Favorite store-bought condiment?
What's your favorite store-bought sauce/vinaigrette/condiment that you can use for just about anything? Grilled pork, roasted veggies, steamed fish; you get the idea!

Sounds like this could be two different questions. Favorite condiment and most versatile condiment.
If there was just one, It'd be Hellmann's Mayonnaise hands down. In this case, it's probably the most versatile as well because I use it on sandwiches, in salads such as chicken, tuna, potato and pasta and as a base for aiolis mixing it with sriracha, chipotles, etc.

Not to hijack the thread, but this is something I have been thinking about.
Anyone make their own ""Zac" sauce?
I love the stuff and get as many little packs that come with the meal. They also sell them for .25 cents.
I buy 4 each time I go. Would like to learn the recipe or ingredient list.

I would have to say Mayonnaise for the same reasons as Andy: Shrimp salad, tuna salad, chicken salad etcetra .. I buy a Spanish Brand called Ligeresa .. or the Hellman´s, I buy, which is manufactured in Holland ..

I like Hellmann's too. I don't get all the fuss about Dukes.

There aren't many store-bought condiments I like. Hellman's pales in comparison to homemade mayo.
I guess if I have to choose something it would be Cholula's Chiptole sauce. That stuff is pretty good!

In my family it would have to be Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing for the same reasons listed by Andy and Sagittarius. I mixed up a can of tuna one day and Pirate fell in love with it over mayo. I mentioned it to Spike, so he tried it. New convert. Even my daughter.

Best Foods/Hellmanns is also my choice by far. I special ordered 3 jars of Duke's once after reading all the hoopla about it and I couldn't even finish the first jar after being spoiled to Best Foods. I may as well throw out the other two jars.
