33. I've taken to making my own ketchup

The store brands suck so much. Whatever happened to flavor? Last ones I liked were Sir Kensingtons and Rao’s but both were discontinued. It’s so easy to make your own… tomato paste, lime juice, onion powder, allspice and maple syrup (or other sweetener… brown sugar, honey, etc. ). Just stir it up to taste.

As for the rest of the burger condiments…. Mustard (don’t get me started), sweet pickle, diced onion, and cheese… on a potato bun.
