Infinitely practical, [infidel]! And don't forget to mention its defensive capabilities in case you're being chased by murderous thugs, black cloaked villains, or missionaries -- a quick and well placed shot of Chinese mustard and pepper will keep them distracted long enough for you to dash into the local pub for rest and refreshment before heading out again!

Perhaps a whole wardrobe, each garment dispensing a different condiment. |
|
|
sorry I don't have time to check, but I'm positive we have one of these [edit: well we do now] |

Oops! I just snorted wasabi through my nose. |

I can't help but notice the omission of kimchi from your list
of condiments. Personally, I would relish the opportunity
to walk around wearing a hat filled with fermented chum. |
|
|
....does turn up (sort of) in a Terry Pratchett story, in the Arch-chancellor's hat I believe, but then again, everything turns up in one of those, sooner or later. |
|
|
It's under etc, [Alter], along with Tahini, Yoghurt &
Garlic, Hommous, Sambal Oelek and about 5000 other
sauces. |
|
|
Having said that, I consider Kimchi a salad rather than
a condiment, though the Koreans would disagree
with me. I've watched them put it on spaghetti
bolognaise that I made for them. |
|
|
..and if it breaks? What is that new scent and colour to your hair? Mustard? |
|
|
That's why we added a shampoo to the cruet set, [xandram]. |
|
|
Yes, there, those tall things in the middle of the table. That's 'S' for shampoo and 'P' for conditioner. You may need a bigger finger bowl. |
|
|
[edit] Hmm... That came out nastier than I intended. Sorry. |
|
|
I guess I thought kimchi was a condiment because the only
Koreans I know put it on _everything_, but I am fully aware
that the North Korean expatriat population of Lewiston,
Maine (site of quite a few refugee communities, for some
reason) is not representative of the Korean demographic as
a whole, and also because the only kimchi available in a
region so far from its nation of origin is a cheap, mass-
produced paste that I can only assume is as revolting as
the genuine article. |
|
|
They probably put it on everything to drown out the local spices. |
|
|
Maine has no local spices, although, as we are but simple,
filthy, uneducated, and superstitious club-wielding
primitives, we have been known to sprinkle powdered
moose shit on our breakfast cereal. It drives away the foul
humoures and entices the spirit of the flame to warm our
bodies when the gods of winter unleash thier frozen fury. |
|
|
You put moose-shit on *breakfast cereal* ? How gauche. |
|
|
Why, what do you put it on? |
|
|
nothing before noon, that's certain. Who wants to fight horseflies for food first thing in the morning ? |
|
|
Why not just piss on your cereal, [Alter]? It would
improve the flavour of most of those sickly sweet
concoctions USians eat for breakfast. |
|
|
The best idea since "every liquid I need gloves". |

|
|
One year in Pusan, South Korea. Yes, they do it on everything. And then there was the mayonnaise on the pizzas..different country, different ways. |
