I said Bendito because I thought it was the best name, not because it stood out the most. : )

Banditos or Grandpas. Banditos sounds like a Salsa name. You could even have a little Bandito with two 6 guns on the label for hot, and a Senorita for mild.

Grandpas is alright. Everyone loves their Grandpa.
Not surprised noone picked In-Laws yet.
Nobody likes the in-laws. Well I don't.
"Would you like some In-Laws with them chips?"
lol

Other people have used 'banditos'. This can be a good thing.
1. It's a good idea.
2. It's popular.
3. If it sells more salsa, that's all that's important.
Personally I like Bendito because it sounds more refined and the actual meaning of it is more positive and nice.
My personal attraction to the word doesn't mean anything, it's what will sell more salsa. (I'm assuming that's why you're asking)
Kids like salsa. Kids like Banditos. Banditos like pirates are fun.

I was aware of Bandana Banditos, but not of the other two. Yeah, we've been throwing around different names for the last week or so. So, we decided to do a little market research so to speak and the see what the public (y'all) think. Thanks for your input it really helps.

Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. Lord Acton
He (Gordon Duff) also implies that forcibly removing Obama, a Constitution-hating, on-the-down-low, crackhead Communist, is an attack on America, Mom, and apple pie. I swear these military people are worse than useless. Just look around at the condition of the country and tell me if they have fulfilled their oaths to protect the nation from all enemies foreign and domestic.

Or pendejo or filho da puta. Well, maybe you could call the really, really hot stuff filho da puta.

Thank you. I was looking for something different that still sounded like the REAL deal. What could be more real than 3 Cowboys chowing down on chips, salsa, and cerveza?

The other thing, I just thought of, is it would allow you to use a more upscale, without being hoity toity, image on the label - perhaps 3 handsome smiling Vaqueros. (edit) Let's face it - who does most of the grocery shopping? Is the Senora of the house going to buy the picture of 3 Senoritas or 3 handsome cowboys?

Another option for an image is 3 Vaqueros on firey looking horses.
Other thoughts in the same vein:
Los Tres Caballeros
Los Tres Mosqueteros

Certainly an element of humor is nice but it can easily be overdone into kitsch or schmaltz. So colorful but harmonious, and with understated humor - not goofy. You want to project that this is a serious product not a lightweight.

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!
Frank: “Recently, I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili cook-off. The original person called in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the judge’s table asking for directions to the Coors Light truck, when the call came in. I was assured by the other two judges (Native Texans) that the chili wouldn’t be all that spicy and, besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted”. Here are the scorecard notes from the event:
CHILI # 1 – MIKE’S MANIAC MONSTER CHILI…
Judge # 1 — A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick. Judge # 2 — Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild. Judge # 3 (Frank) — Holy ****, what the **** is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the flames out. I hope that’s the worst one. These Texans are crazy.
CHILI # 2 – AUSTIN ‘S AFTERBURNER CHILI…
Judge # 1 — Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang. Judge # 2 — Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken seriously. Judge # 3 — Keep this out of the reach of children. I’m not sure what I’m supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face.
CHILI # 3 – FRED’S FAMOUS BURN DOWN THE BARN CHILI…
Judge # 1 — Excellent firehouse chili. Great kick. Judge # 2 — A bit salty, good use of peppers. Judge # 3 — Call the EPA. I’ve located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Get me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I’m getting ****-faced from all of the beer.
CHILI # 4 – BUBBA’S BLACK MAGIC…
Judge # 1 — Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing. Judge # 2 — Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods, not much of a chili. Judge # 3 — I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the beermaid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. That 300-LB woman is starting to look HOT…just like this nuclear waste I’m eating! Is chili an aphrodisiac?
CHILI # 5 LISA’S LEGAL LIP REMOVER…
Judge # 1 — Meaty, strong chili Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive. Judge # 2 — Chili using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement. Judge # 3 — My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I’m burning my lips off. It really pisses me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming. Screw those rednecks.
CHILI # 6 – VERA’S VERY VEGETARIAN VARIETY…
Judge # 1 — Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili Good balance of spices and peppers. Judge # 2 — The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, and garlic. Superb. Judge # 3 — My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulfuric flames. I **** on myself when I farted and I’m worried it will eat through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that Sally. Can’t feel my lips anymore. I need to wipe my *** with a snow cone.
CHILI # 7 – SUSAN’S SCREAMING SENSATION CHILI..
Judge # 1 — A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers. Judge # 2 — Ho hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chili peppers at the last moment. **I should take note that I am worried about Judge # 3. He appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably. Judge # 3 — You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I wouldn’t feel a thing. I’ve lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili, which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava to match my shirt. At least during the autopsy, they’ll know what killed me. I’ve decided to stop breathing it’s too painful. Screw it; I’m not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I’ll just suck it in through the 4-inch hole in my stomach.
CHILI # 8 – BIG TOM’S TOENAIL CURLING CHILI…
Judge # 1 — The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili. Not too bold but spicy enough to declare its existence. Judge # 2 — This final entry is a good, balanced chili. Neither mild nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge #3 farted, passed out, fell over and pulled the chili pot down on top of himself. Not sure if he’s going to make it. poor feller, wonder how he’d have reacted to really hot chili? Judge # 3 – No Report _

But that is what the peppers are for - to thin the blood and make it more tolerable.
It's always a good time for Chili. (Started brewing my own when I was 14 - everybody except my mom, from New Mexico, thought it was too hot. I thought I had toned it down enough for the pussies.)

I don't think of it as fire. I think of it as "full flavored". ;-)
Good Chili should be spicy. It doesn't have to be 4 Alarms to be good, but it should have enough pepper so you can taste it in each rich savory mouthful. It is like a friend of mine who is a caterer in "Soul Food". She makes a Habanero Pasta Salad that is to die for, but she is very sparing on the habanero - a little goes a lonnnnnnnnng way. I have a Jar of dried Habanero Powder which I expect will be a family heirloom, but you can't make Black Beans without it - it, it, it's sacrilegious to not use habaneros with Black Beans.
