GROSS! These are the Weird Condiments Upstate New Yorkers Use
Not everyone uses traditional condiments and some of these choices made by Upstate New Yorkers are questionable.
If you think about it anything can be a condiment or a topping if you want it to be. The big question is how out of the ordinary is your favorite one? Would it make people raise an eyebrow or worse, gag?
Obviously taste is totally subjective and not everyone is going to like the same things. As a matter of fact sometimes you can totally skip the condiments if whatever your eating has enough flavor in the first place. So how do we define what a condiment even is?
Condiment
According to the literal dictionary:
something used to enhance the flavor of food
I could see some of the options given as good choices. Others not so much.
- Steak sauce
- blood (okay, settle down)
- Thai curry paste
- Honey
- Spit (what?)
I think the only one I am guilty of using as a non-traditional one is probably thousand island dressing. I've put that on many things. Also hot sauce on hot dogs. Don't knock it until you try it.
