Answer 7

I use tomatoes, garlic salt, lemon juice, jalapenos, green onions, cilantro and I cut them up and put them in the bowl in that order... its the best way I've found to produce the juiciest yet chunky salsa.

Answer 8

When I make salsa I put loads of fresh, ripe tomatoes, white onions, mushrooms, banana catsup, hot sauce and cream cheese. Try it. :)

But do not mix everything; make layers instead. And consume it as soon as possible. With the tomatoes and cream cheese, it's prone to spoilage.
