Simple Truth Organic Mild Salsa Review
Simple Truth Organic Mild Salsa 5 Star Rating: Cheapism Best Pick
Summary:

Best Organic or Natural Salsa. Of the organic and natural salsas we tested, Kroger's house brand Simple Truth Organic Mild Salsa was one of few to find favor with our panel. A touch of sweet and smoke in the flavor appealed, but the consistency was declared a tad thin.

Sold at Kroger stores and affiliates across the country, Simple Truth Organic Mild Salsa commands $2.59 for a 16-ounce jar. At 16 cents an ounce, it wasn't the cheapest find in this salsa niche but cost less than other name-brand organics and naturals.

In their Simple Truth Organic Mild Salsa reviews, our posse of salsa connoisseurs deemed it the best of the organics and naturals included in the sample of four. And yet, opinions were divided. Most of the Simple Truth Organic Mild Salsa reviews by the 11-person tasting panel praised the sweet yet smoky notes while the others held back. Some attributed the "different spice" element they detected to "chipotle or smoked pepper" and other Simple Truth Organic Mild Salsa reviews mentioned hints of sweetness and a "cumin flavor." The consistency also elicited divergent views, with some finding it a bit thin despite the presence of veggie chunks.

In the end, this salsa won over five testers, failed to impress three, and left the rest somewhere in the middle. Only two panelists ranked it as their favorite in the category but it fared better overall than the other three natural/organic entries, which was sufficient to name it a best cheap organic/natural salsa.

Unfortunately, we did not find any online Simple Truth Organic Mild Salsa reviews -- expert or otherwise -- against which to check our own results. But given the bargain price, nationwide availability, and the sector's weak showing in our taste-off, this salsa merits a spot on any buffet table in need of an organic/natural dip.
