I too make a food I describe as "salsa". Fortunately, unlike that goat food served at the local Mex dive, mine is based soundly on the creamy goodness of Velveeta. Take a chunk, microwave into submission. Stir in ketchup to taste. (Feeling rustic? Omit microwave; use stovetop.) Tabasco is optional. Serves one to two, and serves'em right.

Penni: I'm sure that institutional salsa is not quite in the same league of the healthy mix you conjure up. The article reported that the government requirement is not a "load" but merely one ounce - that's the equivalent of two McDonald's squeeze catsups. Then there's the issue of those horrible tortilla chips soaked in hydrogenated oils - containing a far worse ratio of fat than with fries. You can verify that. All in all, I maintain that institutional grade salsa and chips has no nutritional advantage over catsup and fries. Probably worse.
