Deep dives
Grape Jelly on Pizza and Mixing Condiments
Some people have unique condiment preferences, such as putting grape jelly on pizza or mixing different condiments together. While these choices may seem strange to some, personal taste differences and experimentation are valid.
Ketchup, Mustard, and Mayonnaise as Main Condiments
Ketchup is often considered to be the main condiment in the Western world, due to its ubiquity and popularity. However, opinions may vary, and other condiments like mustard and mayonnaise also have significant followings. The main condiment can be subjective and depend on personal preferences.
Ranch Dressing and Mayonnaise Relationship
Ranch dressing is not simply flavored mayonnaise, as it contains a wider range of ingredients such as buttermilk, various herbs, and tangy elements like lemon juice or vinegar. Ranch dressing has a distinct flavor profile and is known for its versatility.
Rant Drawer
Having a stocked drawer with condiment packets, like ranch dressing, is not a crime. As long as the packets are shelf-stable and provide convenience, it is a personal preference that allows easy access to favorite condiments.
Grandmother's Unusual Food Combinations
Some people have unique tastes and preferences when it comes to food combinations, like putting grape jelly on pepperoni pizza or dipping candy cane-flavored cookies into onion dip. While these combinations may seem unusual to most, personal preferences can vary and should be respected.
