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.

Tony's beat Old Bay for me. Great on everything from seafood to burgurs to duck. MMMM skillet fried mallard breast with Tony's; I can't wait for duck season.

Have to be BBQ sauce, probably Sweet Baby Ray's. While there are certianly better BBQ sauces there, if I'm only having one condiment the rest of my life, I think this provides the best combinations of versatility and quality.

there's a surprising bargain-level Canadian sauce thats similar, but I think is much better.
No Limits  or Sans Limites I should say.  So far, customs hasn't limited me in bringing a case home from vacation every summer.

Very versatile, can add to it to make different varieties (I love the wasabi mayo) and most importantly it is the foundation for tuna salad, egg salad, and chicken salad. I eat a lot of sandwiches, and use a lot of mayo. I'm surprised more people haven't gone with mayo quite frankly, especially this crowd. With all the chipatis I've made to put myself through school, I wonder if people know what a main ingredient in their chipati sauce is....
