Condimentalist: /kon di men tal ist/ It was only after they had moved in together that Sandra realized she was living with a condimentalist. Fred would use up the ketchup, mustard, relish and sauces in the fridge and then put the empty containers back until the naive Sandra would reach for them. Not only would she not know they had run out of something before she went for groceries, she would be forced to eat salads without dressings, fries without ketchup or hot dogs without the fixings. The only thing that cured him was when she placed empty beer bottles in the fridge on really hot days…wah, wah! Etymology: Condiment (a preparation (a sauce or relish or spice) to enhance flavor or enjoyment)& Mentalist ((philosophy) a person who believes the doctrine that mind is the true reality and that objects exist only as aspects of the mind’s awareness)

Unfinfoodish: /un-finn-food-ish/ She got a false sense of security when she looked in the fridge. Tons of bottles, boxes of juice, cartons of milk – she had never seen so much food in there. But wait she lives with a unfinfoodisher, there is a mere ounce left in each container. Why won’t he just commit and completely empty some? Etymology: unfinish + food Created by: remistram.
