OT: Subs: How much of your favorite condiment do you require

[inkman]

So I’ve gotten to the point of not getting any condiments on my subs for the most part. If it comes with something particular like subway uses their garlic aioli for their “great garlic” sandwich I’ll request lite sauce.  Inevitably, they end up putting 5x what I prefer and I get disgruntled.  Have at it.

@inkman I am with you.  I prefer them light, but my concept of "light" does not match that of most sub shops unless I am a regular who has instructed them.

[pastajoe]

My preference is Jersey Mike’s with a regular amount of mayo, oil and vinegar, oregano, and red pepper relish.

I am not voting on those options, as iterated.

Nope. No, sir.

[matter2003]

depends on the type of sub and the type of condiment.  These are not one answer fits all questions you are asking with subs. Neither of them are.  Both of them are "it depends."

Sauce is generally the best part, but you can’t overdo it. 

[Mustache of God]

The term you're looking for when ordering is "just a schmear".

[PromoTheRobot]

More fillings, less condiments.

I don’t think resident sandwich artists know the term

I just eat the condiments.

I like how I didn’t see who started the thread, but then immediately knew once I read the options.

I expected this juicy topic to have extended more sloppily.
