What You Should Know

You'd find this bottle in the condiments or refrigerated dressings aisle, an easy grab for taco night, a summer BBQ, or to brighten roasted veggies. It presents a wholesome, health-forward vibe with avocado and organic ingredients, but the silky, stable texture and additives (thickeners, gums, extracts, concentrated juices) point to industrial emulsification and preservation typical of highly processed sauces.
