Why is my homemade canned salsa so gassy?

It's the presence of pepper and onions. Yours are fresher than the store's. Fresh food from the so-called sulfur group -- like garlic, peppers and onions -- will definitely make the gas kick in.

How long did you boil the salsa? Also - were your hands and lids clean and jars boiled? It sounds like some bacteria got in.
