2014年ESL之餐饮娱乐 14 Adding Condiments to Food

 

Adding Condiments¹ to Food 

Orlando: Hand me that Worcestershire sauce. 

Janine: Here. You’re not putting that on your burger, are you? 

Orlando: No, I’m using it for my hot dog. 

Janine: Wait. You’ve put ketchup², mustard, mayonnaise, and barbecue sauce on your burger, and now you’re going to put Worcestershire sauce on your hot dog? 

Orlando: Sure, you’ve got to have Worcestershire sauce on your hot dog. 

Janine: No, I don’t. I don’t know anybody else who puts Worcestershire sauce on their hot dogs. 

Orlando: You’re missing out. I just need to add a little steak sauce, horseradish, tartar sauce, and a dab³ of chili⁴ sauce and this hot dog is ready to eat. 

Janine: That sounds disgusting! Is there anything you won’t put on your food? 

Orlando: On this food? Maybe maple⁵ syrup⁶. 

Janine: What?! You’re the one missing out. Hand me that syrup. 

Orlando: That is truly revolting! 

Janine: To each his own.
