Chili Garlic Sauce

Túong Ot Tói Vietnam (Aka Rooster Sauce)

Not actually designed to be a salsa, but works really well for the adventuresome.

Bright red chili with obvious chili seeds. Very salty and spicy. Vinegar is a primary flavor and garlic is third after the chili.

Not for the faint of heart. You can feel the heat in your stomach after a few bites.

If it wasn't so salty that it seems unhealthy, it would merit a higher rating.

3 stars. 

Jack's Special Medium Salsa

All natural. Garden Fresh Gourmet. America's #1 Award Winning Salsa.

Slightly sweet, not very spicy for a medium. Mostly tomato, fairly watery. Blended well for a garden salsa with a smooth chunky texture.

Good flavor (especially if you like tomatoes), but nothing special. No pizazz. If you want a salsa that doesn't offend anyone, this is it.

Purchased at Costco.  3 stars.
