Just because your boss brings in a batch of homemade salsa every Wednesday doesn’t mean someone else in the office can’t make a batch every now and then, too. Remember this before you tell your boss, “Wow, this is way better than the way you normally make it. What did you do differently?” This will be one of those times. #LFMF
What’s the fail? You can’t tell your boss someone elses salsa tastes better?
If your boss is proud of his average-at-best salsa, wouldn’t you think telling him that he’s essentially “doin’ it wrong!” would piss him off?
Maybe, but wouldn’t the boss be an adult who can handle a little criticism? Unless OP works in a kitchen and the boss is the chef, the salsa has nothing to do with the fact that he’s OP’s boss.
If he’s a chef, then that’s all the more reason to criticise his salsa. If everyone says “your salsa is good”, he will never try and improve his recipe to increase sales.
Also, you aren’t telling him “you’re doing it wrong”, you’re telling him “he’s doing it better”. If you grade your bosses salsa as a 9/10 and the other salsa as 10/10, well 9/10 is still VERY good.

Nice one
I hate how the person who never brings as much as a potato chip onto work always lives by the rule: If it’s out and open, it’s free game.
A low of stuff got “tainted” with some very hot sauce
you. are an idiot.
Hey, if it’s in there then it’s fair game to anyone who wants to eat it.
I knew someone like that. You could bring a small container of [insert] just for lunch, clearly mark it with your name, and leave your bloody fork (or whatever) in it, but if it was out and she wanted it, fair game.
Putting paprika on it, and a container of chili pepper beside it, worked wonders though.
If it’s out IT IS FAIR GAME.
If you want to bring something and share it, then you leave it out (possibly with a note saying “help yourself”).
If you DON’T want to share it, then put it in the fridge or, if it doesn’t require refrigeration, at your desk.
That’s like leaving a bowl of candy on your living room table and complaining when guests take some. It’s out in the open in a communal area, not put away. If your guests start rummaging around in your pantry, well that’s out of line. (unless you have an agreement)
Also, if you’re bringing something to share, you shouldn’t complain about who has some. You’re bringing it for the express purpose for people to have some, you shouldn’t be expecting other people to bring something later… unless you have an agreement like my group has : we take turns bringing doughnuts every friday.
