condiments
Ketchup and mustard
Condiments are flavorings added to food at the table or during preparation—mustard, ketchup, mayonnaise, relish, hot sauce.
The term covers a wide range from simple salt and pepper to elaborate sauces.
Unlike spices used in cooking, condiments are typically applied by the eater to suit personal taste: Pass the condiments, please.
