TORTILLA CHIPS

Currently our Organic Chips are GMO free but without the certification.

SALSAS & GUACAMOLE

The HPP machine places our salsa containers in a cold water pressure up to 81,000 PSI killing bacteria at 99%, making our salsa safer without compromising quality and taste of the product.
Since we use fresh products there are several issues that impact the heat in the salsa.
  • As the season progresses, the peppers get hotter.
  • The closer to the “use by date” the chile has gotten hotter in the salsa.
Our Master Salsa maker- pepper human tester- tests daily for the heat in peppers for the batch.
Cilantro “strands” are very thin and can in fact resemble “grey hairs”. All production employees are required to wear hairnets at all times. The strands may be more visible when our blades lose sharpness right before we sharpen them.
We have always wanted the consumer to see what they are buying, hence the clear bag- but we understand that it isn’t perfect- and it can rip more than desired. We are continuously looking for the most improved effective designs.
