- Chili Oil Chili oil is a condiment made by infusing hot peppers or chili flakes in a neutral oil, typically used as a flavoring and heat component in cooking and at-table seasoning. It contains capsaicin, the compound responsible for chili pepper's pungency, along with the oil's inherent fatty acids and fat-soluble pigments such as carotenoids.
- Ketchup Ketchup is a sweet, tangy tomato-based condiment made from tomato concentrate, vinegar, sugar, and spices. It contains added sugar and sodium, and provides lycopene from tomatoes — a carotenoid that is well-absorbed from processed tomato products.
- Mayonnaise Mayonnaise is an emulsified condiment made from egg yolks, oil, and acid (vinegar or lemon juice). It is calorie-dense and high in omega-6 polyunsaturated fat, making portion awareness relevant for overall fat and energy intake.
- Preserved Lemon Preserved lemon is a salt-cured citrus condiment common in North African cuisine. It contributes significant sodium and small amounts of vitamin C to dishes and is used primarily as a flavoring agent.
