Homeboy Industries Salsa and Tortilla Chips in Ralphs

Homeboy Industry announced that as of January 19, 2011 their salsa and tortilla chips are available at Southern California Ralphs. That’s over 256 stores!

THE BIG DAY HAS ARRIVED! Come to any of the 256 Ralphs locations in Southern California and you can now pick up Homeboy Salsa & Chips. Inspired by Homegirl Cafe At Homeboy Industries Chef Pati Zarate, the incredible variety of Homeboy Salsas coupled with tasty chips are perfect for snacking, fa…mily gatherings and parties…. Proceeds benefit Homeboy, and we’re excited that these products in stores now! Who’s making a run to Ralphs???

If you’re following our page, you know you can pick up Homeboy Salsa and Chips at Ralphs locations in SoCal. If you’re able, how about helping those whose chips are down – grab a little extra to donate to a local food shelter & take a pic of yourself donating. We’ll post it here for everyone to see! You’ll be supportin…g Homeboy and helping others with a gift that is near & dear to Father Greg – helping fight hunger.

Mango, Molita and Pico de Gallo (hot)

Mango is really good!! A little sweeter, but the onions are fantastic.

Molita has great flavor, but is too runny/messy with chips.

The Pico, even though it says “hot” isn’t very spicy, and while fresh, lacks flavor.

Congrats to Homeboy Industries.

This is great news as Homeboy comes back from massive layoffs last year.

The baked goods from Homeboy are very good and available at the Studio City Farmers Market on Sundays.
