Is Chi-Chi's® Restaurant Style Mild Salsa 16 oz. Jar Nightshade Free?

Description
Mild, slightly tangy flavor and a chunky-yet-pourable texture suitable for dipping with chips, topping tacos, or using as a condiment. Reviewers frequently cite approachable heat and consistent jarred flavor, while some note occasional thinness, variability between batches, or a pronounced salty edge in certain containers, especially after extended storage periods.
Why it's not nightshade free
- jalapeno peppers
- tomato paste
- tomatoes in tomato juice
jalapeno peppers
Dietitian noteMost peppers, including jalapenos and chilis, are nightshades. However, black and white pepper are derived from peppercorns and thus are not nightshades.
