Absolutely terrible! First time buyer and I was quite surprised by the flavor. Similar to the taste of copper and it completely ruined the enchilada dish I made. Will be going back to my old faithful sauce of choice, the one by Essential. This is really gross and should be removed from the shelves.

My favorite enchilada sauce! It’s got a good flavor! Not too spicy that the kids won’t eat it.
It serves a purpose

I use it to cook chicken, onions, and green chilies for enchiladas in the slow cooker. But honestly, we use a different sauce for the enchiladas themselves.

I have used the sauce for years. And have always stood by it. But now .. sorry to say... It says it is Bioengineered. I'm in a group on Facebook who are strongly against this. And we are growing by the numbers, so we're contacting companies Letting them know that we will no longer be buying their products. Until it's removed, it is too dangerous for our bodies.

Hi! GMOs are used very commonly in the food industry, and if a food or beverage product lists corn, soy, canola, or sugar as an ingredient - and the product is not organic - it likely contains GMOs. GMOs are safe; we would not use them if we thought otherwise. Safe food is, and always has been our number one priority. Global food and safety regulatory bodies, including the FDA (Food & Drug Administration) and the WHO (World Health Organization), have also verified their safety.

not my favorite at all.

Idk about “enchilada sauce” Had to add a bunch of seasonings because the ingredients are literally just water and tomato purée….

I have been using Old El Paso enchilada sauce since the 1970's, and like others, I've noticed a change in the taste. I no longer like the flavor and am on the hunt for another brand of enchilada sauce.

Probably a good recipe but I just hope somebody there sees this I normally buy your hot sauce I remember several years ago having a can that my mother bought by accident My father and I sitting across the table wide-eyed as our lips burned and our eyes watered, It was actually hot and slightly thicker than it is now nowadays this stuff is basically like water not thick at all.. and definitely not spicy.. I would give the overall flavor a two out of five The overall spice maybe a one possibly a 1.5

I just read the label and it says "contains Bio-engineered food". Like other reviews this has been a staple in my pantry. But now it will not be!!

Bought this product to fulfill my coupon policy. This is the best sauce ever. It the best tacos I ever ate. I actually ate five paddles of sauce before I cleaned up. I will always buy this sauce again for my tacos.

Very easy, quick recipe for enchiladas. A nice change-of-pace meal for the family. I spray baking dish with cooking spray for easy cleanup. P.S. Stick with Old El Paso brand. Store brands will not give you the same results.

I have been a fan of Old El Paso since 1970 when my family moved us to Texas. The only canned sauce I use.
A staple in my pantry.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I always use the mild and enjoy the flavor very much. I also add it to more dishes other than just enchiladas. It's great in scrambled eggs for a different flavor.
