I am wondering that what if I find myself in a country that is dietarily halal so I can get no bacon or other pork; it has a significant Hindu population so I can get no beef yet I am dying for a hamburger. OK, I find a halal cafe that serves camelburgers. What type of condiments might be available if ketchup and mustard are not?

:smiley: When I met my husband he told me that when he was growing up his family put grape jelly on grilled cheese sandwiches. I was shocked, and disgusted and said "This is how people from PA eat?" Then I tried it, after all how could I knock it without trying it, right? It IS delicious. Before you roll your eyes think cheese Danish. This is what it tastes like. I changed from having it with grape jelly to strawberry preserves. I bet it would be good with apple preserves too but haven't tried it. And I'll admit there have been times I've dipped a grilled cheese sandwich in mayo.

See so many adults slathering it on everything before they even taste their food. Why put on a sugary/vinergar glop on perfectly good tasting food.

You’re not from Pittsburgh, I can tell.

And lets not talk about those that dip pizza in ranch dressing.

I don't like the smell of ketchup, but I have no phobia or special loathing for it. I'm right with you on the pizza-dipping nightmare. In fact I'm a bit perplexed by the obsession with ranch dressing. People down here dip their buffalo wings in the stuff. And if you ask for blue cheese dressing for your hot wings, they charge extra, or just add blue cheese crumbles to their ranch dressing, or both. And some restaurants "feature" ranch dressing as the condiment for ALL their sandwiches. That stuff is just nasty. Ranch dressing's only saving grace is that it isn't Miracle Whip.

First off, you wouldn't eat a camel meat. That's kinda like eating horse meat.

You'd probably have a falafel, or a black bean pattie in a pita pocket, with plenty of tahini, or hummus if you want something more pasty than tahini. You might have lamb, with tahini, tziziki, or mint leaves. Or roast eggplant with zaatar in a creamy yogurt sauce with other veggies over rice.

SO many amazing awesome choices for halal dining. And don't forget the Halavah with pistachios for dessert.

I have eaten horse meat as a child in the US and as an adult in France and found it pretty good. I love lamb, hummus and eggplant but found mutton tough and strong in a Navajo stew. Camel steaks are available at specialty markets although I never tried them.

I am wondering what the OP means by white sauce and hot sauce. There are so many hot sauces out there.

Next Saturday I am going to get some menudo. I enjoy a variety of vittles.

Pretty sure white sauce is a yogurt-based sauce, like tzaziki. Hot sauce would be a chili sauce, either red or green.

I always ate field rations in those places.

Ranch dressing, from some article i read recently, is now the number one condiment. Beats out ketchup, mayo and mustard.

The combination of spices is just so horrible, it makes everything taste like salty, rotting mayonnaise. Nothing against mayo OR buttermilk - but combining the two with garlic, mustard, and salt is just - wrong.

Seriously??? This isn’t a real post, right?
