I scored a good deal on tomatoes and jalapenos at a yard sale yesterday, so I just finished making a batch of this stuff around 1 quart in volume. It's so simple and good that fuck you if you don't like it. You can probably find the ingredients just about anywhere to make it yourself. Just mix together diced tomato, jalapeno, onion and cilantro then squeeze lemon or lime juice over the mixture. Keep it raw!
Fuckin' A, man, pico de gallo!
Here some is decorating a batch of delicious nachos (not this current batch - I think maybe I posted this photo before on a nachos thread.)

edit - the redundant thread preventer brought up a bunch of Vincent Gallo threads. PICO DE GALLO IS UNRELATED TO AND BETTER THAN VINCENT GALLO! Not that it takes much.

pico de gallo is wonderful. though I am a bit worried about buying vegetables from a yard sale.

The garden bearing the vegetables was right there in view! It had an organic compost heap next to it and everything.

I certainly wouldn't go that far. But I've always been a raw vegetables guy, so I do generally prefer it to cooked salsas.

there are things that are better than pico de gallo but there aren't many of them

I gotta make my own, cos I don't like pico the usual way. But basically it's required for any remotely Latin foods. Fuck it, just put radishes and pico and lime and avocado on everything.

Oh god yes radishes!
