There's not much I can add. The salsa entries were all over the map, with vastly different kinds, ingredients, and textures. A few were like "WTF?" but there were many that were excellent (one of which was Marco's). All four of the finalists received very high marks from me, so whoever wins I feel will truly deserve it.
Can someone post the latest vendor list if they have the insider info?? It would be helpful to visitors. Thanks!
Thanks man!!! I got your email about it to, I appreciate it.

2009 Vendor List:
Defcon
Who else do you need? Defcon will be there!
Too funny man.
Strange thing is I can't seem to find the vendor list on Jungle Jim's site, kinda weird.

It could be that since they have a new person coordinating the WOF event this year, that they could be running a little behind.

Thanks for the list. Actually, Big Dawg has backed out.
I am still awaiting the updated list. Jim Beckett, the man now in charge will contact all the blogs as I have given them the various contact info. It should be coming sooner than later, so please have patience. I know there are some new ones to that list. Not sure if Marco's is having a booth or just coming to represent his salsa in the salsa contest. I hope he has a booth, so we can check out all his sauces.
It is noteworthy, that because of the changes for the show, they are still taking newcomers to the show for under $200/booth. So if you have a company and want into the show, hurry fast while they still last. I am sure if you sell pepperoni sticks, it might be a blast at the show. Even t-shirts, paintings might stand out in the crowd. At the price for a 2 day event it is hard to beat. PLUS, anyone getting a booth at Jungle Jim's will also get their product put into Jungle Jim's International Market as well. Great news for all you beginnings out there. Just tell Jim, Buddah sent ya, and he will give you the hookup.
Bisummo is also out of the show unfortunately.

Bummer.

That really sucks.
Just to let anyone who is an inspiring fiery food maker know that there is still some booth space left at the show, and if you want a booth it is still only $175. PLUS, you will get your product bought and sold at Jungle Jim's long after the show is over. An incentive for anyone looking to sell their product. PLUS, this from Jim Beckett who is in charge of the show:
"Oh and for our vendor partners let’s not forget the Friday night cocktail party at The Oscar Event Center featuring an open bar and complimentary appetizers beginning at 5:00 p.m., or the continental breakfast Saturday and Sunday mornings in the Oscar meeting room.
Some new additions to the show (including the salsa contest) include having four portable restaurants set up in front of The Oscar Event Center during show hours selling BBQ food and roasted peppers and a brand new Harley Davidson Bike sitting in the main entry way! The infamous Defcon Hot Wing Eating Contest at Buffalo Wings and Rings will begin about 7:00 on Saturday Night along with a wrap-up dinner at Papadeux’s Restaurant on Sunday night. Wow, what a power packed week end of fire!! Looking forward to meeting all of you on August 1st and 2nd .
"
There isn't one show out in the Fiery Food industry that is trying to make their vendors happy like Jungle Jim's is. I give them a lot of credit in trying to make their show bigger and better. So if you were hedging or not to go to this show, think no more, it will be en event worth going, as well as before and afterward.
Pass the word along to your favorite vendor, and let's make the list below grow!
