12 No Added Sugar Salsa Sauces – Item by Item

In this section, I will go through each of my 12 chosen no added sugar salsa sauce brands.

1. PickleSmash Pickle Salsa – 0g of Total Sugar

First up – is a slightly unusual salsa – a “pickle” salsa. This is the only salsa on this list that contains 0g of total sugar per serving. Even though none of the salsas in this post contain added sugar, they all contain a small amount of total sugar per serving due to naturally occurring sugar in tomatoes. So, if you want a salsa with 0g of total sugar per serving then a pickle serving may be your best bet.

This salsa is not only sugar free but is also gluten-free, keto, paleo, and vegan.

You can find this mild pickle salsa on Amazon here.

2. 365 by Whole Foods Market Mild Thick Salsa – <1g of Total Sugar

Next up is the mild and thick salsa from 365 by Whole Foods Market. This salsa is organic as well as being added sugar free and it only contains <1g of total sugar per serving.

12 Added Sugar Free Salsas You Need to Dip In – The Final Bite

Added sugar free salsas you need to dip in. What have we learned from the above? Well, when it comes to salsa the good news is that a lot of the main brands are not too high in sugar. For example, Tostitos salsa contains 2g of sugar per serving, and Whole Foods’ own brand Salsa has <1g of sugar per serving. However, just remember it is very easy to eat that whole jar of salsa in one sitting so just because it isn’t high in sugar per serving eating a whole jar can result in a lot more sugar. If you love salsa and want to really watch your sugar intake then pick any of the first four entries on my list which all contain <1g of sugar per serving.
