May 20, 2008

Here's a mild and fruity new salsa that has a pleasant sweet taste and just the right amount of heat -- although it may be on the mild side for those chili lovers out there. It also comes in peach, red raspberry and cherry. The pineapple flavor is not overwhelming and makes a nice change to regular salsa. The first ingredient is diced tomato and the second pineapple -- which is great. Our one problem with this product is we're wondering if pineapples aren't sweet enough not to need a lot of extra sugar -- so why is sugar the third ingredient? With 6g of sugar for a two-tablespoon serving, it just seems excessive. Retails for $5.95/17 oz.
