With Fourth of July right around the corner and the plethora of red, white, and blue foods, it dawned on me I wanted to try and make my own condiments for the holiday.

What if a younger guest mistakes one of these candles for the real thing and gets burned?

Condiments can be surprisingly controversial. I just don't understand how some people can hate mustard, for example, while other folks I know would bathe in ketchup if they could. So with all this talk of Memorial Day grilling, I'm wondering which condiment you'd choose.

The other day I ordered an egg bagel sandwich and when I opened the bag, I noticed that they had included a packet of ketchup. At first I was a little bit surprised, but then I remembered that I always enjoy ketchup on my scrambled eggs. So it makes me wonder, do you like ketchup on your eggs?
