I saw a few posts that said that after I posted mine!
There was a commercial for a brand a few years ago wherein everyone thinks the jarred salsa is homemade, and I thought, "How stupid. Who the heck makes their own salsa?"
I've never personally known anyone who did, but I've seen recipes out there. I have tried the "store-made" from local supermarkets, but it's always just kind of meh. The jarred is better.
Maybe I will try this summer when local ripe tomatoes are available.

Do you have any Mexican markets available nearby? I like the fresh salsas in the regular grocery store, but the ones that each individual Mexican market makes will rock your world!
Signature Kitchens Select Medium Chipotle Salsa from Safeway. It says medium but people I give it to seem to think it is spicier. I love the flavor. Please try it if you see it on sale.
Herdez beats them all if you want authentic Mexican restaurant style salsa. Pace used to be good but they changed their recipes. Made here too. But, I've been a fan of Herdez since you could only get it in a can. Now in jars it's great stuff. We've had hundreds of different salsas and sauce.

Good question. Pretty sure we do. There is a town very close to me with a significant Mexican population and I'm pretty sure when I drive down the main drag that the stores lining the street are Mexican-owned businesses and markets. Huh. Might try that.
I've never been wild about Mexican food, but there is a good restaurant in that neighborhood that is often touted as "authentic" by the local and state magazines, and I do like the food there. THEIR salsa is simply wonderful.
Maybe I'll poke around in one of the stores one of these days and check out some homemade salsa.
