Natural flavors added. Learn why
Companies add flavorings to make products taste better. They are created in a lab and the formulations are guarded as trade secrets. Flavorings can compensate for flavor loss during processing, substitute for ingredients, lower production costs and increase shelf stability. Natural flavorings are more expensive to source than artificial flavors, but tend to be better received by consumers. People sensitive to MSG, vegans, vegetarians and those with allergies should pay special attention to the phrase "natural flavorings" since glutamates, animal products or allergens may be the source of natural flavors. You can always contact the manufacturer for more information.

"Natural" is an unregulated term!
One in four new products launched in 2010 had a label claiming it was “Natural”. But did you know that there is no regulatory definition for “Natural” foods? While there are strict standards for Organic labeling, it’s pretty much a wild west when it comes to the use of the word Natural. Hence you can find chips made from “all natural potatoes”. Has anyone ever seen an artificial potato?

Learn about Xanthan Gum, found here
Xanthan gum is an emulsifier. It helps ingredients blend more effectively and stay blended while waiting on a shelf. For example – water and oil mixtures, as well as bits of spice in a salad dressing. Xanthan Gum is made by fermenting corn sugar with a bacteria, Xanthomonas campestris. It’s the same bacteria that creates black spots on broccoli and cauliflower. The result is a slimy goo that is then dried up and ground into a fine white powder.

Vitamin C, where art thou?
Tomatoes are usually a great source of vitamin C, but in this product they're not. A tomato should always be a good source of C! There is some speculation on why tomatoes can be C-deficient: - Grown in nutrient-poor soil - Picked while green, then ripened using ethylene gas - Use of pesticides, fungicides and herbicides While choosing a salsa, choose one high in vitamin C. Buy fresh salsa while in season (summer on the east coast, year-round in California). And if you want the best salsa - make your own: Mix diced tomatoes and fresh chili peppers together with a splash of vinegar and a dash of salt & pepper. Add chopped onions, corn or fruits (peach, mango & pineapple are good in salsa).
