“Are you looking forward to another dinner of dry chicken breast with plain steamed broccoli and brown rice? Or how about your morning breakfast of plain oatmeal, with no butter or sugar? Bet you’re just quivering with anticipation for that.
No?
Well, who can blame you? In our condiment-happy society, you’re tempted by hundreds of varieties of special sauces and sticky syrups, all the way from the supermarket to the fast-food joint. Naturally, you crave a little something — anything — to make your bland, healthy food taste a little better.
But how can you do that and still have ripped abs?
Drop that ketchup bottle, and hold the mayo! Sure, they may taste good, but if you really want to give your meal a kick without having to kick yourself later, spice it up with herbs and spices.”
