Ketchup (or catsup) and mustard

tapwater
...I see from buschmaster's fridge pic that he keeps it refrigerated. I'll never understand why you'd want to put ice cold condiments on your hot food. It keeps just fine in the pantry. What's your choice....room temp or cold?

    Neither, won't touch the stuff. I am very picky and don't use any condiments.

    Bout the most extreme I get is barbeque sauce but only to cook with on the grill.

    refrigerated, can't stand fermented catsup. In the 50's I knew people that left butter on the table, but that does not make it a good idea.

    all my fixin's are in the fridge...partly because i like the temperature contrast...partly because it says to refrigerate after opening on the package. mostly because it prolongs the life of many condiments like A-1 and worchestershire sauce. lee and perins is the best.

    ...Guess I'm a minority. Does that make me eligible for entitlements? All mine stays in the pantry, even BBQ sauce, A-1, soy and worcestershire. There's enough acid and salt, that I never give it a thought. And, He Dog, my butter stays on the counter for up to a week. When the carotene coloring starts to turn orange, it's time to swap it out for fresh. I wouldn't do it with unsalted butter, though.

    Ketchup is the only thing we leave out of the fridge, that and peanut butter.

    It depends on where it happens to get put!

    It really don't matter to me either way as I seldom use it (expecially catsup as I used to haul the tomatoes from the fields to the places that made it. I got to see how it is made and have hardly touched it since).

    because it can and will spoil even though it is highly acidic, most will use it up before it does

    honey is the only food that will not spoil

    I keep it all on the counter - Audrey sees it - back in the fridge.

    WE keep peanut butter in the pantry, and I keep butter on the counter - how the hell can one spread COLD butter ??

    Keep soft margarine in the fridge. She uses margarine, I use butter.
