Word is out on the streets that there is going to be a mustard shortage. Will this be a big deal in the food/condiment world or pass like a fart in the wind? You choose.

Ketchup belongs at the kiddie table. Mustard is the King of condiments.

i agree, though ketchup and mayo are probably more versatile.
but if you said you can only have one condiment for a snack or meal, i would definitely choose something with mustard

I figure:
Mustard - the world wouldn't miss it much
Mayo - there'd be hefty fist-fights
Ketchup - worse than Mad Max

Ketchup masks the taste of your food, so it belongs no where near anything other than maybe french fries. And you can dip fries in just about anything, so ketchup shouldn't be missed by anyone older than 12.
Mustard is versatile, there's way more to it than just French's yellow.
I love mayo but I get some people hate it. So 50/50 opinions if this one went away.

If you had to fall into a giant vat of one of these condiments, which one would you choose?

Also, “Ketchup” is a weird word.

I mean, if you don't say mayo, you probably haven't had that much fun in your life

It was invented by sailors and it was a condiment that they could eat when sailing hard, or in other words when the "ketch" was up.

Mustard is so versatile with all it’s different variations . Big fan
can’t have a roast beef , Turkey, blt sandwiches without mayo. Need mayo for chuck salad , tuna and pot salad, slaw etc
I like ketchup but it’s a side for fries , it’s easily replaceable on a burger

The only things I ever use ketchup for are fries and occasionally on a burger - I can’t think of single other thing I put it on. Easily could get rid of it.

It's an ingredient in my grandpa's homemade bbq sauce. I should probably whip up a batch for the 4th.

Ranch.
ETA: I like ketchup, but of the 3 listed I would probably miss it the least.
ETA2: Mayo mixed with mustard is great on a ham, turkey, or roast beef sandwich.

Oddly, the only place I like ranch is in my buffalo chicken dip, but I get it. My own kids love the stuff.Ranch.

Most BBQ sauces use ketchup as a base. It would be hard to go thru life without BBQ sauce.
Mustard is so versatile. A little dijon in scrambled eggs, spicy brown on a sandwich, horseradish mustard on baked ham...the list goes on and on.
The only thing I use mayo for is mixing with BBQ sauce to make a sauce to dip fries in. I can move forward in life without mayo I guess.

Yeah, I voted mayo because I think it is the most replaceable.
Also factored in that I have 6 year old and increased parenting challenges in a world without ketchup.

oof. each has their place depending on what you are doing.
I voted Mayo for the idea of there being a shortage of the 3 but mostly because we make our own mayo at home sometimes. Total piece of cake if you have a food processor:
Add 1 egg, 1 TBS vinegar, salt/pepper to taste to the food processor and turn it on.
About 15 seconds later, very, very slowly start to pour in about 1.5 cups of vegetable oil - at first just a trickle at the start. Once it starts to coagulate, you can start pouring the oil in a faster. Once it's all added and combined, put it in a container and done. Will keep for a couple weeks or so in the fridge.
You can also get 'fancy' and flavor up the mayo with various spices - cayenne, cumin, etc.

I'm a big fan of mustard based BBQ, but good point.
The great part is, if all the ketchup disappeared, people would be forced to make much better molasses-based sauces.

Fixed that for you, though you have the right general idea.
Besides, bleeum is much grosser than musquirt. (Sniglets live forever!)
