    It's an Asian style hot sauce. Check that out and Scotch Bonnet sauce if you can find it.

    I used to be a mayo girl, but now I use spicy brown mustard. Only like 5 calories per teaspoon. When I do use mayo I love the Dukes Light Mayo w/ Olive Oil. It's like half the calories and fat of regular.

    I really hate spicy and mustard (all of the flavors). I am Puerto Rican and I used Adobo on almost everything. But, it's high in sodium. What other alternatives are there? I heard Mrs. Dash is really good and low to no sodium.

    I use the Sazon packets without the added salt.

    Hot sauce, mustard, balsamic vinegar, Stubb's Anytime Sauces (love the green chili and sweet black pepper). Not a condiment but I really love Chipotle pepper - I add that to so many things.

    There's a spice company called Penzey's and in addition to all the normal spices and herbs, they have all different kinds of amazing flavor combos to shake all over your food. Many don't even have salt and they're still amazing.

    Adobo has a low sodium version out there. It has a light blue top.

    Did I write this? lol

    I have the same problem, I drown everything in some kind of condiment and it's been one of the hardest habits to break. I've also started using mustard a lot more, but of course, that doesn't work for everything. It's not the best option, but sometimes I'll use a no/low fat dressing instead. With certain things I know I'm going to want a particular condiment and that a substitute isn't going to cut it and then I just try to find a way to make it fit.

    I love Frank's Red Hot. It's like Tabasco without the vinegar-y kick.

    I also use the Frank's Slammin Sriracha, it's pretty decent, goes on a little thicker and you don't need much
