North Dakota’s Absolute Favorite Salsa On Cinco De Mayo

There was a recent nationwide study finding each state's favorite salsa.

No surprise in North Dakota.  It's a salsa that I can literally drink.  I'm not kidding.  It's awesome on tacos, chips, burritos, french fries, burgers, you name it.

Where I come from, my hometown of Grand Forks, North Dakota, this salsa is available in just about every convenience store in town.  Unfortunately, the only places you can buy this salsa in Bismarck are in grocery stores.  I'm thankful for at least that, but it sure would be more convenient to be able to purchase this delicious plastic bowl of salsa goodness in places other than Walmart, Family Fare, or Cash Wise Foods.

You guessed it, I'm talking about Village Salsa or hot sauce as some people call it.

It's available in mild or hot.  Which by the way, even the hot version isn't all that hot.  It's made right here in North Dakota in my hometown of  Grand Forks and is becoming very popular.  It is so popular, that in places like Minneapolis, St. Paul has begun carrying the product.   They had so many requests from North Dakota people who had moved down to the Twin Cities, that some grocery stores started carrying it like Cub Foods or even Target.

According to a Newsnation poll, Villiage Salsa is indeed North Dakota's favorite salsa.  South Dakota's favorite is "Burman's", Minnesota's is "Franks RedHot" and Montana's is "Cholula."

I recently asked the fine folks at Cenex in Mandan if they would look into carrying Villiage Hot Sauce. 

I told them they literally wouldn't be able to keep it in stock. Mike the manager said he's looking into finding it.  I hope he does.  In the meantime, join me in asking the C-Stores around Bismarck Mandan to sell Village Salsa.  Let's make this happen for the sake of our taste buds.

Happy Cinco De Mayo!
