"  Juanita Carmack, 53 Taco Chic Salsa Fresh and bottled salsas Launched 2003 Rathdrum, Idaho  tacochicsalsa.com  When I was growing up, homemade salsa was always in the fridge. My mom would make it using my great-grandmother&amp;#039;s 100-year-old recipe. It has a lot more flavor than what you find in the store. I started making it myself and people liked it, and would tell me that I needed to figure out a way to bottle it. I was unemployed at the time, so I did some research. Who knew that salsa was the number-one condiment in America? Now it takes about eight to 10 hours to make the salsa, which we do in a building I bought and named the Salsa Factory. My husband does all of the deliveries and the labeling. Once I decided to do this, I never looked back. Looking back was just too overwhelming. I wanted to keep the ball rolling. We&amp;#039;re in about 60 stores now, and I&amp;#039;m looking for a distributor.

Our customers love them, so I realized I need to take the tamale business seriously.
