National Condiment Month

National Condiment Month celebrates the many sauces, spreads, herbs, and spices that enhance food throughout September. Ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, ranch dressing, barbecue sauce, salsa, chutneys, and hot sauce are just a few examples of the flavorful additions included under the broad term “condiment.” In common usage, condiments are often sauces served as spreads or dips, but they can be used in many other ways as well.

The month encourages people to explore different flavors and experiment with familiar favorites. One holiday listing dates National Condiment Month’s establishment to 1992, describing it as a celebration of the variety and importance of condiments in culinary experiences. Whether you prefer a classic squeeze of ketchup or an adventurous hot sauce, September offers plenty of opportunities to add some zest to a meal.

How to Observe National Condiment Month

Celebrate by trying a new condiment, preparing a condiment-based recipe, or creating your own salsa, mustard, sauce, or spread. You can also host a tasting with friends, organize a condiment swap, or prepare a meal around a particular cuisine and its flavorful accompaniments.
