Best Condiment List!

Check out this article for a list of some of the best condiments in the world!

There's several that I've had on there, and completely agree with. I don't know how I'd like without mayo (regardless of whether it's full fat or one of the several light versions) or Sriracha (and they're even better when put together - maybe we'll get Tim to list his full recipe). I also really love currywurst, although right now my fridge is stocked with a mild version, and I'd like to see if there's a spicy one available. Can't find currywurst near you? I pick mine up at a local German pub - Mr. Dunderbak's. Dunderbak's is a chain, so they may have one near you, but also try places like Cost Plus World Market - they carry it as well.

Cholula truly makes my top 5 list, and is fantastic (hot sauce that has a great taste). I also think fish sauce (and fresh ginger) makes most asian food taste better - a little will go a long way and make your food really pop!

I also completely agree that Heinz makes the best ketchup (YES KETCHUP NOT CATSUP) and won't stock anything else in the fridge (except the currywurst).

I do disagree with a few on there. I've never been able to stomach vegemite for example (sorry my South African friends) and while I think tahini has good uses (hummus, babaganoush), I'm not a fan of it on its own.

So what are your top 5 list? I'm sure mine varies from day to day, but right now I'll go with:
Frank's Hot Sauce
Cholula
Horseradish Mustard
Mayo
Peanut Sauce

Heinz Going to Play Hide the Pickle

Reuters reports that Heinz is taking the pickle out of their logo.

So what are they going to find to replace the pickle on their ketchup products?  Oh what in god's name can replace such a natural marrage of pickle and ketchup? Oh right...a tomato! Whew! Look for Heinz to pull its pickle sometime this year. 

Condiment Bust!

So the Sand Pearl, while truly beautiful (yep, we failed to take pics of our rooms - yikes! See why I make up for it later), was not high on the condiment rating list. In fact, I have no condiments really worth mentioning (from the resort or from nearby Frenchy's - although their lime pina coladas were fantastic!). I suppose we may not have tried very hard, but condiments are usually pretty easy to come by.

Alas - our one saving grace from our stay? This snapshot of the cute little condiments that arrived at our 2 a.m. room service snack session (please note the HUGE burger in the background - which we failed to finish).

I recently saw these mini Heinz jars at our local grocery - one in what I originally thought was mayo, but turned out to be a creamy looking balsamic vinegar sauce. I'll pick one up next time I find one, and use it to redeem my total Sand Pearl condiment failure.
