Don Pablos' salsa contains sugar?

  • My coach said that DP salsa was allowed OP....but I saw on the web that it contains 2 grams of sugar for a 2 oz serving.

    Does anyone have any definitive information on this?

    Since I'm on the topic, are there any restaurants that have salsa that fits the IP requirements?
  • Yup, all of my google searches say they do add sugar to their salsa.

    No clue about sugar-free or IP friendly salsas in restaurants, sorry!
  • Salsa will contain naturally occurring sugar from the tomatoes. You need to check the label for added sugar in the ingredients list.

    ETA: If you're eating salsa from a restaurant I would ask exactly what's in it.
  • Does anyone know of any bottled salsas that are legal? Maybe a fresh pico de gallo would be ok and just count the fresh tomatoes towards my weekly allowance of restricted veggies. Missing salsa. I sprinkled Cholula hot sauce to my eggs tonight and it didn't satisfy the craving.
  • Another question: can we use packaged tuna in water (used to come in cans, now in pouches)? If so, Is it restricted on how many times per week? I saw something on the P1 sheet about red tuna being restricted, but I don't know what that is.

    Thanks
  • I buy the fresh salsa in the tub in the refrigerated produce section and count it towards my tomato allowance.

    I use canned tuna more than once per week, I believe the tuna steaks are limited to once per week.

    Thanks. That is exactly the salsa I was thinking about. . I thought a good thing to try would be a tuna salad using the WF mayo I have in my cupboard that I haven't used yet.
