I guess when I have a tortilla chip, I probably dip it so that around 30 to 40% (??) of the chip has hit salsa.  I like a good part of the chip dry so I can grab it easily and to be courteous to others by not sticking my whole hand in the bowl of salsa.  If it's a bigger chip that I wish to double-dip, I will break it in half.

At last a meaningful poll. I usually eat a handful of chips and drink the salsa out of the jar. I really like salsa.

I've never tried to quantify it.  Kind of depends on how thick the salsa is.  More salsa if thicker and less if runny.

Also depends on how good the salsa is.

I'm not a huge salsa fan either, usually.  Maybe 10-20%?

Weak.

I'd say 30% salsa, 70% chip.

I like a saurcream dip, often with garlic or chilli or barbicue taste,
 
but a good salsa is also goof
 
also guacamole is lovely as a dip

Are we talking about chunky salsa, watery salsa, mushy salsa, dry salsa? And are the chips in question deep fried, circular, triangular, scoops or flavored? Any and all of those variables change what the ideal ratio might be.

You always have to make things difficult don't you? Anyway I stand by my answer. And while we're at it what is the difference in salsa and picante sauce? Is it like "prog" and "progressive"?

If I take too much salsa for one chip, I'll make it a sandwich with another chip on top.  Sometimes just another chip as a chaser.

I interpreted it as what percentage of the chip has salsa on it.  I guess I was imagining a more watery salsa.  If it's chunkier, I'll take fewer chunks.

I also imagined triangular chips, though I often have bite-sized miniature ones. I usually don't dip flavored chips.

Great topic.  No wonder I spend more time in the off-topic area than the actual music sections these days. LOL

As long as the salsa is HOT, does it matter?  Tongue

Well, yeah, if it ain't hot, bleeeaaagghh.  I'd rather have it a bit too hot than bland.

I guess about 30/70 .. I don't eat as much salsa as I used to, the prevalence of cilantro these days puts me off--  anyone for the proper eggs-to-homefries ratio?  I like at least three runny eggs with a nice pile of taters.

Cilantro is certainly an acquired taste.  I didn't like it the first time I had it.  Tasted kind of soapy.

The healthy option: Instead of chips, use gucumber slices or other vegetables to scoop up the dip(s). Even if you don't care much for healthy, it will still enable you to eat more of the dips. Wink

Don't certain people's body chemistry cause them to perceive cilantro as unpleasant and soapy-tasting?

I like veggies for creamy dips but not salsa, and the wholegrain that good cornchips provide are just as useful to the body as vegetables

I prefer a lot of salsa, more than chip.
I'll go with 60/40

Does anyone else doctor the salsa?  If I'm in a Mexican restaurant and there's a bottle of this on the table,



some of it is going in the salsa.

Hmm...tough call. I usually put all my salsa on one side of the chip, leaving the other bare, and eating the whol;e thing. Don't know what it would be if I spread the salsa out. But, I'll hazard a guess for serious buisness and say 60/40 salsa to chip.

First option. I was tempted to put the last purely for the humor.
