Yeah the data and methodology are faulty. I have never seen, nor would I even know how to find, salsa (as in the Mexican variety) in Spain. However, the word salsa simply means sauce, so I’m sure people in Spain were searching for sauce recipes and they just lumped them all together as Mexican salsa in this wacked out…

There’s a new limited edition Marmite with chilli, apparently quite strong, as it has to be to fight it out with the Marmite.
Came down here to say this. These aren’t the most popular condiments, they’re the ones most popular for DIY.
That comic is delightful!
The definition of "condiment" is getting stretched pretty thin here! I know guacamole can be a condiment, but would bet folks see it more as food. Maple syrup and Nutella? Hummus? Condiment would be the third or fourth food term I would use for any of these.
Gotta love Kinja! (Not!)
Also, the three most common seem to be guac, salsa, and hummus. These are all things that people might want to make for themselves and search for a recipe. Nobody searches for a ketchup recipe.
That supposed research is so fantastically bad that it should be a case study. If you read the details it’s pretty obvious they’re only looking at Google searches for common terms for English speakers, which explains why they have tartar sauce for Japan and mayo for India.
I’m sure ketchup, mustard, may, etc. sell 100X as guacamole.
I’m looking at it as analogous to the Vegemite search by brand:
Guacamole is definitely not a condiment.
This research brought to you by Big Avocado.
Sal-saaaa
what about catsup?
As I understand it, this research was based on online searches. There might be a big flaw here, related to your well-founded comment that “searches don’t equal purchases.”. Is it not possible that most folks are unlikely to search for their favorite condiments because they already know everything they want to or need…
An onlooker captured video of the ducks wandering into Bagel World in Brooklyn.
Don’t you get the under-notes of coal smoke on the toast with that method?

“Samwiches” gets to me. Uuuuhhhh (shudders.)
It’s called “fried slice” and it’s been part of a Full English/Scottish/Irish Breakfast for as long as there’s been a Full Breakfast. If you’re serving dry-toasted bread with a full, you’re bastardizing it. Worse than not using Heinz beans, even.
