REVIEW: Archer Farms Salsa & Tortilla chips & sweet revenge

As previously noted with much disappointment, my dear, sweet (perpetually starving) pup, “Nina” decided to taste test 80% of my delicious breakfast the other morning and I have been trying to come up with a way to get back at her ever since. Revenge seeking on a dog is not easy, but I got lucky.

I am actively trying to test out as many of the Target Brand “Archer Farms” offerings as possible since falling in love with their amazing trail mixes & dried fruits recently….

It has been ballsweat hot outside recently which makes me crave refreshing snacks..
SO I BOUGHT SOME CHIPS & SALSA!!

I realized that my doggies were watching me intently (especially Nina) as I took pictures of the salsa jars and decided that I might have a little fun with the salsa-on-chip shots.

Let’s start with the Mango Peach salsa:

Please note the gorgeous chunks of fruit sparkling on the crunchy multigrain tortilla chip.
And then also note Nina’s much-tortured “want!” doggie expression as she wishes upon sweet velvet wish that I will drop my treasure directly into her mouth!
HA! Not this time Nina Bear!

Okay so onto the Corn, Blackbean, and Roasted Red Pepper salsa:

Pay close attention to the chunky veggies present in this salsa, and then make sure to notice my other curious pup Sake ready to get in on the action!

Other than the super entertaining albeit semi-cruel teasing of my pups, the salsa was ho-hum when it came to living up to the “medium” level of heat the label promised.
Both salsas were flavorful and satisfying, but lacked that extra “yeehaw” that I prefer.
The tortilla chips are delicious and crunchy and have the perfect level of saltiness.
(which really made the Mango Peach Salsa stand out!)

Despite the lack of piss-your-pants-spice, I will probably get these flavors again because I was pretty impressed with the freshness of the taste and the chunky action.

I know it has been a while since I updated you with deliciousness and for that I must apologize!
If it makes you feel any better, about 3 seconds after I snapped this picture and turned around to return to the kitchen to grab my milk, my lovely dog Nina helped herself to my defenseless breakfast leaving very little to ooohh and ahhhhhh over. It was a sad, sad morning.
