"Pico de Gallo is just another type of salsa fresca (fresh salsa) which includes fresh uncooked ingredients. It translates as "rooster's beak" and is names *possibly* because of the chopped up texture, resembling bird food. Or so it has been said. In any case it makes a nice condiment to serve with Mexican food."
