What's your favorite condiment....ketchup, mustard, mayo?

I was looking in the fridge for something while in the back of my mind I was formulating a post. I guess I think better when my brain is cool! Anyway, I remember one I did years ago regarding condiments.
Since I have a problem with dairy and other foods, the mayo is not my choice. We use very little of it. The exception is in the summer when I make my husband his favorite sandwich - BLT - with fresh garden 'maters and home grown lettuce.
I have always loved mustard. There are actually 4 or 5 different mustards in the fridge. In my younger days I put mustard on everything - including burgers and pizza.
However, ketchup is my go-to condiment. I have been known to put it on baked potatoes! I go through it fast since I found a recipe I like for bbq sauce and it uses a lot of ketchup.
Now I ask you - what is your favorite condiment?

Hands down mustard. I don't like mayo except on rare occasions when it is a lightly used ingredient in something like macaroni salad.

Hellman's Mayonaise is definitely my first choice! I put mayo on a LOT of things. Sandwiches, fries, burgers, chicken, and tortilla chips too. =)

@AbbyGreenhill Yes, I love it! Lol. Maybe I'm weird. I love mayo on burgers too. I have done it all my life since I was a kid, used to drive my mom crazy.

@LovingMyBabies The only time I used to use mayo not on a sandwich (when I could eat mayo) was when I used it in chocolate cake.

Mayo on fries? In the south they automatically put mayo on burgers, drives my husband crazy.

In the last year I found ketchup to be too acid to be usually enjoyable. I also don't really like tomatoes.
I used to be crazy for ketchup when I was a kid, like putting in on white bread and just eating it. 
I like mustard quite a lot, but it is not as common as ketchup and mayo, so when I go dining out, I usually have mayo instead. And I used to despise mayo when I was a kid.
My taste changed completely through the years.

I think many peoples' taste change over the reason for different reasons. When I make the bbq sauce I always put some sugar which cuts that acid...but I can't do that if I use it on a Roast Beef sandwich LOL!

@AbbyGreenhill I never heard of vegan mayo. We do not use mayo or mustard a lot, because it does not happen often that I prepare sandwiches.

@LadyDuck All the vegans on facebook have been talking about it. I saw it in Ingles the last time we were there...think I'll read the label and see what is in it.
I put mustard on burgers sometimes and on hot pretzels and on regular pretzels!

I guess it would be ketchup because I use it to makes sauces and on my burgers when I have them. I do not like yellow mustard but I do like honey mustard or the different flavored mustards. I use mayo for BLTs and other sandwiches.

I eat a lot of ham sandwiches and yellow mustard or grey poupon is what I used - my husband has some hot and spicy mustards that would burn my mouth if I ate them. We had company from NJ years ago - big eaters - and the husband used an entire jar of mayo the size of the one in the photo - in two days. He piled it on a mile high!

@abbeygreenhill I'm afraid I can't tolerate the thought of putting ketchup on food. Or Mayo unless it is proper mayonnaise made fresh in the proper way. My family and friends don't get it.

I don't eat mayo at all, so I would never make homemade. Everyone has different tastes. Some of what I eat or don't eat is due to stomach issues.

I buy bbq sauce trying to find one that isn't smoky flavor - I can't eat smoked foods or things that taste smoky. That's why I make my own - which my husband doesn't like he likes the smoky kind.

Most of the time it is ketchup. I like Mayo too. No mustards for me. At times, I can cook a quick sauce replacement in a few minutes.

I love all of them but it depends on what I'm eating on which I like to use. I like ketchup with anything fried, mayo with any salad and fish, mustard with any sandwiches. I also like mayo and mustard together or ketchup and mayo together. Never with mayo and mustard though.

@AbbyGreenhill In Subway sandwich I told the guy I want mayo only and he go ahead and put a good helping of mustard on my sandwich. And then wrapped it. Then I repeat myself, that mayo only he looked liat me . And the manager stepped in and said he will prepare another sandwich for me. No fuss and good service. I'm not sure about what happened to the guy after that.

Hummus is a dip isn't it? I've never had it, just from what I see on TV.

@AbbyGreenhill Some folks call hummus a dip. We don't. Its mashed beans and garlic and sesame and oil if you like and lots of lemon. Healthiest if home made. My other condiment is pesto.
