Sometimes, I open the fridge (or a cabinet) and just see some condiment (mostly hot sauce) and realize it will dictate my diet for the next month.
Like today. I opened my bachelor/nihilist fridge and saw a bottle of Walmart steak sauce. Now, I know, I guess I must eat steak inspired meals, or ground beef inspired meals, or whatever but my favorite is over easy eggs with steak sauce. Or, any sandwich. Also, boiled potatoes, because I am a genius that hates themself. Also green vegetables.
Sriracha is similar. I see it and think, “oh, you TEASE!” and then put on a pot of rice and start blanching all my veggies.
I see some local “Louisiana Hot Sauce” in my hot sauce cabinet? Looks like I’m eating pizza for a few weeks because I love the dipping options.
I’m sure this has been a big, annoying, reddit/Lemmy monstrosity of a conversation already; I just wanted to ask what anyone else was assigned to eat by the Condiment Royal Family/Lineage/deity to obey this morning.
Every time I open the fridge and see Sweet Baby Ray’s I have to fight the urge not to squirt some directly into my mouth. Does that count?
My husband used to love Sweet Baby Ray’s but now he says he prefers City Barbecue Original. Just throwing it out there in case you wanted to try it.
I put it on peanut buttered toast :D
I love it too. I make a big batch of boiled chicken breasts, then rip them to shreads and cover them with a whole bottle of Sweet Baby Ray’s. Mix it all up and I have Shredded BBQ chicken for lunch for a week. Just the best.
