I don't have a favorite condiment (unless you count salt and pepper) but my husband lives and breathes by ketchup and peanut butter. Oh, from Michigan here.

Bertolli Alfredo With Aged Parmesan Cheese Sauce is not the "favorite condiment" of the state and most people have probably never heard of it.

It’s the most popular brand of Sriracha in the US.

With that said, I live in FL, and have for most of my life and I’ve never seen French’s Crispy Jalepenos even at a grocery, let alone as a condiment in a restaurant. But you will find Huy Fong Sriracha on almost every restaurant (that’s not a chain) table in FL. Methinks this list is highly inaccurate.

I find it hard to believe that Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ Barbecue Sauce is the favorite in my state.

Folks in Louisiana put Tabasco sauce on everything.

Merriam-Webster defines Condiment as, "something used to enhance the flavor of food especially : a pungent seasoning."

Around here those are part of a snack or meal. Heck, just hand over the jar and a spoon and we're good.

head to the Breakfast King (at the corner of Santa Fe & Mississippi) for chicken fried steak and eggs, cholula or Tabasco hot sauce is my preferred condiment.

1) Nutella and peanut butter are not "condiments."

2) Coconut oil is DEFINITELY not a "condiment."

3) The top condiment in Idaho and Utah is "fry sauce" which is half ketchup and half mayonnaise.

4) Does "Louisiana hot sauce" ring a bell?

I've never used it in my life for anything, and I don't know of anyone who has. And it's not even a condiment.

It definitely would not be in the aisle with ketchup, mustard, relishes, steak sauces, tartar sauce, Worcestershire sauce, etc. If one could find it, it would be with the cooking oils is my guess...

along with the corn, canola and peanut oils. It certainly isn't a condiment, and I don't know anyone who cooks with it.

There were only a few bottles and they were very expensive. I don't think it's a big seller.

Also considered a “good fat” if you are on something like paleo diet.

Has a good flavor but def not a condiment!

the number one condiment. I never tried it until I went to Europe. It's ok, but far from a favorite. I like brown and spicy mustards - dijon, horseradish, any kind of mustard except honey mustard. I also love malt vinegar on my fish and chips.

In what alternate universe?

A question asked almost every time you order something in a restaurant is "Red or green?" And the answer (usually "Christmas&quot has nothing to do with garlic salt.

There have been smell issues and lawsuits. It appears they mostly have a handle on the issue and will not move to Texas as threatened.

Crystal hot sauce included in a brown paper bag. Park out on the causeway and watch the ships come in and sip a few cold Buds. Maybe fish or bait cast. There may or may not have been some herbal enhancements involved. 60's - 70's.

to slather on some coconut oil, or Wishbone salad dressing?

Sausage gravy is a better condiment. And maybe eggs
