On the side of the Tapatio bottle, it says "es una salsa... muy salsa!" I know that advertising copy can be quite slangy and even poetic... what does this mean?

According to Wiki:

The product slogan is "Es una salsa... muy salsa!" ("It's a sauce that's... very saucy!")

Salsa means sauce in the Spanish language, and carries connotations of the spiciness common in Latin and Caribbean cuisine.

it's a sauce...very spicy (lively). Probably a play on the different possible meanings of the word salsa.

a similar pun could be used for picante (salsa picante)
