The UK's sauce habits have been revealed and it turns out that 61% of us are taking sauce with them, every time the leave the house.
New research from Uber Eats has revealed that 61% of us think it's acceptable to take our own condiments with us when we leave the house, and it's now playing a huge role in our diets, with 43% of us consuming them more than ever before. Nearly half the nation even believes that you have to have a condiment with every meal.
They've even listed out the top sauces, with some odd choices.
Of course, Ketchup reigns king of the condiments, with a fifth of Brits voting it their favourite, followed by mayonnaise in second place and brown sauce being knocked out of the top three by sweet chilli sauce which now comes at number three.
However curry sauce and piri piri are now listed as essentials as Brits have been got more adventurous, with the consumption of garlic mayo up by 11% and Piri Piri sauce by 10%.
Vingear, a fish and chip staple has been knocked down the list, with two thirds of us admitting that we rarely even use it, and a fifth of us not touching the stuff.
Henry Harding, Head of Marketing, Uber Eats, UK and Ireland said: “Dips, spreads and sauces are the perfect partners to any takeaway. Whether it’s the harmonious accompaniment of tangy sweet chilli to go with your spring rolls or creamy garlic mayo to dip your pizza in.
"On the Uber Eats app, we have a wide variety of tantalising dishes on offer to suit all tastes, from smoky, salty and spicy to sweet, mellow and tart… And don’t worry, we won’t hold any judgement against whatever unusual condiment or dish combination you might order!”
