If you were shopping at a store for Salsa which name would catch your eye?
Austin’s annual Hot Sauce Contest attracted more than 10,000 people to the Texas town to line up and taste the entries. One of the newer rules: entrants must eat a spoonful of their own salsa in front of the judges before the judges will try it, learning a lesson from a contest in Albuquerque, N.M., when an entrant submitted a sauce made from pure capsicum extract, the active ingredient in pepper spray carried by police officers. “People are now buying more salsa than ketchup,” says Patrick Timpone, a three-time winner who sells his sauce in all 50 states. “People are putting it on eggs, potatoes, whatever they can find. Kids are putting it on macaroni and cheese.” (Christian Science Monitor) ...More salsa than ketchup? Maybe there’s hope for this country yet!
