What You Should Know

You'll spot this tomatillo salsa on the condiments/salsa shelf and reach for it when grabbing chips for a party, taco night, or a quick weeknight topping. It gives a bright, zesty, homemade vibe—fresh and a little adventurous—while the short ingredient list (tomatillo, peppers, onion, garlic, cilantro, salt, citric acid) suggests minimal industrial tinkering; the citric acid is a preservative that stabilizes flavor and texture but there are no obvious emulsifiers or artificial flavors.
