Hi Heads,

Mary ran across some good pico de gallo the other day.  Think this is the
original, Mexican powder style, as opposed to the (Americanized) salsa type?
Made by Via Nueva in LA.  www.vianueva.com   The only other "pico de gallo"
I've had was in Mexican restaurants and was basically a salsa.  This powder
is "Salt and Mixed Hot Chili Peppers".

Also went to Cost Plus, I think, and picked up several Go Tan brand spice
mixes and sauces.  I think I've seen this brand mentioned here?  The Sambal
Manis was just wonderful on a modified Club 21 turkey burger I made the
other day.  Haven't tried the Sambal Oelek yet, or the Ajam Paniki mix, but
looking forward to it.  Any suggestions?

Also got some Thai "Chili" paste by Thai Kitchen.  Haven't tried it yet and
was wondering if the brand in general is good?

Hot regards,

Riley
