Not sure what the fuss is about, tastes fine to me
This tastes absolutely fine to me, I don't know what all the complaints are about. This is NOT sweet like the other reviews are saying, they use very fresh tomatoes, cut them up and add some herbs and some kind of tomato liquid and call it a salsa. This item says 'SALSA', not 'Mexican Salsa', if you want a Mexican salsa, perhaps go to Mexico, this is England and this is how they do it. I'm sure there are Mexican shops & restaurants in the UK that will do salsa the way you like it.
Cold wet gunk with no flavour. Ruins your crisps.
This is the worst salsa I've ever eaten. It was completely unappetising. It had almost no flavour, and was nothing more than cold, stodgy, wet, red gunk with the occasional raw onion and garlic waft. It made eating crisps a truly horrible experience. I will never buy this again. The Tesco salsa in jars in much, much better.
This isn't salsa!
I grew up in America. I have eaten salsa my whole life, all over the country from fancy Mexican restaurants to tiny mom and pop shacks in southern California. I was gutted when I moved to England nearly 10 years ago and found that jarred salsa isn't very good here. I was excited to find Tesco fresh salsa last week, opened it as soon as I got home and ......immediately binned it. I'm not sure what this is.... There are tomatoes and I think onions but that's where the salsa ingredients end. It's oddly goopy almost like a thin jam, or relish, very strangely sweet but also watery in flavour. No salt, or tangy flavour. I'm not sure how this combination could be. Has the recipe developer eaten fresh salsa before? I'll never know but please know that this is not salsa! Don't waste your money! Tesco! Please hire a recipe developer who's actually eaten real salsa!
Way too sweet. Why is salsa in this country made w
Way too sweet. Why is salsa in this country made with sugar?? Mexican salsa, and any decent ones in the U.S., are not sweet.
Had a very fresh taste will buy again

Ermm... so is this how it is meant to taste
One spoon and in the bin, really tasted quite awful, not sure if it was meant to taste that strange or whether something was wrong with it
Kids love it
My kids love this salsa... they eat a whole pot with fajitas so I barely get a look in. My husband not so keen as he says it tastes watery and tangy so just depends on what you like!
Not good
It doesn’t taste good at all, it is very watery and bland.
Save you money - nothing nice here.
In some parts of the world fresh salsa is a true delight, e.g. USA. This is because they use RIPE tomatoes, and NO puree. This is sad rubbish. Simply a waste of money, except as a lesson perhaps that when it comes to uk tomatoes are rubbish.
No flavour
This used to be a lovely product but it had no flavour and was just nowhere near as good or appetising as it used to be. Hoping it is just a poor batch. I bought it along with guacamole (which was really awful). I don't understand why these previously good products have gone so downhill
