Summary
This salsa contains beneficial ingredients like fire roasted tomatoes, onions, garlic, and cilantro, which provide vitamins, antioxidants, and flavor. However, the presence of expeller pressed canola oil, a seed oil high in omega-6 fatty acids, is a concern due to its potential to promote inflammation.
