    would not buy again

    I bought both the salsa casera and the Verde a couple of months ago...I used a small amount to taste and liked each one...I put them in the refrigerator and took them out in anticipation of using for Cinco de mayo...both jars had mold floating on top...the use by date on each one is oct 26...I question the safety of eating these after initial opening....will not buy again

    Salty, watery and chunky.

    First time trying this. Had to drain the excess water/juice. Threw it into the Vitamix for a few pulses with a good pinch of sugar. Much better after.

    Recipe change for the worst!!

    Ugh! We used to love Herdez (medium), you have changed the texture and flavours and it's just like any old salsa on the market now. After 15 loyal years, we will not be purchasing anymore. New recipe is not for the better

    This is the best salsa I've ever had!

    I have tried more salsas than I can count but was never satisfied until I tried this one. We use several other Herdez products and have been well pleased, so I figured...why not? I will never have to look further! The taste is well balanced with no artificial after taste. My only issue is that I prefer a thicker salsa and this is more watery than i like, and it wouldn't stay on my chips. So out came the stick blender and my problem was quickly resolved. Please don't change a thing!

    Something has changed and it's not for the better!

    I usually buy two jars of the Mecium at a time. I have a little with my scrambled eggs every morning. A few months ago, it became very very watery. However, the chunks were still good, so I kept buying. The last four jars I have purchased have had no chunks at all. Very smooth and puréed for a consistency. Not good at all.

    Last 2 jars I bought are very watery

    This has been my favorite brand of salsa for many years, but the last 2 jars I bought are very watery. Not sure what happened, did the recipe change? I thought the 1st watery jar was just a fluke but now the second jar I bought at a different location was also watery. Not a fan of this change!

    Water

    My wife and I have been buying this salsa for years. And it has always been the best. Lately the salsa we get is half or more water, it's terrible. I don't know if they think they're gonna save money. But they're not, they're going to lose a bunch of customers.

    The company who makes this should be ashamed!

    Being on the road a lot, we have bought many different salsas. I see a different brand, look up the reviews and pick the one with good reviews. I was so wrong this time. I don't know what standard they use to determine this is a medium salsa. I would call it mild at best. While it's chunky, it's devoid of any real taste. Lastly, it is so watery that I'm convinced they add the extra water to make more money. They use water to increase the volume so they can charge the same as real salsa. When I looked up the company, it's a Mexican company working with Hormel food in the US. Mexican? They should be ashamed of themselves for calling this watery, bland crap as edible. I'd love to hear what other people who like salsa think about this brand.... or do you suppress these kind of honest reviews

    Best salsa in a jar by a mile

    I have been buying Herdez mild camera salsa for several years and have never had a bad batch. Unless you make your own salsa or buy it fresh this is still the best salsa in a jar.

    They changed the recipe, now it is too salty and too spicey

    My family used to buy 3 - 5 jars at a time, and have for years. But this week, we noticed it is way saltier and way too spicier. The original formula was perfect, now it tastes like every other bad salsa out there. Guess we have to find a new salsa…such a shame they messed with perfect and lost many customers.

    No the same as it used to be

    Been buying Salsa Casera Medium for several years and was always very pleased with the flavor and consiistency. However this last jar which I just opened today had to have been half water. Couldn't eat it on chips as it was so watery it just drained off the chip. Actually wound up DRINKING it out of the bowl I had poured it into with a chip. Very disappointed. I think I'm going to have to find a different brand as I don't like watery salsa.

    I loves this Red sauce

    I have purchased this red Salsa Casera in tin cans in Mexico since early 1960's !! Now living in Florid, in the past three months, only the Verde sauce is available. Not in Win Dixie, Publix or any Hispanic grocery store. What's up with that?
