Valentina is a Mexican hot sauce manufactured by Salsa Tamazula of Guadalajara. It is common in Mexico, and is commonly used in the United States' Hispanic culture.Although Valentina comes in two varieties—hot and extra hot—the sauce is known mostly for its taste as opposed to its spice. The taste can be described as a citrus flavor with a spicy aftertaste. It is often used on cucumbers and many varieties of fruit, such as watermelon, oranges, and pineapple, with lemon and salt added. Most enthusiasts refer to it as an authentic hot sauce, although in most Mexican homemade salsas, vinegar is seldom used, if ever. Among hot sauce enthusiasts it is very well rated, usually scoring 4 or more stars. It serves mostly as a dipping sauce or a hint of spiciness to most foods since its citrus-like taste rarely overpowers the taste of the food on which it is being applied.

There is a very old, classic Greek song entitled "Valentina". It is about a girl who has a bohemian life style, she does things unsuitable for a girl of her age, like having short hair, smoking, driving a car, hanging around night-clubs, and as the song predicts she will be soon wearing trousers! LOL! That's what the old times were like!
