The Sidekicks

We all use condiments and added sauces to our foods. Here is list of the most common that I use and what their blocks are. Most of these are added for flavor in larger overall portions and therefore are minimal in the effect on your overall blocks. Some, however, have more blocks than you may think...so just be aware.
Hot sauce- 0 blocks
Yellow mustard (Dijon as well)- 0 blocks
Ketchup- 2 TB = 1 block carbs
Relish- 2 TB= 1 block carbs
Salsa- 2 TB 1/4 block carbs
Soy sauce- 1 TB= 1/4 block carbs
Mayonnaise- 1 TB= 3 blocks fat
Light Mayonnaise- 1 TB = 1 block fat

Heinz makes a sugar-free ketchup that is decent.

Bwahahaa!! I remember leaving some zonies in consternation with my "how many blocks is mustard?" question. Great info. You work so hard on this site, thanks so much. It's my favorite zone resource.
