What You Should Know

You'll find this jar in the salsa/condiments aisle (often near chips or Mexican ingredients) and it’s an easy grab for parties, tacos, or a quick snack. The smoky chipotle-garlic flavor feels bold and a little gourmet, yet the use of tomato paste, stabilizers and a prepared adobo mix signals industrial processing for a smooth, shelf-stable texture rather than a freshly crushed-tomato product.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Ingredients are mostly recognizable (tomatoes, chiles, garlic) but include industrially processed components like tomato paste, calcium chloride, citric acid and prepared adobo sauce, so it fits NOVA 3 (processed) rather than ultra-processed.
