Condiment
The Television & Movie Wiki: for TV, celebrities, and movies.
A condiment is a substance applied to food, usually in the form of a sauce, powder, or spread, to enhance or improve the flavour. Condiments are typically smeared with knives, squirted, or sprinkled onto other foods.
Commercially prepared condiments are usually packaged in glass or plastic containers. Plastic has displaced glass in a number of applications where plastic's squeezability is an advantage, such as for ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, and other condiments with a paste-like consistency.
Some commercial venues (especially packaged meals dispensed by airlines and in some cafeterias), condiments are packaged in single-serving packets. Image:Wasabi-packet.jpg Image:Salt-packet.jpg
