Well, it's pretty much like your average jarred salsa
but it had cherries in it and is fairly sweet. Cherry
Republic makes a hot version and a mild version. The hot
version is not horribly hot (at least to me) so that's
what I always get. You should check out the Cherry
Republic web site. They make a lot of great things
with cherries.

I just wonder why these things don't come with some sort of
protective sheath. They're lethal! :-) I was wondering where
to store it - not in the drawer with most of my utensils - don't
want to rip my hand to shreds reaching in for the spatula.
Decided to put it in the "less-used" utensil drawer.

Well, I don't either, really, but it would be awesome
with some weed. ;-)
