What You Should Know

You'd spot this jar of CLINTS Mild Salsa in the condiment aisle or on a snack table at casual gatherings — ideal for chips, tacos, or game-day spreads. It has a fresh, homey, slightly nostalgic vibe: bright tomato, cilantro and mild pepper notes that feel like a simple pantry staple. The ingredient list shows whole vegetables with modest additives (citric acid, calcium chloride) used to preserve texture and shelf life rather than heavy industrial reformulation.
