I tried salsa from four brands to see which one was game-day worthy.

  • Ahead of Super Bowl Sunday, I set out on a mission to find the best store-bought salsa.
  • I tried medium salsa from four brands - Trader Joe's, Wegmans, Tostitos, and Archer Farms.
  • The Trader Joe's medium salsa tasted the most similar to the kind of salsa you'd get in a restaurant, while the Wegmans medium salsa packed the most flavor with an abundance of delicious vegetables.
  • The medium salsa from Tostitos just wasn't seasoned enough for me.

While restaurant or homemade varieties might tickle your taste buds, store-bought salsa can be just as spicy and delicious.

With Super Bowl Sunday just around the corner, I set out on a mission to find the best store-bought salsa.

I tried medium salsa from four brands - Trader Joe's, Wegmans, Tostitos, and Archer Farms - and found that they were all very different from each other.

Tostitos' medium salsa is arguably a staple at most game-day parties but in my opinion, it lacked the flavor and spice of the Trader Joe's and Wegmans salsas.

Here's a breakdown of every store-bought salsa I tried, ranked from worst to best.
