What brand do you recommend? Sometimes I get a craving for chips and salsa and Pace just doesn't cut it anymore. Thanks!

I love Goya's Pico de Gallo. It'll be in the international foods section though, not with chips or with taco fixings.

Hi! I just discovered my favorite brand of salsa and chips while shopping at Meijer a couple of weeks ago. The brand is called Garden Fresh Gourmet. It says ..... America's #1 Award Winning Salsa Co. on their products. The salsa is so delicious!! And their tortilla chips are better than all the other brands I've tried. (Look for an orange bag near the delli department and the salsa is the refrigerated section of cheeses and dips nearby.)
I bought the mild but they have a lot that I plan on trying in the future. Here's all of them: gardenfreshgourmet.com

Have you considered fresh pico de gallo? For me it's salsa kicked up a notch! You can usually find it fresh at the grocery store in the produce section.

Pico de Gallo

Any brand, or ask to buy a tub of it from your local mex restaruant (cheapest & best aside from homemade). There's also tons of recipes online, it's super simple:

tomatoes
white onions (important to use white or purple ones, white's best)
jalapenos
garlic
lemon juice
lime juice
cillantro
salt & pepper

Chop, pour, sprinkle, sit for 10+ minutes, serve.

I'm also pretty fond of trader joes salsas - mango, avocado, etc.

Does your store carry Joe T. Garcia's brand? The medium flavor is so good. Otherwise I agree with others' suggestions about the fresco salsa in the refrigerated section but pump up the spice factor with hot sauce.

Ok, I've got two recommendations for you. One is based on where you're living--Texas. Do they have an HEB grocery store near you? HEB carries Julio's brand chips AND salsa and both are SO GOOD!! Run out and get some if you're near that store! If not, I've got what may seem like an unlikely suggestion, but I swear it's pretty dang good. The Kirkland brand salsa in the non-refrigerator section at Costco is great. Try it and let me know what you think!
