Please note that our mild salsa is mild to our taste and compared with our medium and our nuclear it is indeed mild. Over the years of doing in store demos and speaking with thousands of customers we have concluded that no two people really taste "hot" in the same way. Compared with other salsa ours will definitely taste spicier as we use habanero pepper as stated on the label versus the much milder jalapeno or chili pepper that other salsas use. We acutally make everything ourselves on our farm in small batches using fresh product and fresh product does not always have the same taste/heat each and every time so there can and will be variations in the different batches. Please be aware though, that although the salsa may taste too hot to you, the pepper cannot actually burn your mouth! Again, sorry it was not to your taste, but if we could figure out how to make a product that would please absolutely everyone's taste buds I can promise you we would produce it!

Fresh, floral habaneros with a mix of other vegetables -- how pleased was I to see entire disks of carrot in the mix as well? Bravo.

Thank you for making a hot salsa that is actually HOT, an especial rarity in this region (and time zone!). How long will it be in season? And does it freeze well?

Greetings from South Jersey! Just wanted to thank you for your many samples of hummus, salsa, and dips. I, along with the rest of the staff, have been enjoying the different treats you have given us. My personal favorite, so far, has been the sweet pepper hummus and the tzatziti. Actually, as I type this, I am munching on some chips with the tomato basil hummus. Once again, thank you for you generousity! Caitlin, The Rodeway Inn Hello! Greetings from South Jersey! Just wanted to thank you for your many samples of hummus, salsa, and dips.
