• My rating: Difficult

There are two reasons why I really struggled to solve today’s Strands puzzle. Firstly, several of the words have rather unusual spellings; TZATZIKI, SRIRACHA and AIOLI are the worst offenders on that front. This immediately complicates a game of Strands, because your eye (and brain) is naturally drawn towards common pairings, such as S with H or M or T. S with R, as in SRIRACHA? No, that’s firmly outside of my expectations.

Secondly, I don’t really like condiments. I realize this makes me an outlier among the human population (and probably compared to my dog, too, because he’s a labrador and will therefore eat anything), but it’s how I’ve always been. I like TZATZIKI, but that’s it. And don’t get me started on MAYO, which is the worst thing about food, full stop.

Anyway, all of that combined to make this Strands another tricky one. It was only once I spotted MAYO that I realized what ‘Pour it on’ referred to, which theoretically made it easier, but KETCHUP aside I had to hunt and hunt for ages to find all of the answers.
