Ranch vs. Ketchup: It can sometimes be a tough call picking the right condiments to top your fries or burger.

But which one will get you the most nutrition relative to the number of calories and fat it contains? We sought to find out what condiment ranked the best.

To compile this ranking, we tried to assess condiments you'd commonly find on the tables of a restaurant (not including salt, pepper, butter - more along the sauce variety), so apologies if your go-to is left off the list. And to keep things comparable, we looked at everything in increments of one tablespoon (though, for some condiments that may be way too much or not even close to enough). We also went off the USDA's nutrition facts, unless a brand name was clearly identified, so there may be some variability between products.

Check out where your favorites ended up.
