- Delete - At best this might merit a slight merge somewhere in a "popular culture" section of an article about the immigration debate; I hardly think we need an entire article to mention a barely-noticed failed product. NorthBySouthBaranof ( talk) 12:26, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
- Keep While there were no news articles to speak of in a gNews search, I did find the salsa and the company mentioned in four books each of which confirms the general facts in the article and each of which touches on differing aspects of the story of the salsa and the founding of the company that made it. I've added the citations for the books to the article and also pulled up and linked the webarchive of the company website as one other cite. I've also cleaned up the article just a bit. It can use some more work, of course. Notability is not temporary, so the fact that the company is defunct is not telling in this analysis. There are reliable, third party, independent sources supporting notability. No one is more surprised than myself at my !vote, but I think it's warranted in this case. Take another look at the article and check out the sources I've added. Geoff | Who, me? 21:31, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
- Quick review - good work, but... my gut feeling is that notability is from Minuteman Project and a merge there is common sense as this is doomed to be stub-ish, and in popular-culture-ish/news-ish. My crystal ball says it fails WP:10YT. Widefox; talk 07:42, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

- Delete at best and later Draft and Userfy if needed because this apparently is currently not existing and is thus questionable for any improvements. With the current article being questionable, there's nothing convincing to keep. SwisterTwister talk 05:52, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
