Hehehe! As you can see, it's what would be called a 'savory' salsa.
Probably cilantro heavy for most? Dunno! I just know the last time he
had some he tried to kiss me and I told him 'No Way Loverboy!'.

His alternatives are to add just a little sweet cane vinegar (which
also doesnt sound like a match to me but *he's the one eating it) and
some hot sweet chile powder blend (he prefers the Japan one we can get
locally but there are plenty of others that will do).
