I think the only condiment they use is water. And that is just to soften the bun. I don't think it is a very tasty contest.

Not sure where to put this but this Instagram post has gone viral. I know we're not supposed to use the word "Karen" because some people see it as racist but I don’t know how else to describe this woman's obstructive and deeply antisocial behaviour.

Spoiler: NSFW as she swears up a storm

Apologies once again for the double post.
