OT: One Condiment, Forever

Submitted by Steve Breaston… on

Everything I eat is a vehicle for condiments. Thus, I was presented a real conundrum last night at dinner: if I had to live the rest of my life and only had one condiment to use, which would I choose? 

Please be as specific as possible instead of categorical (i.e. saying Frank's instead of hot sauce). "Condiments" by nature is is pretty broad, but for the fun of it we can include dressings, dips, things that can be squeezed, ladeled, spooned, etc.

like it.  Ray's makes a honey BBQ that I like in small doses, but it is too thick.  I have found myself leaning more toward the thinner/spicier BBQ sauces.

Kewpie Mayo.

It has MSG, which is probably the reason why it is so good.. I had it once at a friends house and I can't see myself going back to regular mayo.

Mix Kewpie with Sriracha and you have a great sauce.

I would probably go with malt vinegar. Being a sucker for fish and chips and honestly preferring it to ketchup (actually, I am not a fan of ketchup in general, though I can tolerate it - I know that makes me weird) when it comes to fries in general, that would work for me. I have also used it in marinades, so it wouldn't necessarily affect my love of grilled things either.
