 Food for Thought 



Salsa originated with the Inca people. Salsa means sauce in Spanish.  The combination of tomatoes, peppers and spices can be traced to the Aztecs, Mayans and Incas. The Spaniards first encountered tomatoes after their conquest of Mexico in 1519-1521, which marked the beginning of the history of Salsa. Aztec lords combined tomatoes with chili peppers, ground squash seeds and ate them mainly as a condiment served on turkey, venison, lobster, and fish.  To read more about salsa click here.
