View Full Version : OT: Should A Jar of Salsa Hiss At You When You Open It?

this has been bothering me all day and now I need a quick answer

this AM, in preparing for my day, I decided that I would make baked softwrap tortillas w/ refried beans, onion, minced garlic, ground beef, shredded cheese and salsa for din-din tonight

I has this previously opened jar of Mango&Peach Salsa in the frig soes I decide to open it and give 'er the 'ol schnozz test and the damn thing hissed at me like an opening door on the Starship Enterprise when I unscrewed the lid

then as I'm looking into the jar there was this haze of gas-like smoke coming out --- but everything smelled fine and looked OK --- no grays or florescent limegreens or crazy colors going on in there

should I use this stuff or not?? --- it has only been in there for about 2 1/2 weeks since I first opened it and tightly resealed it

your prompt replies would be appreciated

The only thing that should hiss is a snake or an air leak. Anything else ain't worth the risk. What do you value more: a case of salmonella, or three bucks?

The warm air from when you opened it condesed from the cold fridge creating the hiss.

If theres no fuglies on it and it passed a quick taste test yous ok.

I'm coming over for dinner.

You shouldn't eat it simply because it is salsa.

You won't know until tomorrow morning, if you see freckles, thats a bad sign.

I think it should be okay. Just pent up air inside of it. If it looks and smells fine (plus you are going to cook it) it should be okay.

If this advice is bad, I apologize, in advance, for the freckles. :archive:

If it was a previously opened jar, then there's a good chance the stuff has fermented in the fridge (depending on brand, persvatives, etc... that's not uncommon). Spoilage would produce the same result, but the smell would most likely be nastified. I remember at least once having a little takeout thing of salsa from the local Mexican place (in this case Acapulco's in Norwood) that I had left out on the counter for a couple of days. The top had popped open and some of the liquid was bubbling out.

As for is it safe to eat? Probably, but I'd be weary. Some of those ingredients can get funky with each other over time, and you'd be popping a nice juicy chemical orgy in your mouth.

Same thing as JH, I wouldn't worry about it. And pasta sauce doesn't come from a jar, it comes from a pot on the stove.

so it says anything previously opened should be "OK for 20 or so days" before it "loses its bright flavor notes" ROFL

Tomato works wonders on the tough parts from the shins. Let those grisly suckers cook all day in some pasta sauce Mmmmmmmmm, Mmmmmmmmmmm GOOD!

BUT
The next little deer I "harvest" (bow, shotgun, muzzleloader, car, truck) goes in the meat grinder. The Venison Breakfast Sausage recipe I have fine tuned is the balls.

No kidding. There are only so many hours in a day. Sure I enjoy things made from scratch more than store bought items. Who doesn't? I simply don't have the time to make everything from scratch every single day.

I agree with that. When I make homemade stuff, it's when I have time, or I'm on vacation. Me and my lady had Spaghetti the other night, and she got jarred sauce. I didn't complain, since I didn't have to cook :thumb:

My daughter wouldn't wean. So her aunt, who raises horses, told me she used Tabasco sauce on the horse's teats to wean her foals. She said it was highly effective and recommended I do the same.

Great. Tabasco sauce on the nips. So your daughter stopped nursing, but your husband went back to it? ROFL Because hot sauce has the opposite effect for men...

this has been bothering me all day and now I need a quick answer

this AM, in preparing for my day, I decided that I would make baked softwrap tortillas w/ refried beans, onion, minced garlic, ground beef, shredded cheese and salsa for din-din tonight

I has this previously opened jar of Mango&Peach Salsa in the frig soes I decide to open it and give 'er the 'ol schnozz test and the damn thing hissed at me like an opening door on the Starship Enterprise when I unscrewed the lid

then as I'm looking into the jar there was this haze of gas-like smoke coming out --- but everything smelled fine and looked OK --- no grays or florescent limegreens or crazy colors going on in there

should I use this stuff or not?? --- it has only been in there for about 2 1/2 weeks since I first opened it and tightly resealed it

your prompt replies would be appreciated

The high-end "names" are good, too (Rao's, Newman's Own, anything made in local or small batches). Porino's and Barilla aren't awful, either, but they're not as good as Classico.

Sometimes, monetarily and time-wise, it's just easier. Take alfredo sauce for example. I won't eat anything that comes from a jar, even Classico's. My wife makes a mean alfredo. However, it's wikkid expensive for real good parmigiano reggiano, not to mention heavy cream is about five bucks a quart. So occasionally we stop at Venda Ravioli in Federal Hill and get some alfredo sauce to go, and we just throw in some shrimp, or broccoli, at home. :thumb:

My mom used to use Pastene "kitchen-ready" tomatoes and Contadina tomato paste. I think it was a 1-1 ratio, or maybe 2-1. She'd brown up her spices in a pan (garlic, onion, oregano, etc.,.) then add it to the sauce, and let that sucker bubble all day. She'd add in the homemade meatballs which were ridiculously tasty, along with Italian sausage and some pork. Mmmm!

Interesting never tried the others. I do on occasion do it homemade and then freeze.

I will only make alfredo home made though. Something about cream being preserved in a jar makes me hurl. It has to be fresh. Then again, try making it with organic cream. Oh Yes, Yes, Yes!

Ohhhh it is sooooooo mucha better!

We never had the Northern Italian food at all growing up. My dad full blooded Sicilian as was his family hated butter. It was olive oil bread. But they loved ice-cream. I hear in Italy it is the best. But European dairy products put American's to shame for taste and quality. IMO!

Americans eat way too much meat. It's one of the reasons we're the fattest and unhealthiest nations in the world. If everyone was forced to hunt their meat, they'd probably be a lot healthier and there'd be a lot less animal deaths and waste. In Ye Olde Days, meat wasn't a daily thing, and if you wanted a pig or a chicken you walked out back and killed one. Now it's meat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, all of it over-processed, factory-farmed, pumped full of chemicals to grow fatter and then full of preservatives to get it to your supermarket. Besides, if you have to kill it yourself, I think you have more respect for the animal.

Salsa: A spicy sauce of chopped, usually uncooked vegetables or fruit, especially tomatoes, onions, and chili peppers, used as a condiment.

Picante: 1. Prepared in such a way as to be spicy.
2. Having a sauce typically containing tomatoes, onions, peppers, and vinegar.

Wild game ain't gonna make you fat - look at the difference between a store-bought turkey and a wild turkey.

I grew up eating meat and fish with almost every meal - but it was alsmost all wild game - birds, deer, etc... and I had trouble gaining weight. I tried to join the Marine Corp, and they wanted me to gain 30+ pounds... couldn't do it.

I dont really hunt anymore because I can actually afford to buy food, and now, I weight what the marines wanted I should weight - and I have to work at it to not keep gaining...

So no, Wild Game meat isn't a cause of weight gain IMHO...

RIGHT Dwight..its the high fructose corn syrup and hydrogenated fats. I really think a sort of new "body type" has been created just from the corn syrup alone.

That stuff is killer and it's in everything! I really think it's a big contributer to the increase in diabetes— in children too.

Yeah, all the old Italian guys used to have a big jug of cheap red wine next to the dinner table.

I like when they go interview some 102-year-old Russian farmer, and ask him what the secret to long life is, and he says something like, "Cigars and vodka!" ROFL

Thats like my dad.

12 pack of Bud and 2 packs filterless Camels.

Increase in sugar intake and more inactivity - part of the westernization of indians, for example, that has made us suceptable to it... it's an epidemic among natives :(

The Final Word on Nutrition

After an exhaustive review of the research literature, here's the final word on nutrition and health:

1. Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart
attacks than us.

2. Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks
than us.

3. Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart
attacks than us.

4. Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and suffer
fewer heart attacks than us.

5. Germans drink beer and eat lots of sausages and fats
and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.

CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

It's the sugars and the BAD fats.

Most people have no clue what the sugars due to their blood sugar levels and their resulting insulin levels.

The biggest part of the problem is the source of the trouble is the quick,easy foods to eat. Most people don't have the time to do a lean peice of meat and a salad so they reach for chips and soda and all that fluff filler sh$te.

It's becoming a problem with Asians too. Our diet is spreading everywhere. (pun intended)

I eat whole grain spaghetti...angel hair. I only eat the white when it's for an alfredo dish which is only eaten as a rich treat. Heck even our oatmeal, especially the instant, is an insulin surge. I buy the brown Irish steel cut oats. Use a touch of maple syrup...and I do like it with my organic cream. I only buy organic milk too.

I bought this cooking health book for children's meals when my kid was young. A great way to hide veggies if they don't like them is to save the water or juice and use that for your gravy water. Recycles it. Should drink the juice anyway 'cause that's where the nutrients go. I make my mashed taters by lightly boiling them in the milk ( or chicken stock if you want less calories). This way the nutrients remain in the food. People overboil potatoes...and then CHANGE the water. It's dead by the time they're done. Nothing but a big pot of starch.

We had a trout in the freezer for about 10 years - it was the first fish my daughter caught when she was about 5, and we weren't allowed to eat it, or throw it out or anything... she was so proud of that darn thing...

When we found it, buried in frost, I was sooo tempted to feed it to my father-in-law...

Have you seen some of the stuff some kids get in their lunches? Those Kraft snack packs are their main meal. Dyed cheese, tiny square of fatty ham and and white crackers. Quick and fast for working mom's no doubt but not really nutritious. The kids would tell my daughter she had salad in her sandwiches because there was lettuce and tomato in it. I thought it was funny but sad at the same time.
