salsa?

meleldredge, welcome! [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/smile.gif[/img]

I love Pace salsa. That's the brand that I prefer to buy for myself. What we usually buy is Tostitos brand, medium spiciness for the children to eat.

My PA son doesn't really indulge in salsa like his sister and his parents do. He'll dip a chip in and just have a little bit of salsa on it.

But, we've never had any problems with him with either Pace or Tostitos.

However, two big cautions - I'm Canadian, so not sure about where you are find, didn't check your profile, and also, I haven't called either company to see what they have to say about their natural flavourings and whether or not I would feel comfortable with their answer.

You might want to do a search on the board about Natural and Artificial Seasonings and Flavourings and see what you come up with in those threads, even if they are old, because I know it's something that we're all *supposed* to check, but to be quite honest with you, I have rarely checked Natural and/or Artificial Seasonings.

There is a *good* story, IMHO, here about how someone just used artificial almond flavouring to make cookies and how their child had a reaction.

Hope this helps a bit.

alternative to mainstream, Thank you for you quick responce. We are located in the U.S.A Park city UTAH to be exact. I've seen the Tostitos salsa and that looks good.I will get some next time we are at the store. Thankyou again.

Please check with them though, because, as I said, I've never called any salsa manufacturer to see if they're PA safe, assuming that it would be labeled if it wasn't. And your concern was with the natural and/or artificial flavourings/seasonings. I have NEVER called about those, or perhaps once, in dealing with PA for almost 7 years.

And my PA son, again, he only has a wee dip of it (although that would be enough if there was a problem).

Please call first to make sure this fits in your comfort zone.

I'm going to see if I can find any threads re flavourings/seasonings.

Im sorry for not saying that I would contact the manufacture about the Tostitos salsa. I was planing on calling them. thank you.

We prefer the taste of Pace and have used this with no problems. We've also used Ortega Homestyle, Tostitos, Newmans and Taco Bell, all without incident.

We've used Tostitos salsa for years with no problem.

We use the El Torito salsa with no problem.
