for 3 jars full. The entire recipe takes 5 minutes to make the best damn salsa you've ever eaten ever.
Seriously, if you don't believe me, make some yourself and then come back here and tell me that I've made a mistake.

Do the xenophobes that lament the rise of salsa ever stop to consider that it sells more than ketchup because people use a lot more salsa when they're eating it? I doubt it. I've never killed even a half bottle of ketchup on a single serving of anything before, but can devour most of a jar of salsa with one basket of chips.
Buy this.
I'm white and what is this

Ha, I thought so, too, at first, but you just need to keep soldiering on through the pain! Once you get over the heat, it becomes so delicious.

This too.
I have ketchup in my fridge that's probably been in there for a whole year. I'll go through a jar of salsa a night.

You must have major reading comprehension issues. Do you want me to tell you the actual take home message from that article?
White people are eating more salsa.

Fuck me, I want some queso right now or some Rotell or some Rotell and queso.
It should be "unicorn shit and sawdust".

Do so and post back here (or pm me) to confirm it does (hint: it will).

Thankfully in the south we get this stuff...
I loved ketchup as a kid, but I only put it on burgers now, and sometimes fries. Just too sweet.
I'm as white as can be, but I love me some salsa. So good. I usually go with Green Mountain Gringo if I buy at the store, but 95% of the time, I make my own.
So easy, and so good:
3ish tomatoes
1/2 red onion
2 jalapeños
Cilantro
Little bit of seasoning salt
Lime juice
Mix up and let sit for a little bit to let the spice from the peppers sink in.
I usually just chop everything up, but if you have a food processor, you can make more of the dip style.

I'm whiter than white (much like Kip Winger's teeth) and I love me some salsa.
Once I experienced this firsthand, it annoyed me like crazy. Kroger has like 20 types of mild and mediums salsa, and not a single normal hot salsa. What is this garbage. No, I do not want spicy peach salsa, just something plain. Is that so much to ask? It's like having ketchup without salt in it.
I just checked out their site, had no idea they made a nacho cheese version.
Gotta try this.

Actually, when I remember growing up poor, I do remember doing that, too, when the pantry was looking pretty lean. It's okay in the interests of variety, but shouldn't be encouraged. haha I'm a half-white, half-Asian, but I do love love love New Mexican food, which is more or less colonial Spanish standards crossbred with Native foods and, occasionally, American inventions. New Mexicans love salsa.
Nah, man. See, ketchup could disappear tomorrow and I bet that the world would go on just fine. Salsa disappearing would fuck the universe pretty hard. So, glad it's there wasting space in the fridge, but it might as well be forgotten until fried potato matter or the occasional meatloaf meal is involved. No, really, I'm not against ketchup...but it has only so many uses compared to salsa.

Except at the very top where it weasels in that immigrants and minorities are rewriting American demographics and food.
What is this?? Canned tomatoes??? No sir..
This is what you do,
4-6 medium to large tomatoes
2 jalapeños
1 Serrano
1/2 habanero
Throw them all on the grill until they char on all sides
Dice up onion
Roughly Chop up cilantro
When tomatoes, peppers are done throw them into a blender (don't peel skin off anything)
Add salt, pepper, 1 clove garlic, a squeeze of fresh lime, and a teaspoon honey/sugar and blend.
Pour out salsa and throw into a bowl, add cilantro, onions, and mix together
Put In the fridge to cool off.
Then you can enjoy authentic salsa, no canned stuff
ghost peppers are no joke.I just checked out their site, had no idea they made a nacho cheese version.
Gotta try this.
I'm serious when I say that the highest heat from a fresh ghost chili lasts about 30 minutes. It's... bracing.
Ketchup has no defense, it's a gross and outdated relic of less tasty times.
This is exactly what I said when I was initially presented with this recipe, but I was proven wrong. It really is as close to restaurant quality salsa as you can get. I'll totally try out your salsa though and will get back to you with a comparison.
I used to make fresh Pico de Gallo, but this salsa recipe still blows it away in terms of flavor.

FWIW I found it really disappointing. The cheese wasn't great and it wasn't better than like, making your own with cheese and Mrs. Renfros.
Now Mango Habanero Renfros, cream cheese, and Xtra Hot Franks? Now you're talking.
instinctively this deeply offends me, but I've been wrong before.

Nothing wrong with Herdez. Granted I never use it for dipping but I do use it when cooking and I need a decent cheap salsa verde.Stay away from this salsa verde.
Mix all that together for a dip?
