A General Dislike of Condiments

For no particular reason the past few days I have been reminded how much I really dislike condiments. Condiments are smelly. Condiments take up room in the refrigerator. (In fact I have a little rule about devoting only ONE door shelf to condiments in my refigerator . . . although I’m not sure anyone really realizes that except for me). Why would anyone want to ruin the natural taste of his or her food by slathering it with condiments? All you taste with condiments is . . . condiments. And they smell! There is nothing worse than the smell of ketchup, mustard, ranch dressing or mayonaise on someone else’s plate! It makes me want to stand at the counter and eat by myself.
