Case study #179 on why clearly defining your terms in a study matters. Village hot sauce, out Grand Forks ND, could maybe charitably be described as a mild salsa. It’s definitely not a hot sauce in generally accepted terms and the only reason hot sauce is in the name is that the producers really know their ND customers. It sells in large bottles instead of those little bottles where a couple of drops will do you real hot sauce. The daring wild ND people serve it with tortilla chips. I’m certain three NDSU football watch parties was enough to push it to number one in ND.
