There was a bumper crop of peppers, tomatoes & onions & cilantro one year. The local Padre at the church wanted to help & give thanks to God at the same time; so he had townspeople push the pews to the side & dump all the excess produce on the cool concrete floor. People were so happy and ecstatic in their praise that they started to stomp on all that produce and play music. They called the stuff on the floor "salsa" and ended up eating it. And they called the new dance they created, SALSA!
