Though Trish and her bad boy types weren't exactly Kindra's style, she had to agree that Violet went for quiet and uninteresting. Sort of like mild salsa. Why even bother? You'd be better off just biting a tomato.
Trish reflects on the differences between her taste in men and her friend Kindra's preferences. While Trish is drawn to more adventurous and rebellious types, she acknowledges that Kindra's choice in partners tends to be safe and unexciting. This contrast leads Trish to question the appeal of such subdued relationships.
Using a playful analogy, Trish compares Kindra's dating choices to mild salsa, implying that there's a lack of flavor and excitement. She suggests that it might even be better to stick with something simple, like a plain tomato, rather than settling for partners who offer little in terms of passion or liveliness.
